Nearly Three Fifths of Contact Centres Incentivise “Going the Extra Mile”

According to our poll, 59% of contact centres now incentivise “going the extra mile”, to reward advisors who do everything in their power to strengthen the customer experience.

This is now the third most incentivised behaviour in the contact centre, only behind “Customer Service” (86%) and “Quality Scores” (71%).
