so there is one perk to dating me after all: i can make make phone calls for you, it doesn't bother me 💋

[rosethornewrites]

In my life, I’ve had a myriad of jobs, having started doing paper routes as a preteen. Among those jobs were three different call center jobs.

The first one was telemarketing, but mostly limited to calling DirecTV customers to convince them to upgrade, though a few times I had to do cold call credit cards and that sucked. I often had to deal with people angry that I was calling, which I understood completely. Unfortunately I needed a job.

It started as a summer gig, and required 20 hours. I asked to cut my hours when I started the semester at uni but they wouldn’t. I lasted until October with 17 credit hours and 20 hours of work, all intensive classes, before I nearly got hit by a car because I was so tired. When I quit they offered to lower my hours but lol that was too late. I went home and slept 12 hours and focused on school.

The second time was university fundraising, ostensibly connected to the alumni association, which included updating demographic information. Got a lot of folks who were out of work, so I was able to direct them to the alumni career center. I found out later it was only available for people less than 5 years past graduation—when I needed it, of course. That one was dependent on whether there were enough computer stations for everyone who showed up. I was in between undergrad and grad school, so one such night that I was sent home, I got a call from them and it was hilarious.

The last one was a summer job during graduate school, and involved administering telephone surveys. It was also an election year (2008, Obama versus McCain), so some of them were less surveys and more attempts to campaign or smear the opponent. I learned a lot about crappy surveys during that time.

A lot of the folks I worked with were felons and couldn’t vote, but they were all good folks and we ate lunch together daily and chatted. Probably one of the least drama-filled of any place I’ve worked. And of the call center jobs I’ve worked, probably the least annoying—I genuinely enjoyed getting folks to take the surveys and most people were polite. I only worked there one summer because the company shut the place down to downsize. I would’ve gone back.

I don’t have to do those types of jobs anymore because I can pick up adjuncting gigs now, but they were interesting experiences. The latter I used when teaching field research practices in classes, even.

My mom once picked up a scam call and just shouted "WHAT?!" so loud the guy on the other end got startled and just hung up afskjjsgdgl This other time, I was getting like 6-8 calls a day from """Amazon""" and eventually I got so pissed off I just picked up, and the automated message started but I just kept pressing 0 until finally I heard ringing, and after a bit some guy answered like "Uhhh hello?" And I was like "Hi! I'm calling about the fraudulent purchases on my Amazon account?" And he was like "Oh - yes, I can help you with that, Miss'' and starts explaining about this ~terrible scam~ they called to warn me about. Meanwhile I can literally hear like, kids playing and a tv on in the background??? So I let him talk for a moment and then I was like "Wow, that's crazy. But you know what's even crazier is the fact that you guys think I'm this stupid." And he was just kinda silent so I was like ''Take me off your call list or whatever and leave me the fuck alone'' and hung up. I didn't really expect that to work but they actually did stop calling! But the best was another other time, I was getting calls every day from this one number (although only once a day so I'll give them that) and again, I got really sick of it so I just picked up and said hello. The guy on the other end started off on some spiel about how his company would be my best choice if I had property I wanted to sell or was looking to buy, and that we could start the consultation right over the phone. I've never owned property. But I said "Actually I am thinking about relocating and I have a large property that I'd be looking to sell." Phone Guy was EVER so excited about this and was like, "We can absolutely get that done for you Ms [Last Name]! Could you describe the kind of property you're looking for?" And I was like "Well, it needs to be pretty big because there's a lot of us" and he goes "Oh, about how large would you need?" and I said, "We need around 20 bedrooms and at least 5 bathrooms, although more would be preferable." He said something like "Okay, we can try to find something that size for you … Is that the size of the property you'd be looking to sell?" and I said "No, this one only has about 13 rooms and 3 bathrooms, and we're outgrowing it. There are nearly 30 of us here." He was kinda silent for a sec but then he just said "I see! So what else would you be looking for in your new property?" I was like "Well, ideally a large basement." and he was like "Oh, would that be like an entertaining space or for sleeping?" and I was like "Neither, it would be for the dungeon." He was silent again and asked (kinda suspiciously, not sure why) "The dungeon?" I said, "Yes. We're a Satanist commune and the dungeon is essential for sacrifices." He really seemed to need a second after that for some reason, but I just waited. Finally he comes back and goes "A Satanist commune?" kinda half-laughing like he's not sure if I'm serious. I kept my voice completely chipper and professional and I was like "Yes, we worship Lucifer?" He goes, "Okay, I'm gonna transfer you to my supervisor" and put me on hold. (Kinda rude, like ... you could ask) After like a minute some other guy comes on the line and he's like "I hear you're looking for a property for a specific purpose?" and I wasn't sure what the other dude told him so I just said "That's right, I'm looking for a large home for my Satanist commune, with space for a dungeon or similar area for sacrifices." I could literally hear the first guy laughing in the background as the supervisor is just like "Riiight …" And I said, "Ideally, I'd like to sell my current property to a group with similar interests, as we worked pretty hard on our current dungeon and I'd hate to see it go to waste." And he said "Well Miss, you have a great day" and then hung up on me! I almost called them back, but I decided to let it go. I still don't know if this was some kind of scam or if they were legit, but either way they never did call back to follow up with me re: my Satanist commune.

