Your business phone isn't only about receiving and handling incoming calls with professionalism and efficiency. Making outbound calls is an important part of doing business for any industry, and can make the difference between a passive agent and agent that can really get things done. Voicent PBX allows all agents to make follow up calls and use shared PBX lines to dial any phone number, hands-free.
Making outbound calls with Voicent PBX eliminates the need for hand-dialing on a hardphone. When searching the built-in CRM in the Agent Dashboard™, agents can click on any phone number associated with the record to automatically dial the number.
Inside the Agent Dashboard™, scheduling follow ups is easy as 1-2-3. When the agent logs into the account or when the time to make the call comes, a reminder automatically pops up to remind the agent.
Agents can make outbound calls on shared PBX lines instead of purchasing separate phone lines.
Before making an outbound call for follow ups, agents can search for the phone number in the CRM to prepare for the call.
With the dialpad on the side of the Agent Dashboard™, agents can type in any phone number to call instantly. The only hardware required is a headset and a regular computer to run the Agent Dashboard™ software on.
For marketing and sales campaigns, you can use Voicent dialer software to make outbound calls on your business phone system. Voicent dialer software is seamlessly integrated with the Voicent PBX system, so you can use the same phone service and system for sales, marketing, and customer service.
Missed calls are displayed in red text in the call log when agents first log in to the Agent Dashboard™ along with the caller ID. With Voicent PBX, agents don't have to wait for people to call back and can simply click on the missed call to dial the number.
