Contact Strategy refers to the approach to effectively engage with customers through multiple channels or multiple numbers. It involves creating a framework to use in a Campaign for the sequence of numbers or channels, determining the retries allowed, adjusting the callable time for each number and Channel, and defining the Rescheduling strategy for each outcome of an attempt.
Contact Strategy Types
The application supports three types of contact strategy:
Simple Strategy: A simple strategy is easily configurable. This strategy allows you to configure modes to be tried one at a time in a sequential order based on the weightage. The cycle is repeated till the configured number of cycles is completed.
Advanced Strategy: An advanced strategy allows you to define complex retry rules.
Callback Strategy: A callback strategy allows the agents to set callback requested by the customer and configure various aspects as to how this callback calls are handled with respect to dialing, agents, retries, contact status, etc. Callback Strategy is not applicable for the current release.
