Lower Abandonment Rates in Your Contact Center
Lowering your call abandonment rate is one of the best ways to improve performance in a contact center.
Abandoned Calls Make Customers Feel Forgotten
When your caller hangs up before they speak to a customer support agent in a contact center, their call is considered to be abandoned. It often means customers have experienced long hold times or technical problems. That doesn’t sound good! (You’re right, it’s not good.) High call abandonment rates mean there’s a very good chance your customers feel frustrated with the long wait times, or worse: they feel angry and forgotten.
Give Your Customers Information and Options
Customers need information and options if they’re going to trust you with their time. Letting them know their place in the queue or how long wait times will be, improving hold music, and offering call-backs will all reduce call abandonment. With Devoluciones de Llamadas Programadas, a customer can book a conversation at a time that works for them up to 15 days in the future. Now that’s some great CX!
Satisfied Customers are Good for Business
Call abandonment rates matter because they speak directly to customer dissatisfaction — and the negative impact that has on customer loyalty. An investment in call-backs pays dividends. Why? Because it’s much less expensive to keep your existing customers happy than it is to acquire new ones.
