WANT TO MAKE YOUR CALL CENTRE WORLD CLASS?
LEARN THE SECRETS OF HOW AN I.T. GEEK AND
FORMER UNION REP REVOLUTIONISED
AN UNDERPERFORMING CALL CENTRE.
LET ME EXPLAIN:
I'm Stuart Corrigan, and I'd like to share with you some secrets
about high performing call centres. And I bet what you're about to
learn is the exact opposite of what you've been told about how to
manage your call centre. But first let me tell you a story.
About six years ago I was contacted by the Operations Director of a
large call centre. His name was Laurence Barrett (actually it still
is), and he was in charge of the VELUX UK call centre.
Laurence had a dilemma, he knew I.T, so naturally he did everything
that the call centre technology people told him to do: measure average
handling time, calls waiting, and wrap up time etc.
Now he also had done a few management courses so spent a great deal
of his time doing 1:1s. But alas the more he set targets and
counselled and coached his staff the worse his call centre performed
(that shouldn't be should it?)
The beauty of this story is that because Laurence didn't know much
about the call centre world he was open to new ways of thinking about
the design and management of his centre (are you? if so keep reading).
So he started working with a philosophy called systems thinking
(stay awake now), hired a guy who knew nothing about call centres (an
ex-union man called Ron Skea) and guess what happened?
12 functional units combined into a SINGLE POINT OF CONTACT for
all customer transactions
ONE STOP capability in excess of 94%
HIGHEST CUSTOMER SATISFACTION RATINGS of all VELUX sales
companies in Europe
Employee TURNOVER and ABSENCE rates LESS THAN HALF THE INDUSTRY
norm
Call centre agent PRODUCTIVITY INCREASED BY 30%
Independent research found HIGHEST LEVELS OF EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
of any organisation studied
OPERATING COSTS REDUCED by in excess of £1,000,000
AVERAGE WAIT TIME reduced to 8 SECONDS
OVERALL STAFFING 30% LOWER than would have been without systems
intervention
FAILURE DEMAND and WASTE REDUCED DRAMATICALLY
Laurence and Ron, paid lots of money to learn how to use the system
that delivered these results. And they achieved these by doing the
exact opposite of anything you will read in a call centre manual,
course, or from any of the call centre governing bodies. You can only
get this stuff here.
So given the current economic climate I decided to document every
single step required to replicate what Laurence and Ron achieved. It
took me eleven months to write the guide and then it was edited by Ron
(who now runs our call centre division) to make sure that every single
example, anecdote and tip is highly relevant to call centres and
service organisations.
HERE'S SOME OF THE SECRETS YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS INFORMATIVE GUIDE:
1. How to make sure that EVERYONE in your call centre is FOCUSED ON
SOLVING CUSTOMER PROBLEMS, in a way that is good for the customer and
the call centre. This is the first thing you learn, it takes about 20
MINUTES TO IMPLEMENT.
2. How to FIND OUT HOW MANY OF YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE UNHAPPY. This
takes about A DAY TO DO, and you can repeat it over and over again.
The results from this chapter alone will astonish you. IMPLEMENT THIS
IDEA and not only will you IMPROVE SERVICE but you will IMPROVE MORALE
and SAVE MONEY too.
3. Find out why USING TARGETS WILL MAKE YOUR CALL CENTRE BOMB, and
what to do instead. USE MEASURES to help you UNDERSTAND and IMPROVE
the PERFORMANCE of your call centre. YOU'RE NOT DOING THIS JUST NOW I
assure you.
4. Learn to STUDY PROCESSES in such a way that you can CUT OUT AT
LEAST 50% OF THE NON-VALUE ADDING WORK that hurts your service ratings
and adds to your cost. You will kick yourself at the simplicity of
this method.
5.You'll see how to BRING THE INFORMATION YOU'VE GATHERED and put it
together in a compelling picture that literally screams out the
solution for change.
6. And you'll learn how to PRESENT THAT DATA TO SENIOR EXECUTIVES so
that they can't help but TAKE ACTION. Never be boring with data again.
7. And we will show you STEP BY STEP HOW TO DESIGN NEW POLICIES AND
PROCESSES FOR YOUR CALL CENTRE, policies that are not practiced by the
rest of the call centre world. This will not only give your call
centre a competitive advantage, IT WILL PUT YOUR CAREER ON STEROIDS.
8. Then you'll see HOW TO BUILD A PLAN that actually uses the
resistance to change TO KICK START IDEAS and get down with the detail
to make sure that you've got all the bases covered before you make a
change.
9. You'll learn how to MINIMISE RISK OF FALSE STARTS by testing.
This is not a mathematical model, you'll be taking real demand and
learning how to tweak and change to opimise before you roll in the
rest of the call centre. THIS WILL HELP YOU MOVE FAST WITH LITTLE OR
NO RISK.
10. You'll see the MORALE OF YOUR STAFF LITERALLY TRANSFORM within a
few weeks.
11. You'll feel ENTHUSIASM FOR CHANGE.
12. You'll also find out how to TRANSFORM YOUR JOB FOR THE BETTER,
how to make it more interesting, you'll ADD UP UP TO 95% MORE VALUE.
And how to make sure that that CHANGE KEEPS ON GOING. Imagine every
day getting 1% better, within one year that's a whole lot of change!
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
Well here's how the system works.
You get three guides.
The first explains in sequence and with detailed simple steps
exactly how to gather the data you will need to find out why and to
what extent your call centre is failing. It's simple but very
effective, and best of all once you know how to do it you can use the
knowledge again and again.
The first guide also includes templates so that you have all the
analysis tools at your fingertips.
The second guide explains how to bring all the data together, and
present it in such a way that it makes a compelling case for change.
The best bit about this is that your boss will be very impressed with
your insight into the business. Again you will have pictures and fill
in the blank templates to make it easy for you.
In the third guide you get led by the hand on how to set up a test
area in your call centre and how to take even the best performing call
centre to the next level. Very few in the industry are doing this. By
following the advice in this guide you will be able to make a
significant improvement to performance every day you turn up to the
office.
In addition you get templates and MP3s.
IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU? HERE ARE THREE COMMON QUESTIONS.
What if my call centre is already high performing, can I still use
this?
This will take it to the next level. We've been using this system in
call centres for 11 years and haven't seen one that couldn't be
improved by at least 75%.
What if I've been trying to fix my call centre for months, even
years, and haven't made much impact, will this work?
Many managers have tried with no joy to make improvements in the
organisation. They failed not because of lack of effort or enthusiasm,
but because of lack of method.
What if it just doesn't work in my call centre?
If you really can't get it to work, drop us an e-mail and we will
refund your money in full. In fact check out our guarantee below.
