An important
means of increasing productivity and profitability within your
company is the implementation of an automatic call distribution
(ACD) system.
Particularly
in those companies that have a high volume of incoming telephone
calls, economic success is heavily dependent on how quickly a
customer can get in touch with you, for example to make a reservation
or to place an order. Telephone contact with customers is therefore
a top priority.
In many cases
a high volume of incoming telephone calls results in a percentage
of those calls being either not answered or receiving a busy signal.
With the use of an ACD system, these calls can instead be queued
and allocated to agents as they become available.
The use of
ACD systems thus increases the number of calls accepted, ensures
that resources are better utilized, and can provide real-time
and detailed statistics for optimising customer services.
