Are your agents still using manual dialling process for outbound calls? Does your business productivity depend on these calls? If your answer is ‘yes’, then it’s high time you started rethinking.
Automated outbound calling software initiates outbound calls to different numbers concurrently. The software automatically dials numbers using random number generators. Once the calls are answered, they are handed over to the agents or the auto–dialer plays a pre-recorded message.
Agents usually make outbound calls for purposes like tele-marketing, tele-sales etc. Outbound caller software makes this process more efficient by automating the dialling process and filtering out the calls which are received by the answering machines. This increases the connect rates and also the agent productivity. Automatic diallers which dial large number of calls quickly and efficiently help call centers conduct extensive call campaigns.
Progressive dialler and predictive dialler– Both progressive and predictive dialler software initiate outbound calls. Both are automated processes which free the agent from manually searching and dialling customer’s numbers. But there is a major difference between them. Predictive dialler estimates the time that an agent will spend on a call and based on that, starts making multiple calls even before the agent is available. Progressive dialler initiates a new call only when the agent is available. Both have their pros and cons. While predictive dialler can be used to target large number of customers, the customers might have to wait a few seconds before the call gets connected. In the case of progressive diallers, there is no risk of customer being unattended. Agents can finish their calls without worrying about the next customer waiting. But here, the outreach will be slightly lesser than that of predictive dialler.
Outbound IVR
Outbound calls are made to potential leads or existing customers with an aim of understanding market trend, getting customer feedback, reminding them about bill due dates, informing them about offers etc. All this work which was earlier carried out manually by call center agents can now be done through outbound IVR. Through a series of pre-recorded messages, businesses can connect with their potential/existing customers. By automating the entire process, requirement for manual labour is reduced. The agent’s time can be utilized for other important tasks which need human intervention.
