Two Main Methods Exist for Call Tracking

  • Click Level: To track clicks through to offline conversion on a call requires Ring Pool phone numbers
  • Source Level: To track at a Campaign Source level, only 1 number is required.

Ok, lead is on the line, now what?
Should we connect the lead with the next qualified matching buyer/agent who has been waiting the longest for a call?

  • Make buyers/agents compete for the call
  • Add protection by setting up Overflow and Afterhours call flow handling

Using data and information from the lead record to select which agents/buyers to offer the call to

What is a Speed to Press 1 Competition?

  • Taking the list of matching, prioritized agents/buyers and offering the call to them in a handicapped but still partially overlapping manner.
  • The first agent/buyer to press a key wins the competition and is awarded the call.

When Call Buyers Compete, Everyone Wins

  • Faster connection = happier consumer
  • Connection and Billable rate dramatically increase
  • Less arguments over the abandoned calls
  • Buyers only paying for calls they win
  • Helps mitigate impacts of demand spikes

 

In Addition To Call Distribution, Solid Overflow and After Hours will help you scale
For example:

  • Configure back-up call centers and backup buyers of last resort
  • Tiered hunt groups
  • Intelligent Abandonment

  • Use real-time competitive call competitions to distribute calls
