Call Centre BPO's & Outsourcers
Call Centre Outsourcers (also known as Business Process Outsourcers or BPOs) provide a range of core customer management functions such as customer care, telemarketing, inbound calls, sales, customer service, complaints, outbound calls and technical support.
These functions are typically clustered together under the term 'front-office' which typically involve any functions that deal directly with a customer. Many outsourcers and BPOs also provide back-office functions that are not customer-facing like accounting, claims processing, form processing, fulfilment etc and you can find providers of thes functions in our Back Office Outsourcers category.
Aside from just customer and call centre outsourcing, modern business process outsourcers also provide services across all customer channels including live chat, email, SMS and video chat as can often provide full integration with supplementary services such as campaign management, digital design, mail fulfilment and more.
Whilst there can be a perception that your own business will always look after your customers better than third-party providers, there are hundreds of specialist Business Process Outsourcing businesses whose very survival is based on ensuring they provide an exceptional experience for you and your customers.
Benefits of Call Centre Outsourcing
Outsourcing customer and back-office functions to a third-party provider also delivers other benefits including:
- Improved efficiency
- They are experts as this is their core function so they typically do it better and more efficiently
- You can tap into multiple experts such as forecasters, trainers, IT specialist etc rather than needing to employ them directly.
- Scalability - Increase and decrease your workforce to align with your workload
- Flexibility - BPO's can help extend functionality that you otherwise may not be able to provide on your own (extended hours, advanced technology)
- Focus - you can focus on your core business whilst your BPO partner manages your customers
- Costs - As well as improved efficiencies saving you money, there are also other benefits with cost reductions with offshore resources where that's appropriate for your business.
