  • Patent number: 10594864
    Abstract: A system and method are presented for advanced campaign management in outbound dialing platforms. In a contact center environment, a dialing campaign may be configured such that the outbound dialing platform modifies its behavior automatically throughout the dialing campaign as conditions change. Dialing campaigns may be constructed from groups, which are organized into a campaign sequence. As the campaign sequence flows between groups, details of the campaign may be monitored and evaluated by the platform. Group transitions may be initiated based on activation triggers. In an embodiment, campaign sequences may also be automatically transitioned to new campaign sequences, paused, or reset based on activation triggers. A transition may also be initiated by manual override of the platform.

  • Publication number: 20130329880
    Abstract: A method and system for increasing call yield and the productivity of agents in an environment such as a contact or call center, for example, is described. Attributes may be used to classify calls and contact information. A system may learn from collected data. Calculations may be performed to aid in forecasting such as probabilities, call yield, and expected call handle time. Such calculations may be used to determine the best time to call a contact to achieve a desired result.
