Sharing knowledge and experience for over 19 years

Dear, Call Center Manager

It’s that time again! Plan to join us Monday, September 20 through Wednesday, September 22, 2010 for the AVAYA Predictive Dialer User Group Training Summit & Vendor Expo, being held at the Suncoast Hotel & Casino in exciting Las Vegas, Nevada.This year we have continued the focus on dialer productivity, utilization, reporting mixed with a host of ancillary product offerings and opportunities.The summit will feature “how to” sessions on some of the more advanced uses of your equipment. We have also included self-help sessions such as project management.Meet new key vendor partners offering award-winning solutions to make your call center even more successful.We hope you will invest your time to get the most out of your system to increase your customer contacts effectively and efficiently.Here are just a few of the highlights to help get you there-

Call Center Idol:

We all know that no two call centers are alike and many users are able to overcome challenges by some time utilizing the PDS in ways it was never intended to be used. This will be an open discussion session for users to share those ideas. At the end of the session, the audience will vote on the most significant deployment in PDS utilization. In 2009 it was SWBC and this year it could be you! The 2010 winner will receive a digital SLR Camera!
