INFO SERVICE - EXPERT HOTLINE (IS-EH)
Strategic goals
- For usual consumer questions a standard procedure is provided, i.e. the communication with the customer follows some pre-assigned processes, which on the one hand shall satisfy the consumer, but on the other hand is timesaving for the service provider.
- The high qualified consultants are relieved from irrelevant calls, they are not any more giving general information. Their time is not available free of charge any longer.
- The specialists are reachable only with a special aim. There are references to the individual consultants in the general folders. The consultants are reachable only through the value-added lines. There are references for these special telephone numbers also in the IS.
- The incoming calls are classified.
- At the beginning consumers get standard information materials (folder). This folder contains all offers of the provider and the list of the payable (value added) consultants' telephone numbers.
- The most often required specialized publications are also sent directly.
- This type of sending is linked to the existing structure of "single article sending".
- The potential interests towards the products of the provider are summarized.
Main requirements satisfied
- The duration of a single call is kept short (a call per minute handled at not more than 3 working places).
- The dealing with the program is simple. The developed communication procedures are supported by the program.
- With the purpose to get the wanted result there are preset conversation procedures to be held (such as: no specialized data presenting, sending of standard information material, input of address, input of keywords for statistical classifying of similar calls).
- The program course corresponds to the standard telephone call in IS.
- The rate of the program activities is in conformity with the necessary rate of the process flow (e.g. short waiting time for the database access).
