The Importance of Delivering Contact Center Consistency

Consistency is crucial for any aspect of brand management and operations, but it is especially important for customer service. Providing a single first-class experience is great, but if your goal is to retain customers—and it should be—you have to be confident that your contact center is delivering a high quality of customer service with every interaction. But how do you ensure that your representatives handle each inquiry with care?

Consistent customer service starts with the employees delivering that service. That’s why at InfoCision we take a unique approach to hiring and training our Communicators. When you partner with InfoCision you get more than just an employee; our contact center experts become a personal yet professional extension of your own internal team and we ensure they are fully prepared. Our Communicators:

• Have an average age of over 40 years and an average tenure of more than 4.5 years, and 78 percent are full-time employees
• Receive up to four months of client-specific training and are brand experts by the time training is complete
• Are provided the opportunity to earn performance-based compensation and, as such ,are committed to the highest level of professionalism

When it comes to interactions with your business, customers have a long memory. It takes numerous positive experiences to make up for a negative one—that is, if the customer even decides to give you another chance. With that in mind, our Communicators immerse themselves in your company culture and core competencies before ever taking a call and are better equipped to handle a wide range of customer concerns as a result. Additionally, because they know your brand so well, these Communicators can consistently project the image and deliver the message that you want.

An easy way to think about best practices for contact center operations is to remember that your service is only as good as the last experience you provided. So it is critical to make sure you have experienced, professional Communicators in place to handle every call like it’s the most important your company will ever receive.
