5 Generations in the Insurance Call Center

Would you care for a sick 20-year-old in the same way you would care for a sick 80-year-old? The answer seems obvious, and yet five unique generations interact with contact centers every day, while enterprise brands continue to rely on one-size-fits-all customer care strategies. Today’s insurance contact centers serve Gen Z, Millennials, Baby Boomers, and the Silent Generation.

The Workforce Management Maturity Model: From Reactive Scheduling to Strategic Workforce Planning

Organizations don't become reactive overnight. They become reactive when Workforce Management (WFM) is viewed as a scheduling function instead of a strategic business capability.

Every revenue conversation in lead generation eventually comes back to two numbers: how many leads came in and what they cost. Those are the wrong starting questions. The right one is simpler and harder: do these leads close?

What Is Predictive Modeling and How Does It Change Lead Generation Results?

Many organizations have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on a lead generation campaign only to find that a significant portion of the people who received it were unlikely to respond. The campaign launches, response rates fall short, and the natural reaction is to spend more, mail more, and reach more people. But the real problem usually isn't reach, it's targeting.
