Make an outbound progressive campaign call
Feedback?In the Progressive dialer, the agent doesn’t need to manually start the outbound call. When an agent completes a call and moves to the Available state, the dialer automatically dials the next number in the contact list. The dialer dials contact for every available agent. The agent hears the call ring out to the customer. The caller connects to an agent. Progressive dialers are ideal where the calls are similar in nature and the agents benefit when the system connects them to contact.
The administrator creates campaigns and configures the dialing mode (progressive). An outdial queue that is associated with the outdial entry point chooses the agent. The system displays the contact entries in the Interaction Control pane when the customer call connects. For more information about screen pop, see the section Screen Pop.
You can join an active progressive campaign if you are in the team that is associated with the outdial queue.
When the campaign is active, the Outbound icon is visible along with the campaign name in the incoming pop over. The incoming call connects and the agent can hear the call. If the contact answers the call, the agent connects to the contact, and the Interaction panel displays the contact information. The agent chooses a wrap-up code to wrap up the call.
The Call Guide tab is visible in the Auxiliary Information pane if your administrator has configured questions and answers at the campaign level. The system prompts you to answer a question. Based on the answer, you traverse through the next set of questions in the call guide. Submit your responses to complete your call guide.
As part of the progressive campaign feature, all customer calls are placed by the dialer, and the agent no longer hears the call ring-out. When the dialer successfully reaches a live voice customer, it merges the call with the agent. The agent hears a short zip tone, and the interaction panel displays the customer information. The zip tone is only heard by the agent.
AgentWrap-Up Codes for Progressive Campaigns
You can choose a set of predefined wrap-up codes in the Interaction pane for common inbound and outbound calls. Campaign Manager maps the following configurations that are available on the Agent Desktop. Choose the relevant codes to wrap up a campaign call.
