For contact centers that are in the field of outbound sales, it makes sense to employ an outbound predictive dialer. They make work easier, faster, and more efficient for agents and more profitable for business - a real win-win situation for your company. However, choosing the right software can be tricky.

At ChaseData, we want you to feel confident when you invest in technology for your business. Here, we’ll examine some key ways to know you’re getting the best outbound predictive dialer for your call center’s needs - and where to find it!

The feeling of being passed from one call center agent to the next is one that has led many consumers to dread calling a contact center in the first place. Feeling like it takes forever to reach someone or that your time isn’t valued can make it an altogether unpleasant experience. What’s more, it doesn’t give a caller much confidence in the qualifications of a facility when you have to repeat the same information to every person you are repeatedly transferred to.

These are several of the most important reasons that so many centers today heavily rely on warm transfers. Read on to learn more about what this technique entails - and how to warm up your own transfer techniques.

Improving your contact center is a job that never ends. The best facilities are those that never stop improving - but what can be done to increase efficiency and enhance productivity when you’re already training an excellent staff and providing great service? This is when turning to technology may be the best approach for perpetual improvement - and when it might be time to think about introducing automatic call distribution software to the mix at your center.

When discussing strategies for increasing outbound contact center sales, most modern facilities focus heavily on person-centered approaches. These techniques take the automation out of the equation - or at least appear to, from the perspective of the customer. However, there are ways to provide customer service and a perfect product pitch that will still give consumers that personalized, custom-tailored service feeling while offering your business the ability to make connections with more customers and see a great ROI.

Creating a better, more successful contact center is a common goal for those in the industry. However, working toward that goal can create some confusion, since there is no definitive guide to setting up your center for success.

While there are many schools of thought when it comes to how to make your center and staff more successful, one of the most well-documented and proven is to begin with improving the environment and morale in your center. Once you have a positive, uplifting environment that your employees are happy to be part of, you’re much more likely to breed success as a result.

When you think about call centers, you probably don’t think of small businesses. In fact, most people think of contact centers as the antithesis of small business in today’s world.
