What are some of the best technology solutions for building a cloud call center with at least 20 work from home agents?

I'm currently advising a client right on exactly that kind of customer service integration. Look into Live Ninja (https://liveninja.com/). It brings together the best of both worlds from web and a call center. Voice + Video + Instant connect without any special software, or a phone. You can have either one way, or two way video, and text chat too. Obviously, get nice uniforms for your call center guys if you haven't already.

Hello! I want to ensure that I understand the question. Are agents having to call customers back in order to resolve their issues or concerns? If so, I would ask how well-versed are the agents in the business/product? Do you have a knowledge base or ongoing training to help the agents to stay on top of the changes in questions that are being asked and how to resolve certain issues? I'd love some more information about the timing and reasons behind the timing to make a better recommendation.

I have a membership site with video training that companies use to train their salesforces. Having set up many paid and commission-based sales teams over the years, here are the main issues: > the less effort you put in at the beginning, the more turnover you're going to experience > if you don't have consistent training, the process, impression and market presence of your salespeople will be all over the place and give you a poor reputation > without a recorded (written, video) training program in place, your time as a manager and executive will be tied up by stupid questions repeatedly asked by different employees. May sound like a small thing, but this time adds up quickly. "When do we take breaks?" over and over again turns into a real annoyance and time waster. Leave your hiring, training and assessment sloppy results in sloppy market presence and execution.

I thought questions was for ... questions...sure I'll send an email when I have time.
