So any way you can reduce that turnover is obviously going to be a huge help and one of those ways might be gamification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all the new <a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLZZlyh-i9KV_IvaLrVDaDBrpBO6osXaql\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cloud call center solutions<\/a> out there, one of the cool things they&#8217;re doing is building-in gamification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>What does it look like?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what that means is if you think about it\u2026 what if when you hire a call center agent, if you automatically had a way to give them like a coin system where automatically just on your hire date you get 10,000 coins?&#8230; and those coins vest 25% within the first &#8230; Every month within the first four months or something like that. So, you know, &#8220;Hey, we&#8217;ll give you 10,000 coins just to begin with and 25% of those will vest every single month that you&#8217;re on board.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Cloud Call Center Software with Gamification\" class=\"wp-image-10443\" width=\"430\" height=\"241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2-250x141.png 250w, https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2-600x338.png 600w, https:\/\/www.aerocominc.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Cloud-Call-Center-Software-with-Gamification-t2.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 430px) 100vw, 430px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Then maybe once you hit month six you get another 30,000 coins, and then you have a whole online web portal where they can use those coins to buy things, like movie tickets or T-shirts or golf equipment or whatever, you can kind of customize it and decide what you want to build in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>What problem does it solve?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a big problem where call center agents just no-call, no-show\u2026 well maybe it&#8217;s because they have nothing to come back for? Maybe they don&#8217;t have anything vested to keep them in their seat all the time or something to look forward to?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or maybe it&#8217;s a way to boost their ego so they can come home and tell their significant other, &#8220;Hey, I just got movie tickets today at my job,&#8221; or things like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The more I think we can do, to give those call center agents a reason to keep coming back to work or a reason to get excited or a reason to feel gratified or proud of themselves I think the better and if <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gamification\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gamification<\/a> is a way to do it, heck we all know that as the younger generations come into the workforce, video games is a huge deal. So any way we can incorporate gamification into the call center is a great idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if all of this sounds kind of interesting to you, one of the things you might want to look into is a contact center service provider who has a built-in gamification platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Who\u2019s good at this?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be wondering, &#8220;Which call center, software companies have that?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t search for it on the internet, just <a href=\"mailto:AskMike@aerocominc.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">email<\/a> or call me (714.593.0011). I&#8217;m a broker for all the major Cloud call center service providers, and based on your company&#8217;s needs, I can kind of match you up with maybe the handful or so of vendors that I&#8217;d recommend that will fit your company specifically the best and I can help you get demos, get quotes, all that stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is you won&#8217;t have to pay my company anything because those service providers pay our company our broker fees. So don&#8217;t google it, you have no excuse to not give us a call.
