Training Program Development from a leading Contact Center Consulting Firm

Why reinvent the wheel?  Let our team of operations consulting experts at QCS conduct on-site or a web-based virtual call center training program for your call center representatives and management. We work with you to compile relevant resources from your company that will complement the standardized call center training resources that make up the core of our training program.

Call center training programs start with identifying goals and objectives. What is the measurable desired outcome after the completion of training? How will ongoing reinforcement be administered, following the call center training program? In addition, call center management training is included in every customized training curriculum.

The operations consulting experts at QCS will also ensure the new training is complemented by a call center incentive program that inspires employees to learn new skills and put them into practice right away.

Call center training programs are customized for each individual client, however, a few principles are at the heart of our training philosophy:

  • Call center training material should be layered. It is not effective to conduct hours of training without the opportunity to begin to practice what is learned. Identify the smallest subset that can be effectively trained at once.
  • Call center management must receive the same training as call center agents. Never skimp on including managers, supervisors, quality assurance personnel, and other key team members in the training.
  • Systems and tools must be intuitive. It is impossible to remember everything, but it is possible to remember how to find something if it is easy and intuitive (like Google).
  • Call center training should include planned reinforcement. If you don’t reinforce, the original training time is mostly wasted.
 

Call Center Vendor Selection from a Leading Contact Center Consulting Firm

When faced with the task of evaluating and selecting an outsourced call center or telemarketing vendor, the key challenge is lack of time to fully consider and research all of the best options. QCS’ operations consulting team specializes in helping organizations with call center vendor selection.

Another challenge many decision-makers face is evaluating when it best meets their needs to use outsourcing. Outsourcing is an option that many organizations consider as a means of controlling costs and, in some cases, improving service levels and customer satisfaction. However, many organizations are not comfortable with this option and may not understand its benefits completely.

Quality Contact Solutions recognizes that outsourcing is not for everyone. That’s why we’ve developed an operations consulting program that examines in-house call center environments to determine if outsourcing is applicable in any form. Our outsourcing analysis considers many potential options, including:

  • Full outsourcing
  • Selective transactions
  • Peak/seasonal traffic
  • Outbound campaigns
  • Web-based support
  • Night/Evening Shifts
  • Offshore Outsourcing

 

In the outsourcing realm, our operations consulting team provides a turnkey solution to companies that decide to navigate through the tedious process of selecting an outsourced service provider. The turnkey program includes:

  • Requirements definition
  • RFP development
  • Vendor selection
  • Contract negotiation
  • Project management
  • Quality review

 

Why would a company outsource the function of selecting an external third-party call center? The key benefits of engaging QCS include:

  • Experienced, objective analysis
  • Reduction in resource requirements
  • Cost savings
  • Quality implementation

Technical Consulting from a Leading Contact Center Consulting Firm

Call center technology is evolving more quickly than ever before. Let the Quality Contact Solutions team of technical consulting experts help you evaluate your current needs and recommend new solutions that will improve your results and return on investment.

Our technical consulting team will conduct an evaluation of your current call center technology, including:

  • Auto Dialer, predictive dialer, or other phone dialer technology
  • The difference between an auto dialer (ATDS) and a manual dialer
  • The potential benefit of a hosted predictive dialer vs a premise-based predictive dialer
  • Caller ID for outbound telemarketing
  • CRM tools and integration with an automated dialer
  • Email tools and integration with the call center dialer
  • Management reports for performance management
  • Inbound contact center technology, including ACD, IVR, and related phone systems
  • Call recording and call monitoring solutions
 

Did you know? If you call cell phones for telemarketing purposes, cell phones must be dialed using non-ATDS call center technology.  What does non-ATDS mean? ATDS stands for Automated Telephone Dialing System. Essentially, you must ask your technology provider to provide you a statement in writing that warrants and represents that the call center technology that you use to place calls is a non-ATDS. Still have questions? Give us a call. We will provide you guidance and help you avoid a potential TCPA class action lawsuit.

Does your outbound telemarketing operation need a boost in performance? One of the easiest, lowest-cost ways to improve outbound telemarketing performance is through the use of local CallerID phone numbers. Most automated dialers and non-ATDS dialers have the capacity to push a phone number for outbound Caller ID. Let our technical consulting experts help you devise a winning strategy for using Local Caller ID numbers to increase your answer rate. Telemarketing is a numbers game. Using Local CallerID numbers is proven to get more calls answered. More calls answered per hour equals more contacts per hour. More contacts per hour equals more sales per hour. It’s pretty simple. Our team of technical consulting experts can help you devise a strategy that works best for your company.
