Situation

Contact centers are among the most significant expenses for this supply chain and logistics company. Contact centers are also among their greatest growth opportunities. With an eye toward improving their bottom line profitability, the company turned their attention to improving contact center performance across multiple key areas, knowing that the task wouldn’t be easy.

Agent turnover was high. There was little time for training existing, tenured contact center staff members. And the opportunities showed in the data – both customer experience and agent experience scores were trending in the wrong downward.

Working with XSELL, the company quickly understood that they needed to empower and energize their agents with a flexible and supportive tool to help them be one step ahead in every unique conversational path. XSELL proved to be a solution contact center agents prefer – and that the bottom line loves.

Challenge

The company asked itself three tough – and necessary – questions:

  • Can new hire agent performance match seasoned agents – improving speed to proficiency?
  • Can we make tenured agents better?
  • Can we lower attrition?

Answering yes to even one question would positively impact this supply chain and global logistics company’s profits. Achieving two out of three? A massive success. Getting all three to happen was beyond practical expectations. Lowering attrition would be especially challenging. “The great resignation” was in full effect, with annual attrition rates of 80-85% reported across their three outsourced contact center partners. With that said? In business, you fail by setting the bar low.

Solution

XSELL was asked to implement a solution supporting agents selling business-to-business services to new and existing small business customers. The primary goal was to answer the three core questions about improving new and tenured agent performance, while lowering attrition. If possible, they also wanted XSELL’s solution to capture a larger share of wallet by positioning the company as a preferred partner over industry competitors.

Using our patented combination of machine learning, artificial intelligence algorithms, and human authenticity, XSELL detected and captured the most effective actions, tactics, and strategies used by the company’s top-performing agents. XSELL mapped these proven and successful behaviors, creating scalable roadmaps that would support new and tenured agents in real-time.

The XSELL real-time coaching solution successfully addressed all three questions, speaking volumes about its effectiveness:

  • New hire agents’ sales increased by 43% vs. prior new hire classes
  • Attrition decreased by 40%, post-XSELL deployment
  • Tenured agents’ sales improved by 33% compared to their historical performance
