The solution
HGS had evolved to support this diverse client’s evolving customer demands, over voice, 24×7, in English. Today, we provide support for all card member inquiries, including membership rewards, payment and balance inquiries, and replacement cards.
Our Philippines location staffs a specialty escalation group handling calls from card members wishing to speak to a supervisor as well as assist calls from agents requiring more detailed product knowledge.
When this client’s focus shifted to driving higher on-target NPS, we turned to the data. An in-depth approach to data mining and analysis helped our team identify the key drivers of performance, allowing us to develop targeted action plans. With strategic coaching plans, we helped drive NPS results to the next level.
Performance Coaching Certification for Supervisors
The coaching path is designed to grow the leadership potential in our team leaders and managers. This program teaches good leaders to become great and get the most from their teams.
Web Central Portal
Internally developed program dashboard that houses various reports and analytics. This portal housed and allowed for easy management of the data that drove the results.
Performance Management System
Internally developed quality and customer Satisfaction dashboard through which we managed direct performance feedback and developed action plans to address agent/team-specific trends, ensuring a consistent customer experience across the program.
Advanced Speech Analytics
Leveraging advanced speech analytics against the type of inquiry, product, and specific team or agent, we were able to identify, and influence customer satisfaction, call abandonment, upsell/ cross-sell, NPS and ultimately customer experience trends. Our approach to each customer interaction became less transactional and more interactive. By using analytics and business intelligence to identify spend patterns, agents are able to ask the right probing questions, enabling them to present the right offer at the right time
We manage the entire customer lifecycle, including:
- Customer rewards
- Customer care
- Billing
- Financial and travel support
- Activations
- Retention
- Partner product support
- Cross-selling and upselling
