10,000 call centre jobs in two years, says report

Jobs in Jamaica's call centres should grow by 10,000 in the next two years, according to a report by analysts from the Florida-based Zagada Institute. Before then the local sector is projected to reach 20,000 jobs by the end of this year, up from 8,000 jobs.

United States-based companies, advised the report titled Caribbean Contact Center and BPO report 2008-2010, could shave 35 per cent off their costs in choosing to relocate to the 'nearshore' Caribbean.

Despite being overtaken by the Dominican Republic, Jamaica remains the leader in the English-speaking Caribbean. The Spanish-speaking Dominican Republic dominates the Caribbean with 43 per cent of the region's call centre jobs compared to Jamaica with 29 per cent.

"If you can come to Jamaica you can maintain your quality and your margins will be a little bit higher than if you were in another place," said Don Gittens, senior consultant in investment promotions for ICT Jamaica Trade and Invest who was consulted by the researchers. "If you're looking to establish a call centre overseas you have to consider the workforce, telecommunications, incentives, the economy and there must be a stable government - when you tie all that together Jamaica is attractive."

Indian call-centre workers demand money without menaces

“There's a traditional perception that debt collectors are tough, that they rough people up,” Manu Sharma, a smart Indian executive, said from his sleek office in Delhi's outskirts. “That's not how we work”.

Welcome to the touchy-feely world of outsourced debt collection, an industry in the throes of rapid expansion as India's call centres - famous for flogging computers, life insurance and mobile phones - now look to cash in on the global credit crunch.

Forget the old image of the debt collector as a menacing ogre out for his pound of flesh. Mr Sharma, who heads a 200-strong team that makes thousands of call to American homes every evening, is one of a new breed who are chasing - ever so sensitively - the growing horde of hard-up Westerners.

US recession "opportunity" for call centers: experts

Philippine call center companies should treat the recession in the United States as an opportunity rather than as an obstacle for growth and expansion, industry experts and an economist said.

During the Call Center Expo and Conference held recently, executives from call center companies said they believe that the ongoing recession in the United States, where a huge chunk of Philippine business process outsourcing or BPO clients are, will be beneficial in the long run since it will create more opportunities for the country.

Dan Reyes, president of Sitel and director of the Contact Center Association of the Philippines (CCAP) said that the US recession may have some negative impact only in the immediate term.

“There may be reduced demand in certain industries but the need to reduce costs may likely lead to more outsourced work to countries like the Philippines,” he said.

On the Mark: Who's answering the phone in the call center?

There's no good way to spin the statistics about call center performance. They're bad and getting worse.

As it does every year, Dimension Data Holdings PLC, an IT services firm in Johannesburg, South Africa, polled 300 companies in 30 countries about call center performance. The numbers are distressing.

The percentage of calls answered in less than 10 seconds fell nearly 12% over the period of 1997 to 2007, and the average time it takes to answer jumped 69%, from 23 seconds to 39. The percentage of calls abandoned by those tired of waiting for an agent more than doubled, from 6% of calls to 13.6%.

Humans solving users' problems dropped to 69% last year from 85% in 1997. Interactive voice response usage was up 158%, but that's because companies force IVR on users. The time it took help desks to reply to an e-mail went from 11 hours to 20.

Given all of the technology that CIOs have thrown at the call center problem, you'd think things would have improved. But it's not a technology issue; it's a management issue.

Call centers should hire home-based workers—expert

Philippine call centers are urged to try home-based operations to curb high attrition rate and increase employee satisfaction.

During the Annual Call Center Expo 2008, an expert on business process outsourcing (BPO) urge Philippine call center companies to hire work-at-home agents or home-based employees to solve the high turnover rate in the industry.

William Dieu, senior research analyst from callcentres.net, said that companies can lower attrition rate and foster high agent satisfaction if they will allow home-based operations.

