The Challenge:
In 2023, approximately 20% of the company’s non-pay calls (calls that do not involve a financial transaction) were being transferred to a separate retention team as frontline agents weren’t equipped to resolve them. This created inefficiencies and missed opportunities for customer saves, directly impacting customer loyalty and revenue.
The Solution:
Starting 2024, ResultsCX implemented transformative initiatives designed to empower agents and drive rigorous operational discipline. These initiatives were scaled through 2025, enabling Tier 1 agents to fully manage non-pay calls and eliminate all retention call transfers.
- Scalable execution: Deployed 170 dedicated agents to ensure scalable consistent execution.
- Strategic partnerships: Provided product training and drove best-practice adoption in partnership with our internal Retention Account Team.
- Operational proficiency: Accelerated speed-to-proficiency via structured scripting and conducted roadshows to showcasing the attributes of a high-quality retention call.
- Continuous improvement:
- Data-driven governance: Monitored coaching engagement, supervisor development, and insights from QA reporting on a weekly basis.
