DEFINITION

What is customer service outsourcing and why outsource it?

Clear definition, when it applies and what it solves for companies in Barcelona.

DEFINITION

Customer service outsourcing -also known as customer service outsourcing or customer service BPO- consists of delegating to a specialized provider the comprehensive management of support channels: WhatsApp Business, email, web chat, telephone, social networks and forms. In Barcelona, Metrickal operates from its headquarters at Ausias Marc 141 (Eixample), with remote teams trained in Asia, LATAM, Africa and Europe. Flexible time coverage, support in up to 14 languages, LOPDGDD and RGPD compliance guaranteed by the Account Manager in Spain.

WHEN DOES IT APPLY?

Internal SAC team saturated: you lose customers due to lack of follow-up on WhatsApp or emails, common in 22@ startups in hypergrowth.

Need for multilingual coverage (ES + CA + EN + FR + IT + DE) that the local labor market does not provide the necessary flexibility.

Seasonal peaks, Mobile World Congress, ISE, 4YFN, tourist season, which do not justify permanent hiring under the agreement

Focus on core business: free your Barcelona team from repetitive SAC level 1 tasks to focus on product, sales or expansion.
