How we can help

Reducing the cost of contact takes more than moving to digital and hoping your customers will accept it. Unless you understand their motivations and know how to fulfil their needs, your cost of contact will stay high.

Applying our tried and tested Engage-to-Influence™  methodology means we’re able to help you influence your customers, improve your digital experience, and reduce contact costs significantly.

Customer Touch Point

Cutting claims contact costs for a UK insurance company

Our client’s home insurance claims department needed to reduce its average call handle time (AHT) and reduce contact costs.  

We listened to live claims calls and analysed customer feedback. Then we redesigned the claims handling process and implemented a service that assigned customers their own dedicated claims advisor they could reach through a new Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system.  

The claims reference capture in the IVR had an 85% success rate, which reduced the AHT of claims calls by over 20%. The average time to claims resolution also fell by over a week.
