## Why do Orum users need a virtual assistant?

Orum exists to take the dead time out of calling. Operator dials across several numbers at once, detects a human answer, skips the mailboxes and phone trees and puts a caller into the conversation in about a second. That is only worth paying for when a trained person is sitting there when the connect arrives. Most teams cannot fill the seat every day: reps get pulled into demos and renewals, the session is canceled at short notice, and the list somebody cleaned last month goes cold. An assistant holds the session open. They prepare the list, sit in the Salesfloor next to your reps, take the connects, ask your qualifying questions, book the meeting, and write the outcome into Salesforce, HubSpot, Outreach or Salesloft the same session. Consent and do-not-call scrubbing come first, and the team lead scores recordings against your scorecard.

## What can a virtual assistant do inside Orum?

**Dial sessions in Operator**
: Sits the session on a headset and a wired connection so a live answer reaches a person immediately, opens with your approved line rather than a pause, and never leaves a connect listening to silence.

**List preparation**
: Builds the session list from the Salesforce report, HubSpot list or Outreach sequence you approved, removes records your rules exclude and scrubs against do-not-call records before the first dial.

**Number quality with Scout**
: Acts on what Scout reports about invalid and low-quality numbers, retires dead numbers on the record instead of redialing them and flags accounts where every number on file is wrong.

**Qualifying and booking**
: Asks the qualifying questions you wrote, books the meeting into the owner's calendar while the prospect is still live and sends the invite and agenda before ending the call.

**Voicemail and follow-up**
: Drops your recorded message where a mailbox answers and sends the email or sequence step that matches the outcome, so a connect is never the end of the thread.

**CRM and sales engagement logging**
: Writes the disposition, notes and next step into Salesforce, HubSpot, Outreach or Salesloft in the same session, so the rep taking the meeting reads what was actually said.

**Salesfloor sessions**
: Joins the shared calling room with your reps, takes live coaching from the manager listening in and posts the win to your team channel when a meeting is set.

**Coaching and QA**
: Reviews what Coach flags on objections, talk time and scorecards with the team lead each month, then practices the objections that are costing meetings before the next session.

## Frequently asked questions

### What does an Orum virtual assistant do in a dialing session?

They prepare the list first: your Salesforce report or Outreach sequence, filtered to what you approved and scrubbed against do-not-call records. Then they sit the session on a headset, take every connect Operator routes over, open with your line and qualify against your criteria. A fit becomes a meeting booked into the owner's calendar with the invite sent before hanging up. Mailboxes get your recorded drop and the matching email. Dispositions and notes are written the same session, and the day ends with connects, conversations and meetings reported.

### Do you have Orum certified assistants?

Orum does not run a certification for callers, and we do not claim one. Our outbound staff train on Orum before joining a client account: preparing lists from your CRM or sales engagement tool, sitting a session in Operator, handling a connect that lands mid-sentence, voicemail drops, dispositions, what Scout reports about number quality, and Salesfloor etiquette while a manager is listening in, then supervised calls scored by a team lead. AssistBPO holds no Orum partner, reseller or affiliate status. The seats and recordings stay in your account.

### How much does an Orum virtual assistant cost?

Plans depend on hours, desks and coverage. Get a staffing plan within 1 business day. Outbound calling, qualifying and appointment setting sit on the Sales & lead generation desk, priced per person for a block of monthly hours in your time zone, never per dial, per connect or per meeting booked. You supply the Orum seat and the CRM or sales engagement license, which are the only tools the assistant needs from you, and we add no markup to either.

### How do we add the assistant to our Orum workspace?

Your admin invites them as a user, assigns the number pool and the lists or reports they may dial, and keeps settings such as dialing ratios, recording and billing with you. They sign in from a managed device with multi-factor authentication under their own login, so every session, connect, disposition and recording is traceable to them in your reporting and in the CRM. Our staff are employed, background-checked and under NDA. Deactivate the user and access ends immediately, with your data untouched.

### How do you keep parallel dialing compliant?

Consent comes first: lists are scrubbed against the national do-not-call registry where one exists and against your internal list, and we dial only records you confirm you have a lawful basis to contact. One assistant sits one session, so a live answer reaches a person rather than dead air, and dialing ratios stay where your admin set them. Calls run inside the hours that apply where the person is, the assistant names your company and the reason at once, and opt-outs are actioned the same day across every list.

### How do you keep call quality up at that speed?

Speed only helps when the conversation is good, so every assistant works from your talk track and your qualifying criteria rather than improvising. Managers can listen in live from Salesfloor and coach mid-session. The team lead reviews recordings and what Coach flags on objections and talk time each month against your scorecard, and the assistant practices the objections that keep losing meetings. If connect rates drop, we look at list quality and number health before asking anyone to dial harder.
