In-House vs. Outsourced Customer Support: The Real Cost Comparison

Описание: 💡 In-house vs outsourced support — read the full breakdown: https://bit.ly/3RUic1P

Most companies compare hourly rates and call it a day. But hourly rate is maybe 10% of the real cost. The other 90%? That's what never makes it onto the slide.

In this video, Anna breaks down the true total cost of running customer support in-house — and why the math almost always surprises people. From hiring ($4,700 per agent before day one) to attrition rates of 30–45% per year, from hidden management overhead to compliance certifications that never stop costing money — the real number is often 40–70% higher than what teams expect.

Anna also tackles the #1 fear around outsourcing: losing control. She flips the question — and shows what a well-designed outsourced operation actually looks like: dedicated teams trained on your product, 100% QA coverage, real-time analytics, AI-powered workflows, and the ability to scale by 50 agents in a month without a single layoff.

Real numbers from real operations: CSAT above 80%. QA success rates above 90%. Cost reductions of up to 70%. First-call resolution above 80%.

If you're evaluating your support setup — this one's worth the full watch.
