Imagine this: your company launches a sales promotion. Customer contact revs up higher than expected, and the phones are ringing off the hook with customer calls. Your customer care team is working hard to address each call in a timely manner, but volume is too high to efficiently maintain.
Most businesses have experienced a situation like this. Several events such as response to a promotion, an emergency situation, or unexpected website issues can create unexpected demand from customer care functions. Consumers today expect speedy customer care, even in times of high contact volume. Preparing for unexpected customer demand with traditional contact centers can be costly and time consuming.
