Sales and Customer Service Training for Call Centres Reviews:

"The day passed without noticing the time, never found myself drifting away and Anne was great all day I could have sat in a training session for three days, Excellent job! :)

"Troy was flexible and enthusiastic. He delivered the content so that it was relevant and practical to our business. We are all motivated to start implementing these new strategies. The training was fantastic although now I will be very busy implementing it all. :)"

"Anne was a very engaging trainer and the content was interesting but the quality of the course could be enhanced by spending more time on applying the knowledge that we were taught into practical situations."

"Anne is very approachable and friendly and a well of information. I really enjoyed her style of humour and teaching! I enjoyed most watching my team "unravel" - there was a lot of apprehension prior to the session that their scores reflected who they are as people and I noticed some negative feelings and whispers before we had even begun. It was great to see the arms unfold due to Anne's excellent teachings and watch them gradually relax and be totally won over/captivated. I also loved learning about my peers styles and better ways to integrate/understand and collaborate with them! Anne is an asset to your organisation. Thank you Anne - Legend!!"

"I found the most useful section of the course the use of words to use and words not to use. Ann was very engaging and made the training very interesting and had a good sense of humour."

"The course was very informative I learnt some new techniques and had fun doing it"

"Karin has done and excellent job tailoring the course content to suit our needs. We would definitely request her for future training sessions as her understanding of our roles and business increases with each session."

Foreword:

Whether we choose to embrace them or cannot stand being interrupted by their calls, call centres are a business element that is here to stay. The key is to train your staff to exceed customers expectations and create raving fans every time you engage with them.

This course will help call centre agents learn to make the most of their telephone-based work, including understanding the best ways to listen and be heard. Each phone interaction has elements of sales and customer service skills, which we will explore in detail throughout this energising and practical three-day workshop.

Note that we will use two acronyms interchangeably throughout the workshop:

CSR: Customer Service Representative
CCA: Call Centre Agent

In-House Training We’ll focus on what matters most to you and tailor to your context

Live Online or Hybrid Class Tailored to Your Needs

When you want a tailored learning experience targeting exactly what you want without bringing everyone physically together, the best choice is a Live Online Class run by PDT.

We tailor the content and activities to be specific to your current needs and the needs of the people and run the course in our usual activity-based workshop style training, however, the participants can all be offsite, or some can be in the room with others offsite.

Unless you have a preferred tools we use 'Zoom for Education' that includes enhanced collaboration features such as One-click content sharing, real-time co-annotation (people can work together in activity files), and digital whiteboarding, we also include things like live polls and group chats so you virtually have the same collaborative learning experience of attending a course in a room with other people.

We have delivered these 100's (if not 1000's) of times, and get great outcomes. We achieve great outcomes because we keep our learner centric approach - just because it’s delivered through a screen to some or all participants doesn’t mean it needs to be less tailored or less personalised.

You still have an expert trainer who talks to you prior to the session and tailors the delivery to use your terminology, ensure activities are relevant and directly applicable and ensures an engaging learning experience that provide people with skills and techniques they can apply the very next day.

A hybrid class is with some people dialling in, and some people physically together in the same room.
