Why OutsourcePartner

Native quality, for less than an in-house employee.

An employee in your office costs far more than their salary. With us you pay one all-in hourly rate, and it's lower than the total cost of an in-house employee in the Netherlands, Belgium or Germany.

In-house employee

What you pay on top of salary

  • Employer contributions, holiday pay and pension
  • Recruitment, selection and months of ramp-up
  • Workstation, hardware and software licences
  • Paid sick leave and holidays
  • A manager and quality control
  • Rehiring when someone leaves
  • Permanent contracts and notice periods

OutsourcePartner

One all-in hourly rate

  • No employer costs or payroll admin
  • Recruitment and training included
  • No workstation or hardware costs
  • Cover for sickness and holidays arranged
  • Dedicated team lead and weekly QA included
  • Attrition is our problem, not yours
  • Scale up or down monthly

Why we can do this

Nearshore

Our team works from lower-cost countries, one hour from your time zone.

No office needed

Our agents work remotely on their own equipment; you pay for no workstation.

Productive hours only

You pay for the hours we work for you, not for sickness, holidays or ramp-up.

How much you save depends on language, hours and country. In the first call we work it out for your situation.

Work it out in a call

What you get with us

Everything that makes an in-house team good, without building it yourself.

Native speakers

Your customers are helped in their mother tongue, in the right tone for your market. Flemish for Belgium too.

One team, one point of contact

The same people on your account week after week, with a team lead who knows your product.

Start small, scale fast

Begin with one agent and a one-month pilot. Then scale up or down monthly.

Nearshore and 24/7

One hour from Central European Time, and available 24/7 if you need it.

Quality you can see

Weekly QA scores, calibration with your team and a fixed report. No surprises.

Secure, in your systems

We work in your CRM and help desk with personal accounts. NDA per agent and a data processing agreement.

Why companies switch to us

Four problems we keep seeing, and how we solve them.

Languages that are hard to hire

Recruiting Dutch, German or Italian speakers takes months, and keeping them is expensive.

We recruit native speakers from our own network, screened on language and call skills.

Too small for a big call centre

Large providers ask for annual contracts and dozens of seats.

You start with one agent and a one-month pilot.

Managing freelancers yourself

A platform finds you people, but onboarding, coaching and replacing them is still your job.

We handle recruitment, training, QA and daily management.

No view on quality

After go-live you hear little, until the complaints arrive.

A weekly report, QA scores and a fixed check-in with your team lead.

Frequently asked questions

Where is OutsourcePartner based?

Our company is registered in Alexandria, Egypt: nearshore, just one hour ahead of Central European Time. Our agents work remotely from all over the world, always on the office hours of your market.

How much does it cost to outsource customer service or sales?

We charge an hourly rate per agent, or for sales programs an hourly rate plus commission. The rate depends on language, hours and channel. You receive a tailored quote after a 30-minute call.

Is there a minimum number of agents or a minimum term?

No. You can start with one agent. We prefer to begin with a one-month pilot.

How fast is a team live?

On average within about 14 working days after sign-off, including selection and training.

Where do the agents work?

Remotely, from several countries, always on your market's office hours. Where needed we work from our own on-site location, so hybrid is possible too.

How do you handle our customer data?

We work only inside your own systems with personal accounts. Every agent signs a confidentiality agreement and we sign a data processing agreement.

Why not just hire a freelancer on a platform?

A freelancer you have to find, onboard, manage and replace yourself. We deliver a managed team with a team lead, QA and backup, as a business partner.
