Predictive Dialer System
Telemarketing is a key marketing strategy in most businesses today. Campaigns are organised and run to market products and customer responses are captured and analysed. Call centres have revolutionised such campaigns and in a certain sense, it even be said that only with the advent of call center systems and their rising popularity did telemarketing get the importance it has today. Predictive dialer systems are the computerized systems that have simplified campaign management & operations and they are used in every organization to run smart campaigns.
What are predictive dialer systems?
A predictive dialer system processes calls that emanate from within the system in association with campaigns (outbound calls). A predictive dialer automatically lists the numbers selected for the outbound campaign and places the calls and connects it back to the agent when the call is answered by a customer and screen unnecessary responses like waiting signals, answering machines and busy lines. This helps in improving the productivity of agents and is cost effective as well.
Predictive dialers run on sophisticated statistical algorithms that aim at minimising the agent’s waiting time between conversations and offer controls to speed up or slow down the call rates as per the requirement.
