DSI Call Center PartnerAnalysis & Strategy

Comprehensive market analysis identifying optimal call center partnerships for broadband service acquisition

Key Takeaways About DSI's Ideal Partners

Broadband Sales Focus

Call centers that can sell broadband services (AT&T, DirecTV, etc.) as retailers or dealers signing up end customers for home internet and TV.

Thin Margins

Only ~$10 per broadband activation with very thin margins. Cost per lead or partner acquisition must be extremely low.

International Operations

Most dealers are international (El Salvador, Colombia) with U.S.-based ownership, selling into the U.S. telecom market.

New Partners Wanted

Looking for new, unknown call centers not already in their ecosystem. Actively discovering new outbound/inbound sales partners.

Acquisition Focus

Not tech support or BPOs focused on customer service — it's about acquisition, not retention.

Hard to Find

Google Ads and LinkedIn aren't working — too broad or expensive. Interested in targeting business owners, not consumers.
