Market Trends
It is universally accepted that most online
shoppers prefer human interaction for help or information. Consumers
comfort level with "online merchandising" as an alternative
to brick and mortar products and services is reflected in the
fact that every year gross revenue from online sales and services
has increased. Amidst these increases is the reality that an
estimated two-thirds of online shoppers "abandon" their shopping
carts before buying simply because they cannot find easy answers
or get the "human touch" from the content contained on the merchants
Web sites.
ILT's response to consumers demand for
direct live customer service is our "Web based" call center.
Its enhanced real time retail support reduces the largest
problem online retailers face; the high web activity versus
purchase ratio. Our web based call center converts prospects
into customers by providing a live, educated voice that solve
problems and build a strong case to support a purchase.
Similarly, real-time interaction brings
cross-sell and up-sell opportunities. By introducing Web site
visitors to products and services they might not have been
aware of, you potentially increase the size of the average
sale. Our web based call center can build an individual profile
of the customer and provide a continuing future stream of
valuable information about the customer's interest and preferences.
This approach builds customer loyalty and develops lifetime
value.

Features
Customizable and Flexible
InterLinear Technology' Next Generation
Web-Based Call Center features a configurable architecture
built to meet the client's customized needs quickly. It's
flexibility makes it compatible with most PBX's and unPBX
solutions providing a total solution for Inbound and Outbound
centers.
Scalability and Reliability
Our system is highly scalable and powered
by technology embedded within our content & communications
middleware. Our AECOS platform integrates disparate or legacy
systems thus maximizing previous hardware investments. It
is accessible via any Internet-enabled platform or by other
communication devices such as Phone, Fax, PDA, and I-Mode
Phones.
Easy to Use Interface
Our Web Based Call Center features a very
intuitive User Interface to facilitate rapid and easy mastery,
alleviating the costs and time associated with lengthy training
sessions.
Scheduled Message Delivery
Our system empowers flexible message delivery
to maximize customer convenience and response. Messages may
be delivered in a variety of formats: Phone, Fax, Email, Cellular,
Pager or any multi-media communication device. This gives
our clients the ability to adopt a "Follow Me" philosophy,
guaranteeing critical follow up and in essence emulating a
"virtual call center". This is important because it ensures
high return on our client's sales facilitation investment.
Automated Call-Back
Our WBCC in addition, facilitates live
conversations with sales agents initiated by the customer
clicking on a "call-me-back" icon embedded in the website.
This link allows the customer, after inputing their phone
number, to indicate a call back immediately or at a more convenient
time. The customer then receives a call which connects to
a live agent who may be on a phone or VoIP-client. In the
call-me-back model, neither the customer nor the agent are
forced to wait, maximizing agent efficiency and customer care.
ACD (Automated Call Distribution) is enabled for the sake
of familiarity and customer choice.
Universal Queue: Our Universal Queue
technology is tailored to match incoming requests and with
agents specifically based areas of expertise. The request
may be made from web or phone, email or fax. The universal
queue takes an available agent and a customer callback request,
distribues them in groups that match and once they are matched
the queue dissipates. Correspondingly, if no match occurs
the queue accumulates. This technology allows for staff specialization
to accommodate the clients individual needs.
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)
Through the use of a headphone and microphone
attached to a computer, the customer initiates an IP telephone
call to selected call center. Information about the caller
is conveyed to the customer service representative to enhance
processing. The calls conveyed over the Internet represent
a tremendous savings over the cost associated with public
switched telephone network (PSTN) voice traffic.
Real-time interaction with customer builds
locality and trust; the hallmarks of a long term retail or
service provider relationship with consumers. Customer service
representatives both obtain and document information about
the customer's needs and interests that serve to facilitate
future sales and overcome traditional sales objections. From
the customer point of view, their request travels over a seamless
and invisible conduit between a PSTN and VoIP web enabled
network for information and call back abilities. Our multimedia
convergent technology allows us to respond via email, fax
or call via PSTN or VoIP, enabling the customer to effortlessly
participate in cutting edge communication technology without
doing anything more than a point and click.
Monitoring and Statistics
The application can perform monitoring
tasks such as agent statistics, inbound and outbound queues
and traffic. A LAN application is used to report Qlog statistics,
current queue status, agent load etc. Qlog gets its data from
the database and presents it graphically according to a list
of selections. The analyzer performs ongoing analysis of this
raw data. It also performs alerts of threshold behaviors to
managers such as system wide queue backup, agent deficit and
so on.
