BDC Strategy & Process

What is Blended Calling, and Is It a Good Idea For Your BDC?

July 15, 2024

In the ever-evolving customer service landscape, call blending has emerged as a powerful strategy to enhance customer and BDC agent experiences. But what exactly is blended calling, and why is it considered a good idea?

Understanding Call Blending

Call blending is integrating inbound and outbound call handling within a single system. Instead of having separate teams or systems for managing incoming and outgoing calls, a blended call strategy allows agents to handle both types seamlessly. This ensures a more efficient workflow and better resource utilization.

Benefits of Call Blending

  1. Improved Customer and Agent Interactions: Call blending allows for more fluid interaction between customers and agents. When an inbound call comes in, it is routed to an available agent, ensuring that customers do not have to wait long to speak with a representative. This immediate connection fosters a positive customer experience and can lead to higher satisfaction rates.
  2. Increased Agent Productivity: By managing both inbound and outbound calls, agents can maintain a steady workflow. This continuous engagement keeps agents busy and reduces idle time, significantly boosting their productivity. Moreover, agents are better utilized, ensuring their skills and time are maximized effectively.
  3. Seamless Workflow: A blended call strategy ensures a seamless transition between handling incoming and outgoing calls. This fluidity prevents bottlenecks and ensures that customer inquiries are addressed promptly, contributing to a smoother operational flow.
  4. Enhanced Morale and Engagement: Agents benefit from the variety call blending brings. Instead of being confined to inbound or outbound calls, they experience a mix, making their workday more exciting and engaging. This variety can improve morale and job satisfaction, which are crucial for maintaining a motivated workforce.
  5. Happy Customers = Increased Revenue: Satisfied customers are likely to remain loyal and make repeat purchases. Companies can enhance customer satisfaction by ensuring that customers receive prompt and efficient service through a blended call approach, leading to increased revenue. Happy customers are also more likely to recommend the company to others, further boosting sales and brand reputation.

The Role of the Right Software

Implementing call blending for inbound and outbound calls effectively requires the right software. This software should offer several key features:

  • Data Management: Tracking customer interactions and data ensures that agents have the information they need to provide personalized service.
  • Scripts: Providing agents with scripts helps maintain consistency and quality in customer interactions.
  • Real-Time Dashboard: A dashboard that shows real-time metrics allows managers to monitor agent performance and workflow, ensuring accountability and identifying areas for improvement.
  • Routing and Handling: Ensuring that calls are routed to the most appropriate and available agent reduces wait times and improves efficiency.

With the right software, both agents and customers benefit. Agents can work more effectively and feel more engaged while customers receive the timely and high-quality service they expect.

Conclusion

Call blending is beneficial for many dealerships looking to improve their BDC customer service operations. It enhances interactions, boosts agent productivity, and ensures a seamless workflow. By using the right software, companies can maximize the benefits of call blending, resulting in happier customers and more motivated agents. This can lead to increased revenue and a more robust overall business performance.
