Outsourcing customer support is a big decision. Offshore teams can push you to maximum growth, or can alternatively bring more challenges. So when businesses go exclusively for cost they misstep and immediately regret compromising quality and structure, which need to be accounted for when choosing an outsourcing partner.

How does open communication play a role in agent performance?
- Open communication can improve the agent’s confidence.
- Giving the agents the confidence to express themselves and that their feedback is welcome.
- It improves productivity.
- Letting team members know that the company wants them to express their ideas can improve “morale”, which leads to greater productivity.
When there is an issue with an agent’s performance, how do you address and resolve it?
First, treating your agent with respect and care will help you navigate difficult situations.
- If there is an issue with an agent’s performance, we address it by:
- I have a step-by-step process that I believe works on agent performance issues:
- Touch base
- One-on-one coaching sessions
- If the above procedure does not work
- Clarificatory meetings with the HR manager only if the situation requires further discussion or investigation; I also consider it a safe venue for employees to express how they feel and how to resolve specific issues with a trusted individual within the company.
How do you keep your team motivated?
Some of the techniques I use to motivate my team or team member:
- Schedule team-building activity
- Team meetings or touch base
- Allowing a team member to work freely on a task, shows them that you trust them that they can perform their duties effectively. Trust encourages loyalty and motivates them to perform at their best.
- Celebrate milestones. Big or small wins
- Promote work-life balance.
How does Pac Biz differ from other contact centers?
I’ve come up with three reasons:
- Pac Biz is distinct from other contact centers in the way we maintain open lines of communication, particularly with the owner.
- The company’s values and how they are encouraged, such as personal growth. Many leaders began as CSR and were promoted throughout the organization.
- Non-toxic working environment
We appreciate you Nikki!
