Control Contact Center Load When Sending Special Offers
Promotional messages sent via SMS can often result in high conversions, especially when you offer your customers a popular product or service accompanied by a special and attractive price. Sending a lot of these messages at the same time can easily cause your site to crash when you direct customers to a landing page. But also, if you are routing customers to reach your call center, it can produce a large number of calls at the same time, while your number of call center agents is limited.
Eliminate hold times, have more efficient caller experiences without frustration or hang-ups, control the load on your call center by adjusting message sending speed, and send a smaller share of your promotional messages at a time.
