Can your outsourced #CustomerSupport team handle a flood of holiday shoppers without missing a beat?
The holidays are coming in too fast and too hot for many brands to even get their sales, #CustomerExperience, and websites ready in time.
Over the Open Access BPO Blog, we've put together a checklist that highlights actionable steps for smoother website navigation, faster checkout, and reliable post‑purchase support.
These measures are designed to help online retailers manage higher traffic while keeping customers satisfied.
The Open Access BPO Bazaar took place last Thursday and Friday at the company's Makati office, bringing employees together for a two-day showcase of homegrown products and personal ventures. The activity highlighted the creative interests of participating teams, who converted the site's cafeteria into a lively marketplace for colleagues to explore.
Employees offered a range of items that included ready-to-wear clothing, footwear, pastries, sweets, handcrafted paper goods, and assorted refreshments. A grilling station set up in the outdoor al fresco area provided freshly cooked Pinoy street food, giving attendees an additional point of interest throughout both days.
The company's barista DJs supported the event by serving coffee and playing music that contributed to a comfortable and welcoming environment for visitors.
The bazaar is part of the organization's ongoing #EmployeeEngagement program, which aims to provide meaningful activities that encourage connection, creativity, and pride within the OABPO community.

The company's Davao team will also hold its leg of the company's annual Blood Donation Drive on November 26.
