BPO Activity?

By
Real Estate Agent with Chartwell Realty

Has anyone else experienced a drop in BPO orders for the last 2 weeks?  I'm trying to figure out if it's just my area.  I complete BPO's for many companies and have seen a decline with all of them.  Thanks!

I have noticed a slight decline in orders, on some days I get 5-10, and then on others zilch! I think we all need to be patient as they will come.

Slight decline.  But every Friday I get 10 to make sure that I have a nice weekend.

Yes, orders have dropped off a lot from back in the spring/summer. Not many orders lately either, but that's ok, as there are lots of other things to do instead!

Every day I think "It's over! We will never get another BPO order. EVER!"

It was especially severe Friday November 20. We had only gotten 1 - 3 orders a day for three days in a row. But Friday we only got ONE! I knew the run was over.

I got on the phone to all my regulars. Each confirmed that we were doing a good job. One regional director even said he was trying to get my name in front of some other departments in his company.

By the end of that day, Friday, we had recieved 8 orders! Monday and Tuesday were busy. But I knew it was over around the Thanksgiving holliday.

No way! We got 6 orders on Wednesday the 25th.

And we got 6 orders on Friday the 27th!

Now its December and I'm sure its over. We will never get another BPO order. EVER.

Never again!

Can't complain! I've been doing an average of 5 per week and it has doubled within the last 2 months. I only work with two BPO companies.

I know that October and November were VERY slow in this area but December has really kicked it back in gear.

Seems to be back to normal now that the new year's begun.
