I am looking at starting a Center in the DR. I am thankful for any information you could provide.
I am visiting Sept 22 for seven days to research and define project goals.
I need assistance on the following:
Here is what I have so far for a task list:
Q. General question ? if a call center was to be opened in the DR ? where would be the best place and why?
1. Learn about Importing: Business Essentials, PC's, Desks, VoIP Hardware, Cabling, Phone Sets, generators, etcetera. I will need to import or purchase call center furniture and equipment to start my business. Where can I find out more on Importing?
2. Legal - Register a business, get legal advice and representation in the DR (Taxes, Employment Law). I need to meet with a top laywer. What are the costs?
3. Verison - arrange meeting and locate fiber buildings that are in Free Zones in the North of DR - do Voice over Internet Protocal (VOIP) test. We will be using Voice over Internet to bring inbound calls from Canada and USA into the DR call center to signup and answer technical questions on our products and services. Can you offer assistance in finding or setting up a meeting to talk with Verison and find OnNet fiber buildings with T1 internet access (fiber connection to Verison).
3a. Hire a Tutor for Spanish or get a translator.
4. Commercial Real Estate Agent - Locate Office Choices from our fiber building choices for office space.
4a. Where are the free zones in the North? Is there a list of cities available? What is the benefit of doing business in the North?
5. Find and meet with the Employment office in the North end, good English speaking people. What is the best method to find English speaking educated staff to work as customer care representatives?
6. Health Care - organize private health care. What do I need to have in order to be covered for personal health care in the DR?
7. Living in DR - I will need to live in the North close or in Sousa. What would you recommend for a new DR resident? I will need to have close access to the free zones for work, and don't want to live in any unsafe areas. Can you recommend anywhere I could look for rental or purchase?
I will probably have more questions, but this is my starting list. In advance, I appreciate any insight you have to offer.
