Your Customer Experience.
Never a Rented Call Floor.
Most outsourcing gives you access to a call floor, agents split across a dozen accounts, reading your name off a script. Aureon assigns a dedicated, U.S.-based team that learns your products, your systems, and your standards, then works only for you. Outsourced customer service and call center coverage that operates like a department you built, backed by enterprise ACD/IVR routing and 24/7/365 coverage.
A dedicated team. Not access to a call floor.
Aureon is a U.S.-based customer experience and contact center outsourcing provider headquartered in West Des Moines, Iowa, delivering outsourced customer service, call center, help desk, and technical support for more than 40 years.
Your Own Team
Your agents are assigned to your account and stay there. They are not splitting shifts across a dozen unrelated brands, so product knowledge, escalation judgment, and familiarity with your customers keep compounding instead of resetting with every rotation.
Trained to Your Standards
Onboarding covers your products, systems, tone, and escalation paths before anyone takes a live contact. Training then continues as your business changes, so agents can answer the second question rather than reading the first one off a script.
Omnichannel with ACD & IVR
Voice, email, live chat, and social handled by the same team, with inbound and outbound calling included. Automatic Call Distribution and Interactive Voice Response route each contact to the right agent the first time, cutting hold times, transfers, and abandoned calls.
Quality & Reporting
Call recording, agent scoring, CSAT tracking, and reporting come standard rather than as add-ons you negotiate. Communications are encrypted with secure access controls, and coaching happens against your standards instead of a generic quality rubric.
Access to agents isn't the same as having a team.
Three questions reveal what a vendor is actually selling you. If you can't get a straight answer to them, you're buying seats rather than a team.
Most outsourced customer service is sold by the seat. Agents sit in a shared pool, work several accounts at once, and follow a script because they have no room to learn yours. It covers the volume and misses the point.
Aureon assigns a dedicated team to your account and keeps them there, so product knowledge and escalation judgment compound over time instead of resetting with every rotation.
An agent splitting time across a dozen brands can read your name off a page but can't recognise a good customer, judge when something needs escalating, or explain your product unscripted. Your customers hear that gap immediately.
Onboarding covers your products, systems, tone, and escalation paths before anyone takes a live contact, and training continues as your business changes.
Most unhappy customers never complain. They stop calling, and the revenue leaves quietly. Without recording and scoring, you find out from a cancellation rather than a report, by which point there's nothing to recover.
Call recording, agent scoring, CSAT tracking, and reporting come standard, so you can see satisfaction trending on a channel or issue type before it turns into churn you can't trace.

Two vendors can quote the same coverage and the same channels, and deliver something entirely different. The question isn't how many seats you're buying, it's whether the people in them work only for you.

* Shared agent pool describes the standard multi-client staffing model used across much of the customer service outsourcing industry, in which agents support several accounts concurrently. Individual providers vary; ask any vendor directly whether your agents are dedicated to your account or shared.

Frequently Asked Questions
Customer experience outsourcing means a partner handles your customer-facing interactions — inbound and outbound calls, email, live chat, and social — with trained agents, technology, and management on your behalf. Aureon is a U.S.-based customer experience and contact center outsourcing provider headquartered in West Des Moines, Iowa, delivering outsourced customer service, call center, help desk, and technical support for more than 40 years. Unlike a shared call center, Aureon assigns a dedicated team to your account so agents learn your products, systems, and standards.
A traditional call center sells you access to a shared pool of agents who handle several client accounts at once, following scripts because they have no room to learn any one business deeply. A dedicated CX team is assigned to your account only. The same agents show up every day, are trained on your products, systems, escalation paths, and tone, and are scored against your standards. The coverage can look identical on paper; what differs is agent knowledge, continuity, and whether anyone can tell you how your customers were actually treated.
Yes. Aureon's agents are Midwest-based with a neutral dialect and are trained to act as an extension of your business — not an offshore script reader. Your customers reach real people who understand your brand and can represent it professionally on every interaction.
Yes. Aureon handles inbound call answering and customer service, inbound sales support with cross-sell and up-sell, and outbound calling for follow-ups, outreach, and campaigns — alongside email, live chat, and social. The mix is scoped to your business during setup, so your dedicated agents focus on the interactions that matter most.
Yes. Many clients run a hybrid model where their internal team handles standard volume and Aureon covers nights, weekends, holidays, and peak spikes. Work-at-home agents on virtualization technology provide 24/7/365 coverage with built-in business continuity, so customers are answered even during an outage or a sudden surge in volume.
Aureon uses Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) to route each contact to the right agent quickly and reduce hold times and transfers. Call recording, agent scoring, CSAT tracking, and reporting are included so quality is measured rather than assumed. Communications are encrypted with secure access controls and regular security updates, so you get enterprise-grade routing and security without purchasing or maintaining the platform yourself.
Pricing depends on the services selected, expected volume, channel mix, hours of coverage, and the level of agent training required. A dedicated team typically costs more per hour than a shared pool because the agents work only for you. Aureon conducts a discovery conversation to understand your current operation and goals, then builds a proposal scoped to your business — usually structured around per-agent, per-hour, or per-interaction models, delivering predictable monthly cost in place of the unpredictable expense of hiring and retaining an internal team.
Only if you want it to. Most engagements start as an extension of an existing team — covering after-hours, overflow, a specific channel, or a single product line — and expand from there. Others hand over customer-facing support entirely so internal staff can focus on higher-value work. Aureon scopes the model around what your business actually needs rather than a fixed package.
