Offshoring is having your business’s work done in another country, usually to save on costs. Many models of offshoring and business process outsourcing (BPO) exist today. Outsourcing is the process of contracting work out to a third-party company.
Why the Philippines?The Philippines has a significant cultural connection and relationship with the United States. Additionally, the Philippines is globally recognized as one of the largest English-speaking nations with English as an official language. They also have a significantly lower cost of living, allowing you to hire top talent at lower cost to you while providing fair, and often above-average, wages to your team.
What does DOXA take care of and what am I responsible for?We help you find the right talent and handle all facilities management. This includes: Workstation, computer, software, hardware, internet, IT support and security, HR management (labor laws, recruiting, interviewing, onboarding, payroll, health insurance, benefits, PTO/sick leave, etc.), and provide a thriving culture at DOXA for your employees. You handle company-specific training, work process and flow, and productivity.
Does offshoring save me money? How does that cost-savings work?Offshoring does save you money (though that is not the only benefit). Because cost of living in the Philippines is so much lower than the United States, companies can offer salaries that are simultaneously excellent rates in the Philippines and significantly less than hiring costs in the U.S.
How much does your service cost?We offer transparent pricing, no seat minimums, and no contracts. Because we tailor our service to suit your unique needs, pricing varies. Set up a call to help us understand your needs and we’ll propose a transparent price.
What types of roles can I offshore?You may be surprised to find how many roles you can offshore, as the Philippines has such a rich, highly educated talent pool. Roles suitable for offshoring include customer service, back office, insurance, creative content, digital marketing, engineering/software development, finance and accounting, data processing, virtual assistant, and more. We like to think outside the box and are confident we can find a solution to fit your needs.
How does offshoring affect my domestic team?Adding an offshore team means adding capacity to your domestic team members, freeing them up to focus elsewhere. With the excellent cultural fit between the Philippines and the United States, your domestic and offshore team members are easily able to communicate and collaborate with each other.
How do I deal with the time difference? When does the offshore team work?Your team can work standard hours in the Philippines (8am – 5pm local), or we can specifically recruit team members who are willing to work the same hours as your domestic team (for additional compensation).
How do I manage someone so far away?We provide you with ongoing support and best practices for managing your global team, as well as on-site assistance. For larger teams, we can also hire a team lead to manage and monitor performance in office.
Where does my global team work?Your team members can work in our state-of-the-art facility in Manila or work virtually, depending on your needs and budget.
Do you provide training?The employees we hire are already highly qualified and have foundational skills. In addition, we provide technology training and continued skills development. Any company-specific training is handled by you.
What if I try offshoring and it doesn’t work for me?At DOXA, we are committed to your success and finding a solution that works for you. However, for your peace of mind, we have no contract requirements.
Which industries do you focus on?Our employees are the pillars of DOXA. Our proprietary recruiting and hiring system allows us to identify the right talent for you, and our infrastructure can support almost any business requirement. Some of the most common industries and roles we support are accounting, E-Commerce, Engineering & Construction, Customer Service, Digital Marketing & Graphic Design, Financial Services, Insurance, Healthcare, Information Technology, Marketing & CRM Automation, Legal Services, Professional Services, Real Estate, Sales, and Website Development.
Do you offer part-time or project-based work?We find the best results happen when you have talent that is dedicated to your team. Our focus is providing you with the best candidate(s) to help you scale your business, while keeping your budget and unique needs in mind. While many BPO companies share workers amongst their clients, we find that this reduces the benefits for both you and the employee.
What kind of employee benefits do you offer?We believe in attracting the best talent and providing a culture that makes them want to stay. To do this, we invest in our team members and their families. DOXA offers a competitive and comprehensive benefits package, excellent career path opportunities, and ongoing personal and professional development.
