  • Click Leave :r3: (you can click Resolve if the customer request got resolved)
  • Choose the reason :r4: why you are leaving the conversation
  • Switch your status in Salesforce to Offline

What customer requests do you handle?

You are focused on two sets of customer requests:

  • Chat Escalations from bot in Salted CX — You will handle chat escalations from Gropon AI chatbot. In case the bot does not know how to resolve the issue. You will handle those from Salted CX Live Conversations.
  • Emails in Salesforce — You handle emails in Salesforce as usual. Work on emails when you have no conversations waiting.

Picking Conversations

When joining conversations:

  • Make sure number of conversations in My Conversations is at most 3. Do not join more conversations if you have already 3 in My Conversations. You see the number of conversations you are participating in next to the title :r2:.
  • If you participate in two or less conversations check whether there are any conversations in Needs help section. To join a conversation click the Join button :r3:. You cannot view a conversation before joining. Handling time is measured from the moment you join the conversation.

When leaving a conversation, use the following reasons:

  • Abusive customer — our policy allows to ignore a customer due to their behavior.
  • Going for a break — you have to take a break.
  • Going home — your shift ends but the conversation is still not resolved.
  • Other reason — none of the above. Use sparingly.

Do not pick any other reasons. The reasons are used in analytics to monitor performance. If you miss a reason that you need to use, ask your Team Leader to add it.
