Buyer questions
Common questions about customer support
Can outsourced support handle live customers?
Yes, but start with approved scripts, clear escalation rules, and daily QA before the assistant owns a queue alone.
What should stay with the in-house team?
Keep refunds, legal complaints, high-value accounts, and policy exceptions with the manager until the support plan is mature.
