Description
In this episode of Advice from a Call Center Geek, we take you into the keynote speech that Tom gave at the Google Complex in Boulder Colorado to a group of contact center outsourcing company leaders which was sponsored by NICE, Google, and Outsource Consultants.We've transitioned Expivia from just being a "contact center outsourcer" to embracing our role as a "CX technology partner" and give the full case study about this in this episode.The shift in perspective?It's not just about answering calls and chats anymore; it's about leveraging technology to enhance customer experience.Key takeaways:• Adapting to Change: Reframing our identity alleviates the fear that comes with evolving business landscapes.• Tech Investments Then: It used to be about direct ROI and customer value for each tech buy. • Tech Investments Now: We view technology holistically. Not every tool will promise immediate ROI, but together, they drive value and competitive advantage. • The Reality of Agent Assist: While I grapple with its direct profitability, it's undeniable that it's becoming an industry norm, crucial for winning new business.As we continue this journey, our focus remains: Balancing tech investments to ensure both our growth and enhanced customer value.If you are a BPO, 2024 will be a huge year to think through these changes.We're gearing up to launch OttoQA, the game-changing QA automation tailored for smaller contact centers. But here's the twist — we want you in our inner circle before anyone else.
