Rural Telecommunity Center's Telemarketing

So, what is Telemarketing? As a result of increasing regional utilization of telecommunications and other advanced technologies, a natural extension is to use the RTC to create a Telemarketing enterprise that contracts with clients from around the world to sell their products or conduct surveys over the telephone. Many rural communities have created telemarketing businesses to create additional part-time and full-time employment opportunities and to bring additional buying power into a community. Many corporations prefer to use these rural telemarketing firms because of the workethic practiced by rural individuals. In conjunction with the marketing opportunities presented by the RTC's InterNet Hub, the telemarketing service can be used to further enhance the exporting of local services, expertise and products within a region, nationally or internationally.
