Determining the Best Solution for Your Company

3 Models of Support to Provide the Best Solution for Your Company

Complete Call Solutions support allows you to have a customized solution that meets not only your business goals and your customer’s needs, but also provides the best return on investment.

Shared and dedicated agents have different perspectives, both providing powerful and important services, and it’s important to get the best qualities from each. For many clients, a group of shared, well versed, and well trained agents is the most cost effective means of establishing outstanding customer service. On the sales side, it is more often that a dedicated group of agents will outperform in the areas of sales volume, cross-selling, and upselling.

Dedicated

Dedicated customer care solutions are a great option when looking to create a more personal connection with your customers.

With dedicated services, you are charged by the hour for each associate needed to handle your contact volume and desired response times. We are able to provide one or more agents that are dedicated exclusively to your account. These agents act as employees of your company and are trained specifically to work within your systems. The volume of calls helps to solidify familiarity with your products or services. Directing calls to agents that are more proficient on your account helps maintain efficiency and maximizes your return. They are capable of working on multiple tasks, such as chat, email, and reporting.

Dedicated Solutions:

Agents are on one account and only one account.
Dedicated agents gain experience quickly.
Dedicated teams have a team atmosphere.
Great for handling administrative tasks and advanced support. (Data entry, mailings, faxes, social media monitoring, off the call troubleshooting, tier 2 & 3 support)
Great for handling high volume programs.
CCS continually makes recommendations on the idea staffing to meet your goals as your program changes over time.
Just like an in house team but with all extras and none of the management hassles.

Shared

Shared customer care solutions are a great value because you only pay for the actual time we spend communicating with your customers.

Clients with a lower call volume or those who wish to have the flexibility to handle spikes in call volume benefit most from this model. At any given time, our shared agents represent a number of accounts and brands. Agents are extensively trained on each client’s business policies, procedures, and guidelines before taking on their account. Whether we are processing orders, answering product questions, or checking an order status you can rest assured that our agents are providing the most efficient customer service to resolve calls quickly and effectively.

Shared Solution:

Agents are on multiple accounts that are similar in nature.
You only pay for what you use.
We track your volume and handle the staffing to meet your preferred service levels.
Great for handling low volume programs of programs that have sporadic volume.
Larger team of agents provides built in redundancy in case of an unforeseen increase in call volume.
Clients receive 24×7 coverage without paying for an agent to sit and wait for a call that may not come in.
All the benefits of a professional customer relationship management company for about the cost of hiring one in house agent.

Blended

Blended customer care solutions are a great balance between the cost conscience of the shared solution and the high touch of knowledge from the dedicated solution.

Blended Solution:

The blended solution is a combination of dedicated and shared agents. The best of both worlds.
Dedicated agents handle the core volume while shared agents handle rollover and off hours.
The dedicated team size is consistently evaluated to ensure they are at peak efficiency.
Routing certain interactions only to the dedicated agents will reduce or eliminated per interaction costs.
The shared team receives the same training as the dedicated team to ensure they have the same capabilities.
All agents are located near each other to ensure communication between shared and dedicated teams.
If we need to expand the dedicated team we have a pool of trained agents ready to move into that position from the shared group.
