Inbound Call Center's Offering: Three-in-One Answering Service
Every company has to pump up its customer service support. Through a satisfactory customer care, the big reward increased customer retention is going to be harvested. How to do this? There are many choices to choose from but the best available solution is outsourcing.
When you partner with an inbound call center, your company will not only be given one type of answering service. Surprisingly, most contact centers nowadays are improving their operations with a three-in-one answering service- an automation, virtual telephone receptionist and live chat support. I bet that with these three tools at hand, wider coverage and better quality performance are reaped.
Automated Answering Service
Automation is too familiar for you. You always hear the recordings when you want to ask something, say for example, credit card balance. Does “Press 1 for customer service, Press 2...” ring a bell? Yeah, right. That one is an example of an automated answering service. This type is used for simple transactions, e.g. inquiry for bank balance. Through this, telephone operators are relieved from easy tasks and can offer more quality time with complex calls.
Virtual Telephone Receptionists
Virtual receptionist is the receiver of phone calls over the telephone. Unlike voicemail and automation, it is done live. This serves as the most important function in customer service support as customers want to make inquiries, complaints, orders and the likes with a live operator, not with the recordings often heard. The fact that callers reach a person is a positive score for the company and satisfying them is a huge bonus.
Live Chat Support
The live answering service expands its coverage to the Internet realm. The constant upward trend of online users, billions in a daily average, has been forcing firms to cater the people over the World Wide Web. Just like a virtual telephone receptionist, a live chat assistant serves a browser in real-time.
With these three mediums at hand, what opportunity could be missed?
