High cost of in-house customer support is the major driving factor for outsourcing the CRM activities. The need for CRM services was in earlier stage driven by sales of technical services and products; however, eventually increasing cost of customer support and management lead to rise in adoption of CRM outsourcing. In addition, “Follow the sun” service provisioning can be done by outsourcing the CRM activities. This provides the customers of the company with no time delays and high quality services. CRM outsourcing eventually results into lower employee turnover allowing the companies to focus on development of their core offerings. However, higher training costs associated with the CRM outsourcing and costumer-agent cultural differences inhibiting quality of CRM services are some of the factors hindering the growth of global CRM outsourcing market. Integration of social media outreach, media channels, video chatting, and mobile phone application is expected to be the next major phase in the CRM development.
