Why should I outsource my customer service operations?
It’s simple: scalability. In-house contact centers often struggle to keep up with contact volumes during peak periods. PFS offers the branded customer service typically seen only with in-house contact centers, plus the scalability to support fluctuating demand.
Need to augment your existing staff during busy periods? Want to develop a shared model that blends in-house and outsourced customer care? Or are you looking for highly branded, dedicated support? Whatever your needs, PFS can craft the ideal solution for your business. Beyond staffing scalability, our flexible solution also meets varied requirements for language and hours of operation, all while presenting a consistent, on-brand experience.
What channels and verticals does PFS have experience with?
We work with clients in an array of industry verticals, including health and beauty, consumer packaged goods, apparel, jewelry and more, through both DTC and B2B channels.
One of our specialties is providing product consultations based on your unique business requirements. Our highly customized solutions mean we can advise customers on the right beauty product for their skin type as well as work out unique payment terms for a dental practice ordering toothpaste samples.

How do you recruit, train, and retain quality talent?
We believe that a memorable customer experience starts with friendly, knowledgeable agents who are passionate about your brand. We consult with you to create a hiring profile that represents your brand in exactly the way you want. You can participate as much or as little as you want during the hiring and training process, whether that means bringing in your own staff to train agents or simply providing your brand’s training materials and letting the PFS professionals take it from there.
We equip agents with the resources, incentives and competitive compensation they need in order to provide your customers with a positive, loyalty-inspiring interaction. This includes incentive programs for outstanding performance, ongoing training, an annual appreciation week and an engaging work environment that includes displays of our clients’ products.
What type of security and technology do you use in your contact centers?
All PFS facilities require badge access and our systems are PCI Level 1, V3.2.1 compliant. We use an advanced customer service platform powered by Amazon Connect to manage our onsite and remote workforce, including forecasting activities, call routing, a proprietary CRM, secure IVR payments, call monitoring, AI-powered sentiment analysis and more.
Our proprietary CRM is fully integrated with the platform and empowers agents to provide personalized support with access to detailed customer account information via the order management system, as well as advanced functionality such as work-flows, contact dispositioning, customer appeasements and more.

Our agents are ambassadors for your brand with a solid understanding of your business goals and about a passion for helping you achieve them.