"The Philippines should think about the benefits of hiring home-based agents," Dieu said. He added that working from home also allows employees to save on transportation cost, especially now when prices of fuel are soaring.

Dieu said that only nine percent of the companies here allow working from home and he warned that "it is not expected to increase" in the succeeding months.

Outlaw: Is Your Call Center Killing Your Business?

"Of course not!" you say. Don't be so sure.

First, let me say I appreciate there are many call centers filled with enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and customer-focused people doing their very best to address customers' questions and problems. I also know there are many call centers applying the latest techniques and technologies to make their people both efficient and effective in support of their missions. But having positive attitudes and working hard while necessary are not sufficient to ensure your call center is helping your business not hurting it.

One very significant question to ask yourself about your organization and its call centers is how aligned with the core business strategies of the organization are they? Dimension Data, in its past several year's annual global contact center survey of large enterprises, found that less than half viewed their customer service organizations and call centers as strategic to their businesses. If your enterprise's call centers are fully aligned with your business strategies consider yourself lucky, but don't stop there in determining if your call centers are doing all they can to help your business.

Lifetouch expansion could create 200 jobs

Portrait company will add on to its current facility and phase in jobs over a few years.

MUNCIE -- Lifetouch photo portrait company is expanding its inbound call center on the city's west side, adding jobs and building on to its facility.

Scott Sorensen, general manager at the Lifetouch National Contact Center, confirmed the expansion with The Star Press late Wednesday night by voicemail.

Sorensen, however, is out of town and efforts to reach him for further details have been unsuccessful.

Terry Murphy, vice president of economic development for the local Economic Development Alliance, said he believed the expansion would create around 200 jobs to be phased in over a few years.

Murphy noted the jobs were not telemarketing jobs, but customer service jobs handing inbound calls from clients.

How to Write the Perfect Call-Center Script

The debate over call-center scripts continues to rage, with individuals defending and disparaging the use of predetermined dialogue. Nevertheless, most people agree that at the very least, a script can help agents in sticky situations. “A script is always important as it is the foundation of any good dialogue. Have you ever heard of a great movie that did not have a script?” said Matthew Koenig, sales and marketing consultant with MD&E Inc., a consulting firm specializing in business-information management strategy.

However, a script is just a guideline and not a substitution for great people, great training, appropriate culture and proper processes which allow for some flexibility based on the issue at hand,” he added.

To craft the perfect script, you must focus on three essential components: writing, formatting and content.

Get Off the Soapbox

Make sure your script has the appropriate tone for the situation, and doesn't sound like the agent is reading a textbook. “Most people who write scripts are good writers and write them in ‘good written English’ as opposed to ‘good spoken English.’ And when delivered they will almost always sound ‘read,’ and we know what a disaster that is,” said Flyn Penoyer, telesales guru at Penoyer Communications.

IBM Develops Audio Masking Technology To Protect Call Center Recordings

Using speech analytics, the technology identifies and masks credit card numbers and other sensitive information in audio recordings.

Researchers at IBM's India Research Laboratory on Thursday said that they've developed a new data-masking technology to protect private information captured in call centers.

In a phone interview, J.R. Rao, senior manager of the secure software and services group at IBM's Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, N.Y., said that while theft of private information from call center recordings hasn't been a major issue, IBM wants "to proactively address a potential threat that can be used in an attack vector in call centers."

"This is a very important piece of technology because IBM takes security and privacy concerns of its customers very seriously, and it's key to maintaining customer trust," said Rao. He stressed the role that IBM Research is playing in bringing innovation to IBM's services business, a synergy often overlooked.

For IBM services clients with call centers, this technology should help ensure compliance with data security rules. "This is a technology that can be used to mask sensitive data and promote compliance with the numerous privacy and security laws that exist," said Rao.

One night @ the rural call center

NEW DELHI: It’s 1.30 in the afternoon in the township of Nellore and Niranjan is getting ready for office. He picks up a neatly ironed check shirt and a pair of matching trousers to go with. Ask him where he is headed, and he will proudly tell you he is off to his BPO centre.

