Outsourcing customer service

There could be a number of reasons you are looking at call centre outsourcing solutions.

Our highly trained team can handle a number of contact centre services to ensure your business can deliver a premium customer experience.

Outsourcing customer service

One of the reasons you may require outbound contact centre services is that business growth could be increasing quicker than your current infrastructure can handle.

Although a great problem to have long term, in the short term it can also be a haven for poor customer service which can lead to bad reviews which may harm your brand. This is without mentioning customer loyalty too.

By locating the right partner with additional call centre services, you can route calls to experienced overflow agents. They can maintain good customer experiences, keep customers happy and avoid those bad online reviews.

Outsource all your inbound calls

It’s not only time-consuming and costly to establish an experienced, well-informed call centre operation; it can also be difficult to get the right team in place. 

Using our outsourced call centres not only is more cost effective in preventing the need for further investment in infrastructure, but it also leaves your team more time for what they do best. 

You can concentrate on the current tasks of your business whilst resting easy knowing you have people on hand who can handle any incoming calls that come through. Outsourcing customer service can be a great way to manage costs whilst harnessing business growth.

Why use an outsourced call centre like Consumer Links?

Whilst there are many options out there when browsing contact centre outsourcing.
However, not all contact centre operations are equal.
Here are some key points why Consumer Links should be your partner for your contact centre solutions.

UK owned with benefits
of outsourcing

Our HQ operations are UK based, and our South Africa contact centre is managed by UK director who is permanently residing

...

in our Durban office.

Factoring this into our business means we can deliver the economic benefits of an outsourced contact centre, whilst having the familiarity and security of UK call centres.

It also means we can be in your UK offices to deliver and assist you with understanding any reports, as well as hear any suggestions for improvement that you may have.

Full administrative
access

We also give you and your team full administrative access so you have real time monitoring and performance

...

management. Our customer service management team can conduct daily, weekly, or monthly reporting meetings with your staff to ensure that you are as well-informed as possible.

With this, you can exercise full control of the project as if we were an extension of your own in-house team.

Cost
efficient

Not only do we free up your valuable time, but we also save you money. Our call centre operations are

...

some of the most cost-effective in the market, and our prices are highly competitive.

This allows your business to reallocate budgets to developing other areas of the business such as product development, marketing or even hiring staff for other departments.

Flexible
staffing

We understand that your needs may change over time, which is why we offer a flexible staffing model.

...

We can adjust the size of our team to match your requirements, ensuring that your business can stay agile to customer demand whilst only paying for the staff you need.

High-quality results
at a lower price

Our South African call centre services are managed by an experienced call centre director from our UK operation who

...

is permanently based in our Durban office. This ensures that there is a continually high standard of service and that our team are always up to date with the latest industry developments, technologies and trends.

By dedicating a team to just one aspect of a large business, our team have become experts in delivering a service that your business needs. This often transpires into a better customer experience and greater customer satisfaction.

A time zone that
boosts your business

A lot of businesses believe that collaboration is difficult when operating across different time zones.

...

However, different time zones can create powerful options too.

By operating in different time zones you can have your business active for more hours each day. At our South African call centre we are only 1-2 hours ahead (Daylight saving dependant) of the UK.
This makes collaboration, meetings and our management easily accessible for you and your team.

No language
barriers

In some cases when outsourcing to contact centres, it may be more difficult to understand accents or cultural

...

differences. However, if you use call centre services in contact centres such as our own in Durban, you can eradicate these issues.

Why is this?

South Africa has become a popular destination for outsourced contact centres due to it’s neutral accent.
Your customers are more likely to understand what is being said to them and vice versa, our centre staff will be able to understand any issues or problems your customers may have.

This creates better customer experiences than you will receive from other businesses offering a contact centre service.

Highly skilled
workforce

At Consumer Links, the employees working in our South African contact centre are skilled, professional and have extensive

...

experience working within the customer service and call centre industry.

There is a large talent pool within the Durban area that allows us to choose only the best of the best to work on our clients projects.

We also invest in regular training for our staff so they can provide an excellent level of service that is on par with or exceeds what you would expect from your own in-house team.

Data secure contact centre outsourcing

Our stringent data security measures are a key component in how we deliver the very best service.

...

As a UK based company, we are governed by UK law and abide to all data protection protocols across all our locations. This includes abiding by General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

We also have a strict internal policy in place to protect your data. Only employees who need access to your data will have it and it is stored securely on our network.