I’m just thinking about how many times I’ve heard my dad on a long call with an obvious scammer and I’ll start begging him to get off the phone because I always think he’s a very easy mark and he’ll just keep going and then after a while he’ll say something like “I died 20 years ago” and hang up.

How to Personalize Your Telemarketing Approach: A Brief Guide

Introduction 

Telemarketing services have become the essence of every business. The initial expectation from a telemarketing service is to boost the industry, add more clientele, and retain the client with timely interactions. But does this all happen? What is the success rate of implementing such services? Recent studies show that the success rate is minimal, but it is worth noting that these services have become the backbone of any company. Therefore, making the most out of telemarketing services requires a personalized touch. 

Strategies to Personalize Your Telemarketing Approach 

Utilize Analytical Data Information  

Data analytics is a game-changing tool for personalizing telemarketing services. By examining consumer data, it is possible to acquire valuable insights into their preferences, purchasing behaviors, and pain points.  

Ways to utilize data analytics are: 

Segmenting the customers: Divide your audience into segments based on demographics, engagement levels, and purchase history. 

Adapting predictive approach: Employ predictive models to anticipate customer requirements and adjust your strategy accordingly. 

Relying on real-time facts: Monitor and adjust your telemarketing campaigns in real-time based on user responses. 

Develop Customized Scripts 

In the current market, a universally applicable script will not suffice.  The use of customized scripts can enhance engagement by catering to the unique requirements and interests of each consumer. 

Methods to customize scripts include: 

Establishing a personal connection: A proper salutation accompanied by the customer’s name always gives a personal touch when cold calling. It also builds a personal rapport. 

Appreciate their loyalty towards business: To retain a customer, it's essential to acknowledge how valuable their input has been in the past engagement with the company. 

Give offers/ discounts: Present solutions and offers that are pertinent to the customer's present requirements and preferences. 

Adaptation of Artificial Intelligence and Programming Language Learning 

AI and machine learning are trend-setting technologies that have the potential to transform call center services. Giving this Gen-Z concept a personalized touch will reap incredible benefits. 

The advantages are as follows: 

Personalized AI communication: AI can customize messages and offers by analyzing real-time data and customer behavior. 

Prospective profile enhancing: Machine learning gathers data and analyzes algorithms to create detailed profiles of the customers. 

Improved Call Outcomes: With the assistance of AI, the most effective messaging and the optimal call times for each customer are anticipated and rolled out to boost the call success rate.  

Customer Relationship Management System 

Customer is the key to maintaining every business regardless of the industry. There are essential systems developed solely to cater to customers and their expectations. One of the systems is Customer Relationship Management. It is crucial for managing and personalizing customer interactions, giving them timely solutions for their grievances. Let’s read a few ways how this can be done. 

CRM systems enhance personalization through: 

Customer record centralizing: Keep all customer information in one place for easy access and analysis. 

Auto-timed follow-ups: Schedule and automate follow-up calls and emails based on customer interactions. 

Tracking customer data and preferences: CRM data is used to customize communication and track customer preferences. 

Engage in Active Listening 

Active listening is crucial for understanding customer needs and providing personalized solutions. 

The techniques for effective active listening are: 

Ask Open-Ended Questions: Encourage customers to share more about their needs and experiences. 

Show Empathy: Acknowledge and validate customer concerns to build trust and rapport. 

Take Notes: Record essential details during the call to personalize future interactions. 

You can ensure your customers feel heard and valued by training your telemarketing team in active listening techniques. 

