In-house Call Center VS. Outsourced Call Center
Almost all successful businesses face the need to expand their customer contact division at some point,
and a cost-benefit analysis must be made between an in-house call center vs. outsource call center. This
may be a question of hiring one virtual assistant, or dozens of contact center agents outreaching and
responding to your end customers
via phone, email, web chat and social
media. In either case, it’s prudent to
consider the benefits and costs in
deciding what’s best for your
company, between an in-house call
centers vs. outsourced call center.
IN-HOUSE CALL CENTER VS.
OUTSOURCED CALL CENTER:
COST
It’s no secret that the most cost efficient way of running a contact center is to outsource it.
One low monthly fee that can be easily broken down to a cost-per-call, replaces all the large, variable,
ongoing and often unknowable expenses associated with:
– Acquiring and maintaining new call center space and equipment,
– Installing secure technology and keeping it up to date,
– Hiring and training agents, coaches, supervisors, managers, and IT personnel,
– Re-hiring and re-training staff due to turnover,
– Additional accounting and HR support staff,
– Providing full salaries and benefits even during off peak seasons,
– Paying out severance packages for unexpected lay-offs,
– Additional maintenance contractors, utility bills, and insurance,
– Integrating operations within your existing business structure,
– Maintaining focus on your core business without disruption to sales, service or production.
