Alexandria, VA — June 20, 2008

Teresa Sinel, Director of Brand Ambassador Relations with VIPdesk, will be presenting “The Home-Based Call Center: How to Make Yours a Success” on June 25, 2008 at Call Center Week. This two-hour workshop will review how to successfully launch and manage a home-based call center, covering topics including the growth of the home-based call center industry, benefits of home-based call centers vs. brick-and-mortar call centers, and when to choose a home-based vs brick-and-mortar call center.

VIPdesk, a pioneer of premium home-based contact center solutions and Concierge Services, specializes in delivering virtual call center solutions and concierge services to national brand leaders in several industries including retail, travel, auto and financial services.

The home-based, or virtual call center model has increased in popularity in recent years as an alternative to the traditional brick-and-mortar call center. Virtual call centers allow businesses to cut costs while simultaneously increasing customer satisfaction. There are estimated to be over 150,000 home-based customer service agents in the U.S. today, a number that is predicted to grow exponentially in the near term.

“I am excited to have the opportunity to connect with the Call Center Week audience, and really get into detail about what makes the home-based call center model work,” says Sinel. “Call Center Week attendees are an impressive audience of forward-thinking call center industry executives and I am really looking forward to collaborating with them.”

In addition to presenting “The Home Based Call Center: How to Make Yours a Success”, Sinel will be the chairperson for the Talent Management track of the conference, moderating all Talent Management sessions.
