ROI understands that one of the most difficult tasks facing sales, marketing and business development professionals is the process of securing an initial "face-to-face" meeting with a new company or contact.  Successful business dialogue starts with the connection of two interested parties who share a common, well-founded belief in the value of an initial conversation.  ROI’s Meeting and Matchmaking services are focused on creating these connections.

Building upon our strong business-to-business research approach, ROI has developed the sophisticated skills required to contact business decision-makers and senior executives in order to arrange introductory meetings with our clients’ business development representatives. The ROI professionals are highly trained in the most effective approaches to introducing our clients’ value proposition, verifying each prospect’s level of interest in a conversation with our client, and confirming concrete opportunities for our clients to begin a discussion with their target audience.  With each confirmed meeting, our clients receive a concise summary of the prospect profile and confirmed meeting details to help ensure that each meeting is productive and successful.

Beyond our nuanced understanding of the delicate dance required to secure a meeting between two unfamiliar parties, ROI possesses the technological capabilities to manage the most complex agendas through our online, Oracle-based VISION CRM system.  With great respect for the profound importance and sensitivity of our role as the initial contact between our clients and their potential clients, ROI goes to great lengths to ensure that each meeting surpasses our client’s expectations.
