4. Warning Signs for your IVR
The canary in the coal mine
1. Your IVR “Zero-Out” rate is more than 7%
2. When customers reach an Agent, they’re
already frustrated!
3. The percentage of call transfers inside
your call center is excessive.
4. Your website is listed on sites instructing
callers how to zero-out
5. You don’t want to call your own call
center!

They hate BAD self-service

You’re forced to listen to long introductory
prompts.
The menu options are so long you can’t
remember which one you should have chosen
The menu options are confusing…should I choose
3…no wait..2…yes 2.
No clear navigation path. How do I go back? Let
me try *. No…that took me back to the
beginning.
Why should I enter anything in here when the first
thing you’re going to do when I connect is ask me
the information again?

Top IVR Trends and Predictions

Social Media will not replace the IVR
The demand for multi touchpoint will
increase…the two “C”s
The next generation of IVR’s will need to
emphasize self service
Voice XML will become the standard. New
IVR’s already support it, legacy ones will
support it.
IVR’s will remain a fundamental channel,
the way people interact with it may change.

7. Mobile doesn’t help the problem
•Customers are quickly frustrated with IVR systems
•IVR does not lend itself well to the “mobile mindset”
•Easier to just “zero-out” then to navigate the tree

8. Goals
» Channel more of these calls into an
effective self service offering
» When the customer calls, know more
about them and what they want
» Decrease the amount of ‘zero-outs’

9. The solution: Visual IVR
Provides an easy to use visual interface based off of your IVR,
driving the proven benefits of your IVR into the mobile and web.

13. Visual IVR Delivers a Better Experience
Visual is far more
efficient than
listening to audio
Lower numbers of
“zero-outs”
because people
will use it
Not uncommon for
introductory
prompt and menu
to be over one
minute…

15. It sounds good, but what’s the ROI?
1. Let’s model a sample company
• You can follow along by using the link
in your chat window, or just watch me
2. With any ROI model, we need to make
some assumptions
3. We give you the ability to adjust those
assumptions so that you can play “What
if” scenarios.

16. Assumptions
1. Mid sized business of around 150
agents, resulting in 60000 calls per
month.
