Speaking can speed up your resolution time - Find out how!

Resolution times are important for contact centres. The faster each resolution is, the more resolutions your contact centre can successfully produce in a day without expanding your customer service team. This is something that every contact centre aims for, as it increases your efficiency while being cost effective. But how can you make your customer service agents faster without compromising quality?

Listen intently

One of the best ways to make your customer service team more effective is to train them to understand a customer issue and how to listen closely. Sometimes, a customer does not know what the issue is directly, as they may not be technical, as is the case with industries such as the automotive and computer industries. The customer might just say, “It is not working, I don’t know why,” and this can be garnished with a tone of frustration as many will attempt to diagnose or tackle an issue themselves before resigning to defeat and calling customer service for help. It’s important to listen closely and ask the right questions in the first instance, to gather a comprehensive understanding of a customer’s issue before offering a solution, rather than giving the customer a list of fixes that yield no result and consume more time.

Connect quickly, resolve quickly

If you’re reading this, it’s likely that you already have Click4Assistance’s live chat for small business. This easily allows customers to quickly get in touch with your customer service agents right when they need them. Sometimes a customer could be waiting on a telephone queue indefinitely, but with online chat, your customers will spend less time waiting on the phone and more time getting their issues resolved, since your customer service agents can speak with multiple customers simultaneously over Click4Assistance’s live chat software, making them 4 times more productive instantly.

Speak, at the click of a button

But sometimes a live chat for website is not enough and one size fits all may not be the desired approach. You may find customers or certain issues need to be explained via audio rather than just typing it out on live chat. This is the case when a customer has to explain a problem, or have a customer service agent listen to the issue at hand if it’s audible. A customer service agent may even find it much more effective to speak with a customer if they need to be walked through a step by step solution and provide feedback. But what’s an easy way to do this with sacrificing efficiency?
