I was talking to a friend the other day. He purchased an expensive new car just eight months ago. Unfortunately, the car turned out to be a “lemon,” and he has taken it back to the dealer multiple times for various problems. The car has spent more time at the repair center than in his garage. If it were me, I’d ask the dealer to replace the car. Apparently, he has more patience than I do and was giving the dealer another chance to fix the car.

‘Auto dialer’ is a broad term for any dialer software that makes calls one at a time. A power dialer is one of two major types of auto dialers. If the auto dialer doesn’t need the salesperson to tell it to dial the next number, it’s a power dialer. If the dialer needs human input to move to the next number, it’s a preview dialer. But we get the confusion — different brands call their dialer products different names without being clear about what the product actually does, and you’re left clueles

The first step in a successful Customer Experience endeavor (or for that matter, any business proposition) is to find out what’s wrong. If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in.
