Call recording has long been used in customer service call centers, but it can also be useful in other areas of business as well. Consider using call recording in your business to help improve service, improve training, improve customer satisfaction and improve your protection.
Improve Service
Recording calls allows the business to review calls for trends. If there is a sudden increase in phone calls around a specific product or service this will give the business specific information on what is happening to so you can provide a prompt solution.
Employees and managers can also review calls to determine the best way to handle specific situations. This information can then be shared with others who may interact with customers, thus benefiting everyone.
Call recording can also be used to identify individuals who are not performing well on the phone. Whether it is sales calls or customer service calls early identification can allow the business to identify a problem before it effects the bottom line.
Improve Training
Sharing information and best practices from call recording is only one way to improve training. Allowing employees to listen to their calls can help them identify speech patterns and communication habits that may need correcting. They can then self correct these habits.
Call recording will also allow management to determine how closely company policy is being followed. If there are individuals who are not following proper procedures this can impact customer satisfaction. Call monitoring can also be used to help create new policies to address new situations.
Improve Customer Satisfaction
Customer satisfaction improves as calls are handled quickly and more effectively. Improvements in training and providing quick feedback directly to the individuals taking the calls will impact the quality of service provided to the customer.
Improve Your Protection
It is impossible to make everyone happy all of the time. Sooner or later an unhappy customer will raise a dispute. When calls are recorded this information can be very helpful in resolving a dispute.
The simple act of recording calls will impact behavior because the employee knows they are being watched. This is similar to improvements in driving behavior when company drivers know their actions are being recorded. Call recording is just one method to make improvements to customer satisfaction in your business.
