Hi Nuria,
It is not easy to respond this question in a generic way, because each type of business is different and requires specific kills, KPIs and supervision.
If we speak about KPIs, when it comes to sales I would highlight:
- # clients contacted a day
- Most important. % of effectiveness: e.g. % clients accepting offer / % clients contacted;
- Cross selling in existing customers is very important: % new products/services sold to current customers
For me there are some number of KPIs that are not relevant or, even worse, can make the productivity low. For instance.
- The # of calls taken: if the agent is given the customers to contact, this does not make sense, as it will depend on the quality of the database.
- Making the communication as short as possible: I would never recommend this old KPI. This goes against customer satisfaction and also sales. The agent has to use the time needed to close properly the deal.
But, as I said at the beginning, there is a lot of information that I miss to provide a more precise advice.
I remain at your disposal if you want to share more information.
Regards, Juan
