Demand for customer support continues to grow not only in size but complexity.

Employee churn isn’t new — but today’s businesses are experiencing never-before-seen attrition levels. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employee turnover rates are at near-record levels across the U.S., including retail, healthcare, and the foodservice industry.
Increased sales, larger deals, greater retention –– the benefits of offering great customer experiences (CX) are many and well documented. But significantly less research has been conducted into the relationship between customer experience and employee experience (EX) in the contact center. In short, so much time and energy are focused on the benefits of pleasing customers we forget there’s a serious upside to pleasing agents. And this is a big miss for those in CX leadership.
What is inconsistent agent performance costing your contact center each year?
Cresta’s real-time coaching provides contact center agents with versatile coaching in-the-moment. By going beyond 1:1 coaching sessions and putting coaching into action during customer conversations, teams are able to unlock new levels of productivity.
Like the call centers of yesteryear, modern customer service (CS) contact centers aren't known for being money makers for big brands. If anything, they're traditionally seen as cost centers, with a big focus placed on efficiency and cost savings. But CS leaders are challenging traditions as they continue to adapt to the pandemic rethink the contact center in the age of remote work.
Our performance gap analysis of almost 20,000 conversations from a Fortune 50 software company revealed that top performers had a 65% higher retention rate than bottom performers. And through our additional analysis of 70,000 conversations from a leading telecom company, we determined that the bottom quartile performers had 42% more churn per conversation and 48% more lost revenue per conversation. These discrepancies in our metrics represent massive opportunities for retention teams.
Unsurprisingly, these are three utterances that were completely absent from the 1.84 million customer conversations we analyzed from more than 15 contact centers to determine which swear words are most used by contact center agents.
We’ve identified a surprising gap in sales performance. We analyzed 340,000 sales conversations in Q1 2021 and discovered top performers generated $47 million in sales, compared to just $19 million by lower performers (~2.5x). So, what exactly made for such a huge gap between top and low sales performance?
In contemporary marketing, the phrase “at scale” usually means big or more. But in business, it’s becoming clear, post-pandemic, that more doesn’t always mean better.
For leaders working to bring about lasting change, the pandemic continues to exacerbate the challenges inherent to digital CX.
Only recently available at scale, conversational AI uses digital and telecommunication technologies to create a programmatic, intelligent way to converse with customers in an engaging and effective way.

Cresta was enlisted by the third-largest telecommunications company in the United States. They provide digital cable television, Internet, telephone, and smart home services to millions of customers nationwide. Their live chat sales team handles a variety of conversations, from customers looking to discover new offerings, to customers moving residences, to brand-new customers who are just setting up their services. The live chat team also operates through a business process outsourcer (BPO), which gave the telecom provider limited visibility into the live chat team's operations and performance. Without visibility, pinpointing strategies for improvement became extremely challenging. In came Cresta.
