Let the telephony-based virtual assistant handle incoming customer calls and schedule a call-back with the next available agent

Challenge

Customers get frustrated when they have to wait on hold

Solution

A call-back assistant ensures every customer query is addressed and provides agents with context

Results

Shorter wait time, happier agents and customers, better brand reputation

Reduce average handling time and provide agents with more context

Agent support in peak times

Sometimes the volume of calls is so high that call centre agents fail to handle them, and customers cannot get through. With a call-back AI assistant handling the calls, customers don’t get frustrated waiting on hold

Higher customer control

Telephony-based virtual assistant intercepts incoming customer calls and schedules a call-back with the next available agent by proposing convenient time slots, even if your contact centre has closed for the day

Context-aware attribution

This solution focuses around reducing average handling time and wait times by scheduling customer calls when agents have availability and arming them with context about a particular customer queries and issues before they call-back

How a Call-back Assistant benefits your business

Better customer experience

Waiting on hold wastes customers’ time and leads to many getting frustrated, dampening their experience of your company. Customer call-back syncs perfectly with the concept of offering an omnichannel experience, which is shown to create more valuable and loyal customers

Increased first call resolution rates

A great way to ensure more problems get resolved with just one phone call is to provide your agents with more call context. If an agent can look at customer information before taking a call, they can prepare for the conversation and be better equipped to resolve the issue. Customer call-back offers this exact opportunity

Lower contact centre costs

A call-back option is a simple solution as it takes customers out of the hold queue, reducing the associated toll charges. It also helps you free up phone lines, which will lower trunk costs

Smoother peak times

How do you cope when you don’t have enough agents to deal with the number of calls? Offering customers an option for a call-back cuts down hold times and helps to smooth out the large volume of calls received during peak times

Reduced abandonment rates

Call abandonment rates are one of the most important key performance indicators for contact centres. By giving customers the choice of getting a call-back, you break the cycle of hanging up, ringing back 2 minutes later, being placed on hold, and hanging up again, which leads to happier customers
