2004 ATSI Awards of Excellence
September 2004

 At their recent annual convention, ATSI (the Association of TeleServices International) recognized call centers and teleservice companies for outstanding quality and performance through their Award of Excellence program.  This program uses independent third party mystery callers and evaluators to ascertain call quality and professionalism.

ATSI Award of Excellence: According to ATSI, "Excellence requires a level of service that considers the caller first in every aspect of the call.  Excellence makes a caller believe they are the most important person (or their problem is the most important consideration).  How the agent handles every call, from beginning to end determines the success of your client relationship."  While most teleservice companies provide good service, ATSI seeks to identify and reward the best of the best, bestowing on them their coveted Award of Excellence.

Here are the 2004 winners.  Many companies have earned the award for multiple years, indicating quality on a consistent, year in and year out basis.
