If the end users are not treated properly there are all the chances that the days for the enterprise are numbered. The existing as well the potential customers if not satisfied with the standard of the pre or post sale customer service wont go through the pain of enduring a troublesome business-buyer relationship. With the consumer market offering a long list of choices for the customers it isnt very difficult to find any alternative business enterprise manufacturing the same products or services. But for the businesses it is absolutely essential to hold on to their customers to brighten the prospects of repeat sales.
It is to make sure that the business answering service department is functioning with enough precision and perfection call centers India or Philippines are appointed. These call center companies have the perfect infrastructure and adequately trained staffs to attend the customer calls with the required amount of professionalism. Although these offshore call center staffs are pretty well trained and are few of the best in this job it is for the sake of the business that an in-house team should take the responsibility of monitoring the performance of the former.
Here are a few parameters that should be assessed for the purpose of quality check. Most of these parameters are very quantitative in nature. It is indeed an irony that quality is being assessed with the help of quantity but such an arrangement is opted for keeping with the intention of making the whole quality check program much more objective and transparent. To name a few parameters there are- the number of calls handled by each customer care executive, how long does each executive need to answer a call- it is advised that each and every call should be answered within the first couple of rings itself, the average call handling time, the number of callers who seems to be satisfied with the service and a few more. The average call handling time is a parameter definitely but care should be taken that the customer care executives do not end a call hastily to reduce their call timing for scoring an extra star in the evaluations sheet. This is not going to help the business to put up a caring and responsible image in front of the customers.
To add to the quality of the answering services the businesses need to make sure that the department under consideration is working round the clock. The customers might need assistance at any hour of the day, the inability to take care of their needs and requirements might go against the business. Also with the almost all the business enterprises going global the enterprises do not have any other choice but to ensure that the telephone answering services are available 24/7. Here in the call centers India becomes so crucial.
