Basis of Call Center Outsourcing in Tanzania.

Smart companies always do whatever they can to eliminate costs. Budgeting is key as it can help businesses invest more into the aspects of their company that they want to focus on such as employee appreciation or newer equipment.   One way that many companies consider cutting costs is through outsourcing call centers. Some industry leaders firmly stand by this decision, believing that it alleviates costs that can afford to be cut down. Others, however, disagree with this decision and believe that keeping call centers close to home is worth the additional costs.

Outsourcing customer service (Call Center) allows companies to re-focus their time and resources on other aspects of the business, such as product development, content creation, and sales. Rather than assigning more employees to their customer service department, companies can hire an external service to oversee a specific business function, e.g. existing or small business customers. These outsourced services can also take over a business’s call center completely. This means the company is outsourcing all of the operations involved with that call center, rather than just one or two functions.  

 There are many pros and cons to call center outsourcing that businesses weigh when considering whether or not to move forward with the decision. Below are a few we pull together that you can consider when making your decision.

Advantages of Outsourcing Call Center to us.

It costs Less

One of the primary reasons for outsourcing customer service is that it vastly lowers call center costs. Interviewing, hiring, and training call center employees can take longer than expected. You need to make sure these employees have the skills to handle interpersonal communication, gain knowledge on the company and products, and solve customer problems. An outsourced call center can take some of this weight off of your company’s shoulders by handling staffing. That way, you can refocus your time on other tasks that require your attention. If your company is already international or is considering international expansion, it’s helpful to have outsourced call centers.

Increase In flexibility

Outsourced call center employees work for your company when needed, rather than as full-time employees. Whenever a company has shifting needs, they can quickly and easily assign outsourced call centers to meet those needs, knowing that you don’t need to upcharge for changes or pay overtime. Instead, these employees will just continue to be paid for the hours they spend on the phone.

You can provide 24/7 customer service.

24/7 customer service is something that has become expected by consumers. However, it’s unbelievably costly to pay local employees to work overnight shifts.   By having an outsourced call center, you can easily cover 24 hours of the day.

You can easily transfer overflow calls.

There are certain times of the year when there’s a higher call volume than usual, like around holiday seasons. During these times it can be difficult to manage a sudden spike in customer service calls. By having an outsourced call center whose job is to handle overflow, you can easily transfer calls to the call center without breaking a sweat.  

It can help with the quality of service. 

The primary benefit of outsourcing your contact centers to a capable third party is that you’re getting a qualified team that has the best and most specialized skills to help your customers.   If your in-house team doesn’t have the skillset to offer this kind of dedicated support, outsourcing can provide these resources at the flip of a switch.   For example, if you’re running a healthcare service, an outsourcing company can supply a team of trained nurses ready to respond to questions at a moment’s notice. Similarly, with financial services, outsourcing can provide on-hand experts in areas like money transfer, payments, and credit card transactions.
