Outsourcing, or working with a company outside of your own for specific tasks, is an effective way to cut some business costs and take some pressure off so you are able to put that energy towards more important tasks. There are a few different models to explore when it comes to outsourcing, such as onshore or offshore, but the model to focus on in this post is called “nearshore” outsourcing.
In nearshore outsourcing, you work together with another company that is not in the same country as you, but their location is still close to yours. This nearness ensures that the process of working together goes smoothly, with compatible time zones, understanding of cultures, and faster communications. There is even the possibility that the outsourcing will be done within a country that has a compatible currency to yours, making the process that much easier.
If you’re ready to find a nearshore outsourcing solution for your company’s needs, The Office Gurus El Salvador is a top contender.
Why Choose El Salvador as an Outsourcing Destination
El Salvador is a rapidly growing choice for nearshore outsourcing in Latin America, with English and Spanish speakers as well as a favorable time zone. Let’s dive a bit deeper into some of the reasons why it is the right choice.
- Multilingual Support
With workers that are fluent in both English and Spanish, El Salvador is an ideal choice for bilingual customer support. Being able to communicate with customers from different backgrounds helps your business grow, expanding the customer base to serve more people. It could be that someone struggles with explaining the problem they’re going through in one language, but being able to switch to their native language means that they can get the help they need. This help makes your company memorable.
These bilingual employees are trained in customer service, sales strategies, and they even are able to help with technical support when customers need it. With personalized help like this, your business is nearly guaranteed to stand out in customers’ minds. - Time Zone & Currency Compatibilities
El Salvador is in the Central Standard Time (CST) zone. While they do not observe daylight savings and there may be varying time differences throughout the year, these differences are only up to a few hours at most. This means that their time zone is closely aligned with the time zones in the Americas, making them an excellent nearshore outsourcing partner. Also, the official currency in El Salvador is the USD (US Dollar), which would eliminate the need to make complicated monetary conversions for payments. - Cost Savings
By outsourcing through The Office Gurus to El Salvador, your business is able to obtain skilled work with lower costs. You would no longer need to worry about paying for an office space for your customer support workers on site, since they have their own facilities elsewhere. Without the need for the additional office space, you also reduce the cost involved in maintaining this space. These cost savings come without the need to compromise quality of service.
Customer service agents that we work with go through solid training and career growth programs to ensure that they’ll stick around in the long term. This training also helps to guarantee the quality of service you expect. - Quality Infrastructure & Security
The infrastructure in El Salvador is one of the top rated in Latin America, making this location a dependable choice to outsource to. The call centers we work with are equipped with cutting-edge technology and reliable internet. With this tech and internet, you are able to trust them to handle the data from your customer base in a secure manner. This quality infrastructure ensures that customer interactions will be efficient and secure, and your customers will be in good hands.