The exuberance is hard to ignore. This young man of 24 is one among the new breed of employees in upcountry India. Welcome to the world of rural BPOs-- an idea that has potential to dramatically change the way people look at rural and semi-urban workforce.

While rural BPOs are changing lives for the village youth, for many companies the trend accompanies a big relief from increasing costs and nagging attrition in their urban units. Little wonder then, rural BPOs are growing at an impressive 60 per cent clip, according to estimates.

Satyam’s GramIT, HDFC’s ADFC, Lason India and Datamation are among 15-20 companies that have already made a beginning. Analysts say many are waiting in the wings to transfer simple non-voice based operations like scanning and data processing to these BPOs.

Set up six months back in Nellore, HDFC’s ADFC employs around 500 people -- Niranjan being one of them -- engaged in non-core back office operations like translating data into customer database.

Customers More Satisfied With PC Call Centers

While the industry gets high marks for courteousness, that positive is undermined by low effectiveness in handling customer issues and poor communication, a report says.

Customer satisfaction with PC call centers has improved over the last year, taking the industry out of last place, an annual survey released Tuesday showed.

Satisfaction with PC contact centers rose 8% from 2007 to score a 69 on the CFI Group's second annual Contact Center Satisfaction Index. The index uses a 100-point scale.

The PC industry's performance moved it out of last place and ahead of the cable and satellite TV industry, which scored a 66, CFI said. Nevertheless, the PC industry's customer service representatives remain among the lowest scoring across all the industries tracked by the research firm.

While the PC industry gets high marks for courteousness, that positive is undermined by low effectiveness in handling customer issues and poor communication, CFI said. Almost one in four PC customers who calls a contact center does not have his or her problem resolved.

In addition, CFI's latest study found nearly four in 10 people who have a bad experience with a PC maker's contact center are at risk of defection. As expected, customer satisfaction is significantly lower for customers with unresolved problems versus those who were able to get problems solved.

Customer satisfaction with offshore contact centers is significantly lower than onshore centers, even if problems are solved, the study found. PC companies with perceived onshore contact centers scored 77, while satisfaction with perceived offshore centers scored only 59.

Nearly all customers who tried another channel before calling a contact center went to the PC maker's Web site first. "It is in the best interest of PC companies to direct their customers to the most cost effective channel to resolve their problems," CFI said. "Online support for the PC industry clearly must improve, as it will improve satisfaction and the bottom line."

Customers unable to resolve problems through other channels typically have more difficult issues for the call center, making communication even more important, the consulting company said.

CFI's index is based on the University of Michigan's American Customer Satisfaction Index. Besides PC makers, CFI also scores the banking, cable and satellite TV, cell phone, hotel, and insurance industries, as well as government and multichannel retail.

Call Centers: A Friendly Touch

Dismal customer relations has been the standard at call centers for decades. Callers get put on hold, only to be routed to representatives who have no expertise in the problem at hand. Businesses, however, are beginning to realize that this unhappy situation is costing them money--£250 million for every £1 billion in annual revenue, according to London-based corporate analysts Data Vantage. The reason: customers tend not to buy products over the phone when they're having a bad experience. What's more, 55 percent of callers just hang up when they're getting the run-around. By contrast, a company with high-satisfaction phone services pulls in 30 to 40 percent more revenue during calls than its counterparts, according to Siemens research.

Companies such as Barclays, Siemens, Prudential and Powergen have begun to invest in new technology to make call centers more like the local shops or chatty door-to-door salesmen of yore. Barclays' Gadbrook Park Call Center, which opened last year and was named best European call center by the industry magazine Call Center Focus, based its customer-service model on Ritz-Carlton's. "We've replicated what a five-star hotel chain would deliver with bespoke service," says director Rob Hawthorn.
