Second CRM Back office for Mobile and E-Commerce BusinessesMohandeep Singh
With growing Internet and innovation in technology, its not difficult to start a business purely with a webstore and almost no backend operations.
Once business starts to grow, not having sound back-office can be a big problem, e.g. not able to track howz everything going, or provide timely customer support or collect feedback from unhappy customers, and so on.

As most of us believe AFRICA IS CALLING indeed – it’s bunker down time for our contact centre operations to get better getting right what we do so that it’s portable and transportable across the continent. And that absolutely starts with getting our people ‘right’ first
2020 will be remembered as a somber year when the world changed, right in front of our eyes – week to week, month to month and lockdowns to unlocking. The BPO industry’s response was rapid and the collaboration of various public, private and governmental players was nothing short of noteworthy. It is also the year when South Africa ranked 2nd most favoured offshore destinations of the year. As we come back slowly to the new normal, we need a winning strategy to take us to the next level of service delivery for clients across the world. This will have to be a strategy of taking the South Africa customer experience ‘to the world’ while the world cannot visit (fully) due to the pandemic. This is OUR time.

Editor's Notes
Customer-centric is the key (the strategy core)!.
The concept of customer-centricity is a fairly simple one: it is ruthlessly putting your customer first.
Keep it simple. Demonstrate to your prospects and customers how you focus on their needs. Address how you solve their specific problems. Position yourself as a customer for life company.
Deciding to become a customer for long-term company is an important decision a company can makes. It defines you and gives you a reason for being. Being a customer for long-term company is your competitive advantage.
Articulate your customer centric strategy and go beyond mere manage each customer interaction and get basic satisfaction metrics to be able to provide exceptional customer service and in turn optimize your profitability. How?:
Improving: Communications, Listening, Collaboration, Responsiveness, Problem solving, etc. to increase: repetition of purchase, loyalty, be a referral, cross-sell and up-sell, customer longevity.
To become a customer for long-term company means that you aligned your goals with action, resulting in measurable customer focused outcomes.
Each contact center service, as customer service, support or telesales are as responsible for the success of the business as the sales and marketing departments. So, make of customer experience the job of everyone in your company and specially for everyone into the Contact Center.
Consider that Customer´s changes and habits are the power that set up the trend that Contact Centers have to follow
The current and prospective customers wants what they want when they want it
A good customer service and customer experience is one of their top strategic priorities. Much of this is being driven by increasingly competitive markets. But, it is also being driven by customer behavior. (as shown in the presentation). In addition, further research shows that the top three reasons that customers switch brands are:
1. Interaction with a rude employee;
2. An unexpected charge or fee; and
3. Poor quality of product or service.
What clients want is easiness to do things. To be serviced, to purchase, sell, solve problems, pay, get paid or just making an inquiry. Contact Centres must be prepared to give that kind of service.
Businesses say they recognize the need for better management of a multichannel environment, so, companies are facing big changes, mainly because technological innovations: social media, mobile devices, platforms like CLOUD.
If, as a client I need to repeat the information every step I make, If I receive misleading information or if I have to wait it will be very hard for me to do business with that company, and that relationship might be forever damaged.
- Contact centres continue to face the challenge of meeting rising customer service expectations. Companies that embrace emerging contact center technologies and customer-centric processes that make them more effective will continue to enjoy a competitive edge.
- Customers and markets can change in an instant – a challenge to which only truly customer-centric, collaborative and flexible organizations can respond. As a result, they can drive loyalty and satisfaction with a consistently high-quality experience at every touch point, channel and device.
- By evolving your customer interaction strategies, you can resolve problems faster. Collaboration solutions make it possible to build a customer care strategy from the right communications architecture. That way, you can increase customer loyalty, grow customer revenues and increase agent efficiency and retention. And it’s easier to service customers the way they want – whether in person, by phone, online, through social media, or via video.
