Courtesy Callback

Avoid long hold times with Spanlink Courtesy Callback

If your customers had the choice of either waiting in queue for the next available agent, or receiving a call back from an agent as soon as their call came up in the queue, what would they choose? What if your customers could schedule their callback instead of waiting on hold? Better yet, what if you could better use your agent population, smooth out the workload over the course of the day and improve your SLA?  

Spanlink Courtesy Callback and Spanlink Scheduled Courtesy Callback enable you to do all of the above.  

Courtesy Callback allows customers to use their time more productively than they would waiting in queue, while Scheduled Courtesy Callback allows them to schedule out their callback when they have better availability within the next four days. These benefits create a competitive advantage for your company and increased customer satisfaction for your customers.

Cost Savings and Operational Improvements

With Courtesy Callback and Scheduled Courtesy Callback, customers can decrease their telephony infrastructure and operating expenses. For example:

  • Fewer callers will choose to remain in queue, which decreases the amount of PRI ports needed to support the business and decreases monthly long-distance charges
  • With fewer callers choosing to remain in queue the need for software queuing ports (CVP) and hardware ports (voice gateways) to hold callers in queue decreases – a direct software and hardware cost savings
  • With fewer calls in queue and reduced wait times, Courtesy Callback and Scheduled Courtesy Callback can have a direct impact on improving abandon rates  

In addition, your agent turnover could decrease; the Courtesy Callback solutions smooth out call volumes, making the agent environment less stressful and reducing turnover.  

Spanlink Courtesy Callback is a packaged solution for Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise or Cisco Unified Contact Center Express. Scheduled Courtesy Callback is available as an add-on feature.
