Abstract:
Upon receiving an inbound call, a call management system retrieves from a customer database enterprise customer data associated with an identified customer. The customer database tracks prospects, leads, new business and purchasers of an enterprise. Enterprise customer data may include customer event data, activity event data and attributions data. The system retrieves customer demographic data associated with the identified customer. A group of agents is selected from a plurality of groups of agents based on retrieved enterprise customer data. A predictive model determines a value prediction signal for the identified customer, then classifies the identified customer into a first value group or a second value group. The system routes a customer call classified in the first value group to a first queue position, and routes a customer call classified in the second value group to a second queue position, for connection to an agent from the selected group of agents.
