  7. Setting the parameters for an outbound calls campaign (2/9) • While an inbound campaign needs a queue to function correctly, an outbound campaign will need a calls file (to initiate dialling …) • Configure your campaigns from this list displaying the outbound campaigns defined in the system. • The Queue column indicates the system queue assigned to the campaign. This value is 0 if the campaign is inactive, and is the number of queues if the campaign is active. • The Campaign ID column contains the short name for the campaign. • The Type column indicates whether the campaign is basic or is part of a group of outbound campaigns called “Virtual Campaigns”. • The Status column indicates whether the campaign is active or not.

  8. Setting the parameters for an outbound calls campaign (3/9) • Create a new campaign by clicking the action button • Fill out the various criteria based on the following elements: • Type: you have the choice between creating a basic campaign (Calls Campaign) or a group of outbound campaigns (Virtual Campaign). • Enter the desired ID and the name (by default, the same thing). Next, click "OK". • Once created, the various options tabs enable access to the following information: • General: used to change the overall configuration of the selected campaign (description, calls file, screen script, etc.) • Dialling: used to define the dialling mode, the operator and other parameters. • Customer Management: used to associate a Script and qualifications, and to manage address books and sales associates’ planning in relation to the “Agenda & CRM” menu. • Opening: used to define the service’s opening hours. • Callback rules: used to change the callback rules used by the system.

  9. Setting the parameters for an outbound calls campaign (4/9) • Under the “General” tab, you can now choose: • The on-hold music that you would like • The number displayed to prospects when you call them. • You will use this tab to finalize the campaign in clicking your calls file button OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING CREATING AN OUTBOUND CALLS CAMPAIGN CREATING A SCRIPT IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE FINALIZING THE PARAMETER SETTINGS FOR A CAMPAIGN IN THE ADMINISTRATION MODULE "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE

  10. Setting the parameters for an outbound calls campaign (5/9) • Define and configure the campaign dialling mode. • To meet the various criteria, it is important to know the different types of dialling (the options under this tab very according to the mode selected) (1) • Preview: The agent first receives a “preview” of the call of his/her screen. After familiarizing him/herself with the information, he/she initiates the call. This is the mode used for the most qualitative campaigns (e.g. collection or VIP campaign). • Progressive: The system makes an automated call as soon as the agent is ready. Non-productive calls are not transferred to the agent (incorrect number, fax …). This is the classic prospection mode. • Predictive: Similar to the progressive call, but based on an algorithm which over-dials with respect to the agents logged on. The maximum abandon rate, number of lines, average duration between calls and retention time parameters enable the administrator to influence the call algorithm. This mode is used for prospection on a large file with a time limit (surveys, time-limited marketing operation) • Automated: This variant of the predictive mode makes it possible to automate calls which do not require an agent intervention. For example, it can be used to play an audio message to distribute announcements or advertising. The only parameter limiting the number of simultaneous calls is the maximum number of lines that can be used by the system. • Continued on the next slide OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING CREATING AN OUTBOUND CALLS CAMPAIGN CREATING A SCRIPT IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE FINALIZING THE PARAMETER SETTINGS FOR A CAMPAIGN IN THE ADMINISTRATION MODULE "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE

  11. Setting the parameters for an outbound calls campaign (6/9) • Fill out the various criteria under the Dialling tab based on the following elements: • Telecom operator: to define a default telecom operator for the campaign. • Call attempts: to define the number of times a call must be tried before being considered “unreachable”. • Maximum number of rings: to define the maximum number of rings that the system considers before treating the call as “no reply” and going on to the next one. Parameters to fill out based on the type of dialling: • The following parameters are only available in preview mode: • Autodialling. After [] seconds: indicates the time that the system waits before automatically dialling the phone number in preview. • By default, use the parameters of the agent workspace: if this box is checkmarked, the agent workspace parameters are used, rather than the time previously defined. • The following two parameters are for predictive and automated calls. • Maximum abandon rates: maximum number of calls abandoned before stopping the dialling. • Inter-call indicates the average wait time between two calls. • In the automated calls mode, additional fields appear: • Number of lines: maximum number of lines that the system can use. • Disconnect: makes it possible to not use a maximum number of lines. • OnNet script: used to indicate a specific IVR script used. • The next section, Answering machine detection, is for modes other than preview: • Noise detection = Voice analysis: indicates whether the voice detection system must be activated in order to detect calls taken by machines. • Driver detection = Transition detection: indicates whether the transition detection (digital-analogue) must be activated to detect transfer to a voicemail.

  12. Setting the parameters for an outbound calls campaign (7/9) • Go back to your campaign and under the “Callback rules” tab, configure the callback rules that you want to create • It is possible to create a callback rule for each of the following failure types (1) • Click Add (2) and a new tile is created in the lower portion • It is then possible to choose from among three basic callback rules: • “Callback in ….. hours” • “Do not call back before ….. hours” • “Do not call back” • If you want, you can also configure the advanced callback rules: • “If failure between … o’clock and ….. o’clock, call back on this day between …. o’clock and ….. o’clock” OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING CREATING AN OUTBOUND CALLS CAMPAIGN CREATING A SCRIPT IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE FINALIZING THE PARAMETER SETTINGS FOR A CAMPAIGN IN THE ADMINISTRATION MODULE "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE

  13. Setting the parameters for an outbound calls campaign (8/9) • Configure multiple outbound campaigns (or “Virtual Campaigns”) • The virtual campaign mode makes it possible to manage several outbound campaigns as a single campaign. This function makes it possible to pool campaigns at the end of their life in order to improve the agent’s productivity. • In creating a campaign, you have the choice between a basic campaign and a virtual campaign • Under the “General” tab, configure the campaign's general parameters • Sub-campaigns: Used to include outbound campaigns in the group (1).

  22. The basic navigation principles (4/5) • Constructing a script involves creating, organizing and setting the parameters of elements based on your needs: • Pages: These are the various screens to which the tele-consultants will have access • Objects: These are the various elements that will be present on these screens and which will enable the tele-consultants to: • Have information • Note the prospects’ answers (enriches the client file) • Move from one page to another • Etc. • Actions: these are the logical and conditional follow-on of events, created in a dedicated module called “Action Builder”, which makes it possible to animate the script: • They are connected to one or more objects and make it possible to create links between the pages, change object properties, create CTI events, etc. • For example: It is possible to route a user who answers YES to a question to another page of the script with new questions. When answering NO, the user will be routed to an end page. To do this: • Create 3 Pages: Page 1 Welcome / Page 2 Questions / Page 3 End • On page 1: • Create a YES object button associated with a YES action which moves to page 2 where you can ask questions using different types of objects • Create a NO object button associated with a NO action which moves to the end page OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING CREATING AN OUTBOUND CALLS CAMPAIGN CREATING A SCRIPT IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE FINALIZING THE PARAMETER SETTINGS FOR A CAMPAIGN IN THE ADMINISTRATION MODULE "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE
