Now Callnovo is trusted and supported by 1,000+ small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and some of the most renowned Fortune 500 companies worldwide.
Jackie Xu, Callnovo’s founder and CEO, sent a Chinese New Year 2022 message invoking blessings to all of the business’ team in China: ” 2021 – as the 17th year in which our business has continued to meet our various clients’ business expectations with excellent customer service outsourcing solutions – is a year in which all members of our customer service outsourcing company worldwide have worked together as a tight-knit team to overcome service challenges and help companies to take advantage of the sales market in their respective industries!

It is expected that our company will bravely move forward in 2022 with the joint support and efforts of our colleagues all over the world, showing their strength and vitality on the international stage and within the global market.”
The opening dance of the evening for the new year celebration was led by the core Chinese members of Callnovo’s Tech Department. The team, immersed in the research and development of communications technology, wore sweatshirts on-stage with the words “fa” (meaning “prosper”), “cai” (meaning “treasure”), “ji” (meaning “good luck”), “le” (meaning “happiness”), and “hi” (meaning “joy”) to demonstrate the unique charm of the Technical Department and its blessings and expectations for the new year.

Involved in the festive stage performance were the business development department, the tech department, the fiscal department, the operations department, and the marketing department, hand-in-hand with those responsible for the chorus of the program – performing such songs as: “Attachment,” “New Boy,” “I will Follow Him,” “Favorite,” “Only Have Feelings for You,” and the classical dance, “Three Spring Moon,” performed by Cherish from the Business Development Department; likewise, games with prizes were participated in – such as: “Peach Blossom Blossom,” “Blindfolded Banana Eating,” and “Guess the Name of the Song.” Callnovo’s core Chinese team demonstrated their talents and joined hands to present a marvelous party.
Mia, a customer service agent who won the game of “Guess the Name of the Song,” shared with us her service experience over the past year. “I’m currently serving a specific game client in Southeast Asia that has needed multilingual call center customer service support and tech support. Live web chat w/ integrated conversational AI and email are the service channels customer service and tech support are provided through whereby the client – with the help of Callnovo’s customer service team – provides support to players with specific platform questions/issues – all within Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam; likewise, support surrounding data is provided – as well as other services – to solve players’ issues online. In addition to Callnovo’s Chinese customer service team, our projects also provide virtual English, Bahasa Indonesian, Thai, Bahasa Malaysia, Malay, Vietnamese, and other local language support via inbound/outbound calls, email, online chat, and social media support in various Southeast Asian local game markets. During this Chinese New Year celebration event, it is my pleasure to say that I am extremely content to see our company’s significant achievements over the past year and wish Callnovo another brilliant year!”

They are Peter Wang (who received the Technology Operations Excellence Award), Helen He (who received the Customer Trust Excellence Award), Anita Lee (who received the Global Vision Development Award), Kasumi Wu (who received the International Operations Excellence Award), and Zeki Zeng (who received the Technology Enabling R&D Pioneer Award).
Anita, the marketing and sales director who won the Global Vision Development Award during this new year celebration event, was full of emotions: “In 2021, our multilingual call center continued to buck the trend; despite the global epidemic and various political changes, Callnovo’s global staff has worked together to add hundreds of new national and international corporate partners over the past year, including ByteDance, Changhong TV, XGimi Technology, Dreaming Sweeper, Pentum Printer, Avalara, Global Shares, Avanquest, EXPI, and other well-known brands familiar to everyday life. We have added nearly one-thousand (1,000) excellent customer service reps at operations centers around the world to serve these brands. With such gratifying results, I especially want to thank during this Chinese New Year 2022 event the colleagues of the corporate management team of our multilingual call center who have given their best day-after-day, as well as thank the customer service staff who have worked silently on the front lines. It is through your efforts that Callnovo has won the trust and applause of our business partners; thank you for your dedication and support!”
