    What is outsourced customer service?

    Customer service outsourcing is the process of hiring an offshore team or team-member to fulfill mostly, contact centre-related tasks. Outsourcing customer-handling tasks is a viable option for businesses, especially for SMEs resulting in increased staff retention and customer satisfaction rates.

    With outsourced customer service, not only will you be able to meet the constant change in demand of your customers but you’ll also experience an increase in turnaround times, improved quality of output and overall, business growth.

    Why do businesses outsource customer service offshore?

    Customer service is a critical aspect of any business, with the potential to impact profits and the bottom line. In fact, a staggering 78% of customers disengage with a brand due to a negative customer experience. As a result, investing in high-quality customer service is crucial for businesses. Not only does it leave customers satisfied, but it also fosters sustainable business growth.

    Many businesses are turning to the offshore market to leverage the abundant talent available overseas. Offshore customer service and call centre representatives, particularly in the Philippines, are renowned for their exceptional English-speaking skills and unwavering dedication to customer service. This has led businesses to hire highly skilled and qualified customer service representatives from the offshore market, often at a cost savings of up to 70% compared to local recruitment. With offshore customer service outsourcing, businesses can achieve cost-effective solutions without compromising on quality or customer satisfaction.
