broker price opinion: BPO Automation Group Was Sold – Nicole Ocean Retires - 04/25/22 02:45 PM

Reasons For When BPO Volume is Down
 
Time of Year:
   The BPO industry like any market has cycles or times of year when things are busy or slow. The longer you are in the business, the easier it is to spot the patterns.

Low Vendor Score:
   It may be that volume is down for an individual because their quality of work is suffering which would affect … (1 comments)
