This is a must read if you're a newcomer to predictive dialers and responsible for analyzing, recommending, and deploying inbound and outbound call center solutions; or, if you're in the midst of implementing a predictive dialer; or if you're familiar with current technologies, but want to know more about how leading edge technologies contribute to the productivity of a call center.
Did you know that predictive dialers help companies to:
- Increase agent productivity by 150% to 400%
- Experience a return on investment within 6 to 12 months
- Allow agents to talk to at least two people in the same time it takes to manually dial and reach one person
- Boost agent morale by removing the remedial tasks of manual dialing and frustrations associated not reaching the intended contact
With this book, you will learn fundamental information about predictive dialers: what they are, how they work, how they benefit businesses that are conducting telemarketing, customer service and collection calls, as well as what the future holds for call centers.
