Despite being one of the oldest forms of customer support, phone calls are still the most popular tool among customers, with 76% of consumers preferring to contact a brand over the phone, according to a study by CFI Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calculate call costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Offering support over the phone may reduce customer effort but it also adds costs you might be overlooking. If you want a clear idea of \u200b\u200bhow your spending relates to productivity in your call center, the first step is to calculate the cost per call according to maestroqa and magellan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cost per call is a common call center KPI that measures how much money it costs a company to handle a single customer support call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This metric is essential to understanding the ROI of your contact center technology and the cost-effectiveness of your operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 Important Factors to Consider to Accurately Calculate Call Cost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Employee wages and benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Employees are typically the largest expense facing customer support companies. This includes the cost of hiring agents, supervisors, quality assurance managers, and managers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Human Resources Expenses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider all the expenses allocated to this important sector, which you rely on to recruit, train and hire your employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Call Center Overhead<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bulk of your overhead comes from the real estate cost of your call center, but even if your team is entirely remote, don’t forget to factor in one-time setup costs like hardware and servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Software Subscriptions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This includes flat or per-agent licensing fees for CRM software, quality assurance software, learning management systems, customer service software, data warehouses, and phone systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Total calls answered by agents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Determine the number of customer support calls your agents handled during a given period of time. You can break this number down into weekly, monthly, yearly, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n
