The Economics of Appointment Setting: How South African Talent Reduces Cost-Per-Meeting by 60%

Outbound prospecting can be expensive.
US, UK, and Australian companies often pay $4,500–$8,500/month per local hire, yet struggle to maintain a high number of qualified meetings.

South African Appointment Setters provide a cost-effective solution:

• Lower salaries (USD $1,500–$3,000/month)
  
• High outreach output
  
• Multi-time-zone coverage
  
• Strong cultural alignment
  

This combination reduces cost-per-meeting (CPM) by 50–70%, enabling faster pipeline growth at a fraction of the cost.

Why Local Hiring Drives High CPM
