1stlocate contact centres - UK call centre solutions v Offshore Solutions?
Can we compete on price? - Yes - our pricing structure enables you to justify retaining operations within the UK. We have removed the primary reason for you to take your contact centres offshore.

Can you compete on capability, efficiency and productivity - Yes - but our view is that we exceed this by some margin.

What does the UK consumer prefer? Our research demonstrates that UK consumers prefer (by a considerable margin) to deal with UK based call centre staff.

Why continue to create customer disharmony by managing your consumer relationships offshore? We can compete with and better many of the primary reasons for taking your operations Offshore.

Add value to your customer relationships,  add value to your bottom line and support the UK labour market; let 1stlocate Voicentre provide you with the solutions, pricing benefits and expertise that has led to many organisations moving operations overseas.

Voicentre is a subsidiary of 1st Locate and already successfully manages contact centre operations within the UK on behalf of major Utilities, Local Government and Retailers.
