Outsourced customer contact centre launches ‘Digital’ division to offer new, measurable and affordable social media management services

Ventrica Digital

The Ventrica Digital model is perfect for those companies that don’t have the specialist expertise or resources in-house

- Award-winning customer service expertise will underwrite tailored campaigns


Southend, UK, 5th July 2016 – One of Essex’s fastest growing businesses, outsourced contact centre Ventrica based in Southend has announced today the launch of sister company, Ventrica Digital. The new business will be dedicated to providing a new type and range of customised and results-driven social management services to UK organisations, from SMEs (Small to Medium sized enterprises) through to large blue chip brands.

Managing Director and founder of Ventrica, Dino Forte commented, “As an outsourced contact centre we are already providing omni-channel customer service for some of the UK’s fastest growing businesses and leading global brands but realised there was a gap in the market to provide a more complete and tailored digital service offering that covers everything from responding to customers via digital platforms through to content provision, review moderation and monitoring.

There are plenty of digital agencies out there, but very few come from an award-winning customer services background or have the resources to provide a 24/7 service with the option of multi-lingual* capabilities. With more and more businesses operating internationally, and more consumers wanting to buy on-line at any time of the day, it is now essential to offer expertise around the clock with response services across all popular media, whether via webchat, social, mobile, email or review moderation. The Ventrica Digital model is perfect for those companies that don’t have the specialist expertise or resources in-house, but still want to take advantage of the huge returns of harnessing social media and digital, that if used intelligently, can have a direct and measurable return on investment in the shape of sales, enhanced service levels and customer retention.”
