Can I select my own team members?

For all engagements, we offer sample Ninja profiles according to your requests and hiring objectives. With our full service engagement model, we source, hire, train, and manage all of your end to end CX needs to ensure the highest service levels for your business. Should you prefer a more hands on approach, we can also bring the candidates to you and let you maintain full management and oversight of your team, including hiring, training and ongoing operational oversight.

What are some examples of business tasks that fall beneath professional services?

Professional services is indeed a broad umbrella as our capabilities extend across various industries and lines of business. Many roles that require specialized training to help keep your business running day-to-day, but come with significant costs for full-time in-house staffing, can be outsourced as a flexible service line. If you have any additional pain points beyond the traditional customer support needs, we can work with you to find the right talent to service as an extension of your team and flexibly cover that business gap.

What kind of technical expertise does SupportNinja leverage for its clients?

We provide technical customer support outsourcing related to any software, hardware, or tech product. You just tell us your needs — we’ll build and train a team dedicated to your account. No technology is beyond the skills of our teams.

Is outsourcing really more cost-effective?

We have proven cost efficiency savings for hundreds of clients, across niches such as eCommerce, Banking/Fintech, SaaS, Healthcare, and more. Building and sustaining long-term in-house CX teams often involve two to three times the investment you'd spend outsourcing to us. Outsourcing can also eliminate time-consuming work like hiring, onboarding, training, QA, and innovative reporting capabilities while eliminating overhead for you.

What CRM do you use for tracking customer interactions?

If you already have a CRM system or tool in place, like Zendesk, SupportNinja can help build custom reporting dashboards around KPIs. The way we track customer interactions guarantees complete transparency and data accuracy. We promise seamless integration with 100+ support software! It is very likely we’re familiar and experienced with your chosen CRM. On the other hand, if your company doesn't currently have a CRM tool in place, we can personally recommend tools that are best suited for your needs.

How are customer interactions tracked?

‍We track customer interactions and inquiries through our CRM. If you already have a CRM system or tool in place, SupportNinja can help build custom KPI reporting dashboards to track customer interactions and ensure transparency. If not, we can personally recommend tools that might be well suited for your needs.

Are customer calls recorded?

It depends on the VOIP system or provider your company chooses to use, but we do recommend a system that allows for auto-recording. It allows us to refer to historical calls if needed for reference and training purposes. If you do not have a VOIP system in place we are happy to make recommendations based on your needs.

Brand-safe customer success is a priority. How would you provide that?

We know that a prevalent concern when considering outsourcing is that external personnel won’t perform to the expected level. Our Ninjas regularly make customers fall in love with our clients' businesses. No agent will ever interact with one of your customers before we're certain that they're knowledgeable about the company. This includes extensive pre-placement training in both soft skills and hard skills. When you work with us, we want you to no see no difference between your Ninjas and your internal teams.
