Analyze Your Productivity KPIs Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) provide valuable insights into your call center’s performance. Some of the most telling KPIs to monitor include: High AverageHandlingTime (AHT): Indicates that calls are taking too long to resolve, often due to inefficiencies or complex issues.
Unlike inbound call centers where all incoming calls are being answered, outbound call centers are just the opposite. In outbound customer support, a call center agent will make calls to customers on behalf of its clients. However, to accomplish this goal, both call centers use various methods and technologies.
Upselling and Cross-selling. Skilled inbound call center agents don’t stop at addressing customer needs. That is their primary function, but they also seize opportunities to upsell and cross-sell. In this way, an inbound call center can become a source of additional revenue. What do inbound call center agents do?
This requires moving beyond outdated metrics like call volume or averagehandletime and focusing on what really mattersfirst call resolution, customer satisfaction, and long-term trust. Tools like Balto provide real-time coaching to ensure agents respond with empathy, accuracy, and efficiency.
In this case, the inbound call center can be a game changer. More Room for Cross-Selling and Upselling Opportunities Cross-selling means selling related or supplementary products to customers. Upselling means selling higher-end variants of a product to customers. It includes talk time as well as hold time.
