Call Wrap up Time and Tips to Improve This KPI

Posted on by
A Complete Guide on Call Wrap-up Time

In a call center, there are many KPIs to measure. Depending on the type of call center, the KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) get measured. Agent productivity is necessary to measure and improve in all call centers. One of the important KPIs related to agent productivity is call wrap-up time.

In this blog, we are sharing what is call wrap-up time and we will also share the top tips to improve this KPI by reducing overall call wrap-up time.

What is a call wrap-up time?

Once the agent completes the call with the customer or prospective customer, the agent needs to do some post-call work after hanging up the call. The post-call, also known as a call wrap-up, work can be anything like adding disposition of the call, making changes in the CRM entry, discussing the issue with the supervisor, etc.

In simple words, the time agents take after hanging up the call before showing their readiness to take another call to perform the call wrap-up task is called call wrap-up time.

How to reduce call wrap-up time?

Higher call wrap time, reduce the overall talk time of agents and definitely increase roadblocks in taking more calls and work productively. Therefore, it is necessary to track and reduce overall call wrap-up time to the possible extent. Your call center solution will show this KPI in the reports section.

Let’s explore the top 3 tips to reduce overall call wrap-up time.

1. Add disposition bucket

It is an advanced feature available to advanced call center solution users like DialShree: call center solution. It is available as an add-on. This add-on shows different disposition messages, which are used more frequently in the call centers. This saves a lot of time of agents otherwise spent in writing the disposition messages. This will help in reducing significant call wrap-up time. We have also developed a disposition bucket add-on for VICIDial open source call center solution. We offer VICIDial customization and a wide array of add-ons to help VICIDial users improve their KPIs, including, the disposition bucket.

2. Take advantage of integration

One of the tasks agents perform as part of post-call work is making entries or changes in the CRM records. In a majority of call centers, this is the norm. This requires switching from the call center solution to the CRM system to make the required changes and switching back from the CRM system to the call center solution. This will waste the time of agents and collectively, it is a lot of time. The call center CRM integration can be a great solution here. This integration will make the CRM system available within the call center solution, so agents will not need to switch back and forth. This will also reduce call wrap-up time.

3. Easy to use solutions

If your systems are complex, then it is obvious that agents may take longer in using them. Thus, adopt an easy-to-use call center solution, CRM software, etc. This will further help in reducing call wrap-up time.

We offer a call center solution, call center CRM integration, VICIDial customization, and other services and solutions to help you improve KPIs. Contact us for more details.

Major Customer Experience Mistakes to Avoid

Posted on by
Major Customer Experience Mistakes to Avoid

There are tons of articles written on the fact that shares the top tips to improve customer experience. Those articles are definitely great as they help in improving some areas to deliver a better customer experience. However, along with learning what to do, one should also emphasize learning what not to do. In this blog, we are going to share the major mistakes your agents or team might be making and those should be immediately stopped.

Not greeting customers correctly

Customers usually call to get support when they are stuck with something and they would be quite frustrated. At this time, they might be ready to share all their issues in one go as soon as the phone is attended by a support executive. However, it is necessary to take time to greet customers properly. This would help in calming down the customer a bit. Also, it reflects the professionalism of the company. Thus, greetings are necessary. The call center solution often shares a feature, called, “Call Script”. This feature can be used in greeting all customers in the same way and create the right first impression.

Putting customers on hold for a way long time

Knowingly or unknowingly, agents put customers on hold for a longer time period. It is necessary to understand that customers would be angry or upset and putting them on hold for way too long would fuel up their anger. Thus, agents must keep customers engaged. If it would take longer to fetch the information, the agent should keep retrieving the call and inform the customer that it is taking a bit longer or the agent should propose a callback option. If a call center uses an omnichannel call center solution, then another option can be to connect with the customer using other modes of communication like WhatsApp, email, live chat, etc.

Having a poor IVR

Having complex and too long IVR menus can confuse customers and make it tough for them to connect with the right agent. Also, the IVR prompts should be loud and clear, so customers don’t find them too tough to understand. The rule of thumb is IVR should be short and returning to the main menu should be easy.

Not personalizing the responses

This is another major mistake, which many agents make. Nowadays, many amazing tools are available such as call center CRM integration, which provides enough information about the customer to the agent during a live call to let agents personalize the conversations. Avoid this mistake at any cost.

