Large businesses have thought of a way to increase profits by outsourcing jobs. This has been a great opportunity for those third world countries like India and the Philippines, which has been battling for the top place ever since the call center industry boom. With the help of communications technology, these corporations were offered a cheaper, more efficient option on solving their customers’ problems. How? An employee’s minimum wage in countries like the US and United Kingdom can pay around $7 – $9 per hour, while the minimum wage in third world countries can be around 9$ in a day. Imagining an 8-hour daily work, these companies can save the cost of a 7-hour shift per employee. Moreover, countries where a big portion of the population communicates in English, it is not hard to find workers to fill in the gap of their front liners.

Businesses with big and small capital alike have already considered this option for their customer service concerns. Their answering service department has never been this better. More customers are being attended to simultaneously, with lesser cost and more efficiency. Considering the cost of travel for their directors and CEOs, they still find it to be a better and cheaper solution. Handling language trainings are also easier since the internet technology have also been improved exponentially. Even board meetings are done using the same technology they have for receiving customer calls. No big change has really taken place, apart from the fact that they have foreign employees.
