NVDA is really hot right now, but does it still have room to run, and if so, what would the window be on that?

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

As the hottest stock of 2016, we’ve seen continuous growth for an entire year and a half, especially with the release of their 2017 Q1 earnings. Are there any signs that growth will slow down anytime soon? If so, does anyone have an idea as to when that is most likely?

Dream bathrooms turned into nightmares for two customers who say they were forced to sign off on shoddy work

Two women who each paid Bathstore £5,000 to install new bathrooms in their homes have claimed the retailer used cowboy builders who caused leaks and damage to their homes – and then tried to intimidate them into signing off their shoddy work.

Nicola Milburn from Gravesend in Kent said sales staff had promised that it would take five days to install her dream bathroom, but instead it turned into a nightmare of leaking toilets, botched pipework and failed promises. Milburn, who works in property management, said having the work done was “the worst experience of my life”.

Reasons why clients love outsourcing inbound call center services

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J
The concept of outsourcing has been around for a long while now and there are a plethora of reasons as to why customers opt to come back. The benefits of outsourcing are varied and range from cost savings to business expansion. Many of the leading inbound call center service providers have collaborated with organizations from various industries such as consumer electronics, travel and tourism, healthcare etc.

Let us discuss about some of the reasons at length about why exactly do clients opt for outsourcing inbound services to a professional agency.

  • Cost saving

Reduction of costs was, and continues to be the frontline answer to the question as to why companies look to outsource some of their activities to professional agencies. It allows them to deliver top-notch customer service without having to invest in new technology in their own premises. They can opt to cut down on spending as and when they have to and look to expand profit margins in the process.

  • High quality service delivery

Apart from the well-known fact that clients tend to save up on costs, a vast majority of the clients are opting to outsource inbound call center service to professional companies because of the quality service they get. They can expect the service provider to meet targets, adhere to service level agreements (SLAs) and be rest assured that the call center executives perform well consistently.

  • Surviving high call volumes

Outsourcing inbound services enables business entities to make sure that a professional and potent team is handling customer queries during peak business season. They can afford to relax as they know that qualified call center executives are interacting with the customer throughout the busiest times of the season, when the volume of calls are higher than the remaining times of the year.

  • Relinquishment of control

Outsourcing call center services to professional business entities frees up their time and directs their attention towards core business operations. They can attend to other important tasks without feeling the need to manage the call center service provider. Clients can afford to avoid micromanagement activities and still deliver exceptional results.

  • No requirement of conducting regular training activities

Many industry experts will agree to the fact that training is a continuous process and it goes way beyond the initial two weeks or a quarter that business conglomerates spend time in helping executives to learn the tricks of the trade. Needless to say, it is an indispensable aspect of the business. Reliable inbound call center service providers understand this aspect and attend to this need almost immediately as the executives gain by adding on to their existing skill set.

Thus, it can interpreted from the discussion that there are a number of factors that need to be considered while opting for the best partner to outsource our call center activities. The outsourced entity needs to fulfill on the required parameters before the clients decide to enter into a long-term contract with them.

Airbus chief Tom Enders dragged into Eurofighter fraud probe

http://ift.tt/2paeqS9

Mr Enders is one of more than a dozen people being scrutinised by Austria’s public prosecutor, which in February launched a criminal investigation into Airbus’s defence arm and the international consortium that builds the fighter jets after new evidence was presented by the defence ministry. A spokeswoman for Vienna’s public prosecutor confirmed that Mr Enders, who ran Airbus’s defence division from 2000 to 2005, was now formally under investigation. “We can confirm there are a number of people,” she said. “Tom Enders is part of the investigation.”

EU starts to freeze UK out of contracts, oil slide slows and an ‘unholy mess’ over Nigerian oil

http://ift.tt/2pa4S9J

An administrative chill is biting even before Britain leaves the EU. An internal memo reveals Brussels is starting systematically to shut out British groups from multibillion-euro contracts and urging companies to decamp to one of the 27 remaining EU members as it prepares for Brexit. European countries have also warned Britain against making it hard for EU citizens to remain in the UK after Brexit in a revised set of negotiating guidelines.
