One way to increase the likelihood of a successful outbound call program is through the use of local caller ID numbers.

2020 Changed the Call Center Landscape forever…

Like virtually every industry, the call center community was directly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. When offices everywhere were forced to shut their doors and send their employees home call centers followed suit, hopeful that agents had the tools they needed to continue to do their jobs efficiently and effectively. A year later, with thousands of employees still working from home, we are taking a look at the factors that optimize a call center agent’s work from home experience and how to make the pandemic-induced business model a sustainable option going forward.  Download the complimentary Working From Home in the Call Center Industry Guide from CallShaper here: https://www.callshaper.com/work-from-home-guide-cctimes/