Interrupting customers while they are talking

Interrupting anyone who is speaking is considered bad manners and interrupting a customer sharing his issue is considered a big mistake. It will make the customer feel more offended. Agents should make sure that they never cut the customer in between when they are speaking or if it is necessary to interrupt them for any reason, then asking for their apology is necessary.

We offer a call center solution, call center CRM integration, and many other tools that can help you improve customer experience and avoid major mistakes that would result in poor customer experience. Contact us for more details.

Call center WhatsApp integration is one of the technological boons that collection agencies can adopt. There are many amazing benefits of using this integrated solution.

Let us share more details about call center WhatsApp integration and how it is beneficial to collection agencies:

What is call center WhatsApp integration?

We integrate WhatsApp business into the call center solution of collection agencies. This integrated solution lets collection agencies use all features of the WhatsApp web such as:

  • Two-way chat
  • File share
  • Image share
  • Document and PDF share
  • And more

There are many benefits and use cases of using a call center solution with WhatsApp as an added communication channel in any collection company. Let me share the top benefits of using WhatsApp in collection agencies.

Save time

One of the major tasks of collection agencies is calling customers to give reminders related to their upcoming EMI dates. There are many customers that need a single reminder. For this type of customer, sending a WhatsApp message can be even more time savior than calling individually. One can also use the Smart WhatsApp tool, which allows WhatsApp broadcasting. This saves time even further. The customers with queries and concerns will revert to the WhatsApp messages. Agents can respond to these customers without leaving the window of their call center solution.

Give quick responses

Often customers come up with some small issues and queries related to EMI and its payment. Calling a customer support center and waiting for an agent to attend the call can be a lengthy process for them. It also keeps an agent occupied to handle the customer and then complete the disposition and other wrap-up processes. Unlike that, WhatsApp can speed up this whole process. Customers can ask their queries on the go and get a response within a few minutes. Agents also don’t need to invest time in the wrap-up process, plus, agents can handle multiple WhatsApp chats in parallel.

Provide rich communication via customers’ preferred communication channel

WhatsApp is a preferred mode of communication for many. With call center WhatsApp integration, a collection agency can make sure that it offers the required support to the customer via their favorite communication channel. It also lets agents use rich communication features like emoticons, file exchange, etc. to improve client satisfaction.

Posted on by
Must Have Tools for Agents Working from Home

The pandemic has started taking a turn and the new strain of the Coronavirus has proven to be more dangerous. It is spreading the disease faster and there is much happening across the world because of COVID 19. Many countries have started shutting down their borders and many businesses have again switched their operational models to remote. If you are running a call center and going to operate remotely, then there are some tools, which your agents need to work productively.

In this blog, we will share major tools that are must to support agents working from home.

1. Hassle-free access to the call center solution

This is the fundamental need of agents as they need to work from home. The dialer aka call center solution should be easily accessible, so they can log in and work using it. The cloud call center solution is one option, which offers secure access to the call center software to remote agents. If you have on-premises servers, on which the dialer software is hosted, then you might not want to move it to the cloud. In this case, you can use the “Work from Home” add-on. This add-on can help you in accessing the call center solution from remote locations without compromising security. It also lets agents work in any condition.

To know more about work from home add-on, click here.

2. Flexibility to work without or with low bandwidth internet

The call center solution usually gets accessed via a web-based user interface. Therefore, agents need to have an internet connection to work on it. Moreover, the calls get carried out via an internet connection. This increases the need of high bandwidth internet. All agents might not be able to arrange high bandwidth internet. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on other options that let agents work even with no internet or a connection with low bandwidth. The option here is the “Work from Home” add-on. It lets agents work in both conditions using low bandwidth or no internet connection.

3. Mobile app of the call center dialer

Some agents might not have a laptop or a computer. In that case, they need to use their smartphones to operate remotely. The agent panel of the call center solution has to be mobile-friendly, so agents can access its features with ease on mobile devices. Other than that, a more important thing is, a call center should have a mobile app to simplify the access of the dialer using smartphones. For example, our DialShree Mobi is a perfect solution that can be used to access all features of the agent panel via the app and work productively.

4. Collaboration tools

When agents work from home, they may need more encouragement, engagement, and motivation. All this is possible with the collaboration tools. The call center solution offers internal chat and WhatsApp to communicate internally to assure the work goes seamlessly even with the work from home model.
