    Ep 18 - What's the True Cost of Your In-House Contact Center? (And How Does It Compare to Outsourcing?)

    Deep CX is back to compare the costs of running an in-house contact center with the costs of outsourcing. It’s not as straightforward as you might think!  Sure, there are the obvious expenses like wages, but don’t forget about the intangible factors like brand impact and employee engagement. There’s also human capital, attrition, technical infrastructure, and a lot more to consider. Bottom line, don’t make any big decisions regarding your contact center before listening to this episode to better understand the costs! Want to dig into some hard numbers?

    Ep 17 - You're Asking the Wrong Questions Part 3: Contact Center BCP & the RFP

    In this final installment of "You're Asking the Wrong Questions," we explore how world-shaking events like the pandemic have forever changed Business Continuity Plans (BCPs) in customer contact centers. There’s undoubtedly been a shift from traditional models to agile, hybrid frameworks that blend on-premises and remote work. This necessary sea change has created a critical need for tailored BCPs that focus on maintaining exceptional customer experience during crises. But how do you ensure that your outsourced customer care partner has the ideal BCP for you? Hint: You don’t get there by asking the same BCP-related questions you did five years ago.

    Ep 15 - You're Asking the Wrong Questions Part 1: Contact Center Technology & the RFP

    Deep CX is back with the first installment in our three-part series: You're Asking the Wrong Questions, based on our latest e-book of the same name. We hate to correct you like this in public, but hear us out! All too often, RFPs are based on boilerplate or outdated questions. If your RFP questions are a little stale or generic, chances are you’re not going to get the full picture. It’s possible you’ll end up signing on with a vendor that isn’t the right fit, and you’ll be back at square one with a new RFP process much sooner than you’d like. Part 1 of You're Asking the Wrong Questions delves into contact center technology. In this episode, we unpack Blue Ocean's recommendations as an outsourcer supporting some of the world's best brands in verticals from SaaS to travel and tourism. Let's dive in!
