Adding customer segments
Adding customer segments
Contact centers often need to differentiate service for their various markets as a result of varying customer needs, their company’s strategy for sales or service, or even customer value. The example in this section uses the Dynamic Queue Position feature to allow this company to queue calls from multiple Vector Directory Numbers (VDNs ) to a single skill, while maintaining service differentiation through the different service objectives for those VDNs. This solution simplifies administration and contact center management because it does not require the addition of skills for agents. It simplifies staffing and forecasting because only a single skill, rather than a set of skills, needs to be forecasted for the new, segmented customer base.
This solution also includes:
●Predicted Wait Time
●After Call Work (ACW) as work time
●Skill Level as the call selection method
●Expert Agent

Background information
A company that sells home security systems is entering a new market and as a result of fierce competition must make a very favorable first impression on its new customers. The contact center takes both Sales and Service calls and each type is considered equally important. In addition to impressing new customers, it must continue to serve its existing customers, some of whom are willing to wait to be served and others who will abandon if forced to wait longer than a minute.
