This live support solution is both a gateway for support inquiries and a sales support tool.</p> <p>Our open source "live help" system can provide your salesforce with personal and instantaneous contact with prospective customers. And the system operates in both active and proactive modes.</p> <p>The active mode allows you to inject interstitials (both regular pop-ups and popup-blocker-defeating layered pop-ups) into a customer session. The passive mode simply presents a "live help" button to visitors indicating that "operators are standing by." Both active and passive modes allow for a high level of customization.</p> <p>Predefined rules can automatically generate interstitials regardless of operator action. Now you can automatically provide a live chat instead of a static contact details page or plain contact form!</p> <h2>Full Customization</h2> <p><img src="/files/managecustomers/support-team.gif" hspace=10 vspace=10 align="right">Our live help system can be setup for multiple departments, operators and languages. Each department can customize the live support interface to their liking.</p> <p>For example, the returns department might want to capture the RMA number in addition to the customer's name whereas sales might want the prospective client's phone number in addition to their name. </p> <h2>Bird's-Eye View of Visitor Behavior</h2> <p>A system that works proactively would be impossible if it didn't have the ability to track a visitor's path through your website. Fortunately, our live help solution displays the full path a visitor traverses through your website. Furthermore, this pathing information also indicates time spent on the website and on each individual page.</p> <h2>Operator Management and Auditing</h2> <p>Full logging enables the call center manager to determine whether operators are responding to customer inquiries in a timely and effective manner. You can view full transcripts of each chat session regardless of length and each logged entry contains date/time and operator and customer information (if available).</p> <h3>Contact <a href="/customer_relationship_management/sales">CRM sales</a> for more information (or click on the "Live Help" button, if available).</h3> <p><br></p> Customer service and support (CSS) Tue, 14 Nov 2006 17:04:31 -0500 joseph 10 at http://www.managecustomers.com