Embrace Multichannel Communication 

Sticking just to cold calling won’t generate much results. Other modes of communication, like Email, text messages, and social media connectivity, are helpful in follow-up and generating desired results. 

Don't limit yourself to just phone calls—explore other communication channels like email, SMS, and social media. 

Use a multichannel approach to engage with prospects on their preferred platforms and enhance the personalization of your outreach efforts. 

Coordinate messaging across channels to ensure consistency and reinforce your brand's presence. 

Wrapping Up 

In the current market context, customized telemarketing is no longer an additional benefit but a requirement. Creating telemarketing techniques that resonate with your audience and assist in delivering results must be implemented as soon as possible. It is usually accomplished by applying data analytics, designing personalized scripts, implementing artificial intelligence, utilizing customer relationship management systems, and engaging in active listening.

How a Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPO) Center Can Transform Your Business Strategy

Introduction

In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPO) has emerged as a pivotal strategy for organizations seeking to enhance their operational efficiency and gain a competitive edge. KPO involves the outsourcing of complex tasks that require specialized knowledge and expertise, making it distinct from traditional outsourcing models.

Understanding Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPO)

Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPO) refers to the practice of outsourcing tasks that require specialized knowledge and expertise, often involving analysis, research, and complex decision-making. Unlike traditional Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), which typically handles routine tasks, KPO focuses on higher-level processes that add significant value to organizations.

Industries That Benefit from KPO Services

Manufacturing: KPO in manufacturing involves supply chain management, product development, and quality assurance. By outsourcing these knowledge-intensive tasks, manufacturers can optimize their processes, reduce costs, and improve product quality.

Information Technology: KPO services in IT include software development, data analysis, and IT consulting. Companies can leverage KPO expertise to enhance their technological capabilities and focus on strategic IT initiatives.

Healthcare: KPO firms provide services such as medical billing, coding, and clinical research, allowing healthcare providers to focus on patient care.

Finance: KPO services in financial modeling, risk analysis, and investment research help financial institutions make informed decisions.

Legal: Legal process outsourcing enables law firms to streamline research, documentation, and compliance processes, enhancing efficiency.

Real Estate: In the real estate industry, KPO services encompass property research, market analysis, and financial modeling. Real estate firms can make informed investment decisions and enhance property management practices.

Benefits of Establishing a KPO Center

Enhanced Global Competitiveness

KPO can significantly improve a company's competitive positioning in the global market. By leveraging specialized expertise, businesses can enhance their service offerings and differentiate themselves from competitors. This competitive edge is particularly crucial in industries characterized by rapid change and innovation.

Cost-effectiveness and Scalability

KPO offers significant financial benefits, including reduced labor costs and improved resource allocation. Additionally, KPO centers provide scalability, allowing businesses to adjust their outsourcing needs based on market demands without the overhead associated with in-house operations.

Access to Specialized Expertise

Focus on Core Competencies

Outsourcing specialized tasks allows organizations to focus on their core business activities.

Faster Decision-Making

KPO firms provide insights and data analysis that can accelerate business decisions.

Scalability and Flexibility

Businesses can scale operations without the need for significant upfront investments in staff or infrastructure.

SETTING UP A SUCCESSFUL KPO CENTER

Ensuring robust data protection is crucial in KPO operations. Organizations must implement encryption, access controls, and compliance with regulatory standards to safeguard sensitive information.

Technology Infrastructure:

Investing in advanced software and platforms enhances data processing, communication, and project management, ensuring seamless operations.

Skilled Workforce:

Recruiting talented professionals and providing continuous training on industry trends are key to KPO success.

Target Markets and Services:

Conducting market research helps KPO centers identify potential clients and tailor services to meet specific needs, fostering strong client relationships and effectiveness.

Future of KPO Centers

Increased Focus on Customer Experience

KPO centers will prioritize enhancing the customer experience by providing personalized and responsive services. Understanding client needs and delivering tailored solutions will become crucial for maintaining long-term partnerships and driving business success.

This could include emerging fields such as blockchain technology, cybersecurity, and sustainable business practices, allowing companies to access cutting-edge solutions tailored to their unique challenges.

Increased Automation and AI Integration

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation technologies will transform KPO services by enhancing efficiency and accuracy. Intelligent systems can streamline data analysis, automate repetitive tasks, and provide predictive insights, enabling KPO centers to deliver quicker and more precise results.
