Episode notes
Incentivize CSRs Like Sales Reps
- Treat CSRs as salespeople and incentivize booking performance with commissions or weekly rewards. Try $10–$20 per booked call or small weekly prizes tied to rubric scores.
Manage CSR Talk-Time
- Limit CSR talk-time to avoid burnout and keep quality high; target 35–40% of shift on calls. Avoid exceeding 50% talk-time to prevent fatigue and declining empathy.
