Using Work@Home Agents as the Alternative to Bricks & Mortar Centers and Sending Business Offshore
The Telework Coalition (TelCoa), the only non-profit membership organization dedicated to promoting virtual, mobile, and distributed work through education, technology, and legislation has joined forces with Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC) to promote the Work@Home Agent model as an unbeatable alternative to both the traditional bricks & mortar model and sending jobs offshore.
“Work@Home Agents make unqualified economic sense, when compared to the financial costs and benefits of traditional bricks and mortar centers,” said Jack Heacock, Senior Vice President and Co-Founder of the Telework Coalition. “Research shows that more than $1 million can annually be added to the bottom line per 100 agents who Work@Home,” he added.
The Work@Home model greatly enlarges the available labor pool. “We can now employ those with disabilities, retirees, stay-at-home parents, military and government spouses, wounded Veterans, part-timers, and those in rural and tribal areas,” commented Chuck Wilsker, TelCoa’s President and CEO. “The greatly increased availability of high speed Internet access, coupled with phones connected through the internet (VoIP), has proven to be the tipping point making the Work@Home agent model a real winner,” he concluded.
