Don’t give in to the weather – enable your agents to take Secure payments and serve customers from home
Just when your customers need you most your contact centre goes out of action. Maybe it’s the ‘beast from the east’ or a storm of another name but the outcome is that agents can’t get to the office, customers need you more than ever and your competitors could be sneaking the lead on you.
Your customers expect you to be there when they want you. They may need you for urgent assistance or just want to renew their road side assistance as bad weather hits. Your contact centre is the frontline of customer experience so if it’s not available your customers will go elsewhere. Getting them back is an uphill battle.
But, you don’t have to give in to the forces of nature. Why not enable your agents to work from home? Save them the tedious, risky and distracting journey to the office by providing them with an online portal so they can carry on delivering the same customer experience - no matter where they are.
