Our Team
In an age of chatbots, automated email responders and pre-recorded telephone menus, customers are craving more human interactions and less automation. At Rewardsco Sales, we value the “People Economy”.
Our business may be powered by the latest technology and infrastructure, but we know that it is driven by our sales force. Every consultant is people-oriented and trained to focus on creating memorable and positive experiences with customers. This gives you not just an outsourced sales force, but outsourced brand ambassadors.
What sets us apart from our industry peers is the understanding that a large part of our success is the sum of positive interactions between real people.

Why South Africa
South Africa offers much more than a tropical climate, breath-taking scenery and great hospitality. Our country is a colourful patchwork of cultures and languages, with a vibrant and hardworking population that have assimilated western cultural norms into their proudly South African identities.
Located at the tip of the African continent, South Africa is 10 hours ahead of the United States West Coast and 9 hours behind the Australian East Coast. This means we are ideally situated to offer comprehensive “dusk to dawn” solutions during peak business hours long after the sun has set on our sandy shores.
In 2016, South Africa was named Offshoring Destination of the Year at the 2016 Global Sourcing Association (GSA) awards in London. South Africa has also won this prestigious award in 2012 and 2014, solidifying its position as a world-class offshoring destination.
Rewardsco is a proud member of Business Process Enabling South Africa (BPESA), which supports and promotes domestic and international contact centre and BPO investments into South Africa.
As a member of SACRRA (South African Credit and Risk Reporting Association), Rewardsco Sales is able to enhance our data-driven approach to both customer acquisition and retention thus improving lifetime value for our clients.

Benefits of South Africa as an offshoring destination:
Cost
Due to favourable exchange rates and incentives, we are uniquely positioned to offer international customers a highly trained sales force along with premium technical expertise and world-class infrastructure at a lower cost. This also allows businesses to free up time and resources to focus on their core functions.
Accenting
South Africa has a literacy rate of 93%, with English being the dominant language for business and media communications. A substantial portion of the workforce speaks fluent English in neutral accents that are not jarring and can be easily understood by foreign customers from North America, the UK or Australia.
Cultural Alignment
South Africa may be a melting pot of unique cultures, but you will find strong western influences wherever you go thanks to our global outlook, connectivity and the perennial stream of incoming tourists and businesses from across the world. Our sales force inherently understands western cultural norms and practices.
Transparency
Our clients trust us to deal directly with their customers, so we believe in an open door policy that cultivates transparency and long lasting relationships. Our clients are free to walk onto our sales floors to see our team in action, or dial in at any time, from anywhere, to listen to their live campaigns.
