You may think that having hunt groups are mandatory and even helping your business. It’s a great feature when using a hosted pbx system and can work for some businesses. However, conditions are changing for many businesses and hunt groups are proving to no handle the call volume that may be increasing. It may be time for your business to completely eliminate the idea of hunt groups and adopt a new type of service – cloud call center.
Here are 5 signs that its time to move on from your hunt groups:
Sign 1: Your customers are left in a maze.
If your calls are bouncing from department to department, customers are leaving frustrated. The whole experience for a customer is important for your business and you should not be leaving them lost with the wrong person.
Sign 2: No flexibility in staffing.
You should be able to have the freedom of scalability. If the process of hiring and downsizing during business seasonality is taking too much time and money then you should highly consider a cloud call center.
Sign 3: Caller Data is unknown.
You may have not a clue the amount of calls that you are receiving and answering. You also have no idea the quality of the call or the time it takes the callers to find the right department.
Sign 4: You want to route calls on a timely schedule.
This is when you want to start organizing your calling route based on the time and maybe the date. Changing when and where the calls go is sometimes the best method for a business to be productive.
Sign 5: Endless ringing.
Your customers are left for more than 30 seconds with the sound of ringing until they reach someone. Customers who wait more are more likely not to be satisfied with your business. This can lead to them running in the arms of your competitors.
With a cloud call center, you can leave the work to a highly optimized service to handle the calls. You will be able to control how your business communicated with clients with great quality customer service. You can analyze caller data and make your business the most productive it has ever been. There will be more time with the core values instead of wasted time on hiring and staffing for a small call center at your business site. Customer experience will be greatly influenced and your business will no longer need to be embarrassed about the call waiting time.