Adopting ways that contact centers can improve the quality and efficiency of every interaction is the heart of the most responsive approach to:
Reducing costs through more efficient services
Turning every interaction into a personalized customer experience
Implement simple and lower-effort multi-channel technologies throughout customer experience
Customer expectations are shattering old business models. Customers demand an omni-channel experience that puts them at the heart of customer service operations. To achieve customer care and satisfaction levels, businesses must build an integrated customer-centric strategy.
Customers are shaping the trend Contact Centres have to follow in the future and we have to facilitate their adaptation to interact with the customer´s now and in the future.
This evolutionary vision within the customer relationship frame is what allows us to identify and anticipate emerging demands or to still not recognisable needs and propose new business solutions that might contribute to approach in a non reactive nor late manner market challenges and changes in client´s habits and trends.
We have gone through an individual management of each client interaction to a long term approach, that works integrating and coordinating all interactions, avoiding to break the established relationship with long waits, several attempts to reach the appropriate agent, or having to repeat the same information to several people.
We need to have business solutions capable of changing minds and changing companies to adapt to the new market perspectives and answer complex challenges to incorporate them fast to the internal operations of the company.
One that lets customer service agents work as efficiently as possible – regardless of their location. By providing seamless customer service, organizations can stand out and customers can get in touch the way they want to.
Contact Center agents, who use several disconnected applications during their workday, are demanding the same focus on usability applied to Web based browser tools that presents data in a way that is easy to understand so that they can focus on solving the customer’s issues and in delivering a differentiated service.
Simplifying the agent workspace. This includes removing not needed data elements from agent screens, automating tasks to increase agent productivity, and making relevant information to help personalize the interaction and easily accessible to agents.
Customer service agents need the right data at the right point in the service process to provide the right answers to customer questions. This involves accessing data from the disparate front- and back-end systems that comprise the greater customer service environment as well as trusting the data that is found.
Understand what data is needed at a particular point in the service process and ensure that data is available for service agents to use via agile integrations with other systems.
A prominent element in the Contact Centre is the dialler -> The importance of a good predictive dialler.One of the biggest transformations in the world of contact centres in recent decades has been the development of predictive markers. Predictive dialling has given a boost to productivity that has allowed agents spend talking only from 10-15 minutes per hour to more than 40 minutes per hour today.The main challenge has been to refine the "latency calls", ie, the time it takes the traditional predictive dialler to hear and detect that there is a customer in line before connecting the agent. Customers quickly know it is a call they don´t want to answer when they notice a silence on the call.Also, people who stay online are usually upset or irritated and respond sharply to the agents that come into the conversation late, putting them in an uncomfortable and stressful position. Besides all these short calls that end up being hung up represent an unnecessary cost.(Obviously, this does not happen with Presence Outbound Dialler)
Bur remember: The dialler “is not intelligent is only efficient”
Only this way the Contact Center will have an intelligent system that can provide value to the business and facilitate the objectives achievement.
How Knowledge is changing Customer Service
knowledge only has value when it is being used, not when it is being prepped to store:
the right information to help customers
They demand be faster and better
knowledge about the problems and solutions, and knowledge about the customers (the often forgotten part of the equation on customer satisfaction)
The answers must be searchable, easily available, and constantly and automatically updated as necessary
Run away of fuzzy metrics that cannot be replicated easily, which change frequently and which companies cannot control
We must have the answers to all their problems. All of them, not just some of them. - Maybe not that simple. You must try to have the answer to all solutions. This involves integrate the existing static knowledge with the dynamic knowledge that happens in every interaction in order to the agent can provide value to the user at the right time.
Knowledge About The Customers to establish relationships and getting to know them as better as possible.
You must find and merge information available from different sources, databases, surveys, support issues or needs reported from the different channels, or something else you can figure out about your organization to provide service proactively when a new contact happens.
The customer satisfaction starts with met expectations, and matching those to corporate knowledge is what service and support is all about
Expand knowledge by controlling the main KPIs for business: 1 -. Increase customer satisfaction -. Increase customer retention 2 -. Improve service processes and attention -. Increase Productivity 3 - Reduce operating costs Apply metrics on the operational elements that influence the service management / campaigns and influence the agents productivity.
