The
Challenge

Improving sales conversion and driving more revenue was the main challenge this client brought to VXI. To improve both inbound sales conversion while increasing renewals and sign ups through outbound sales required hyper-effective agent training and performance management. VXI leadership knew we needed an effective strategy to support our agents in communicating the features and benefits of a relatively unique technology.

The
Solution

VXI crafted a playbook approach that included onboarding and training using VXI Training Simulator and a performance success plan (PSP) for tenured but underperforming agents. In addition, VXI focused on employee engagement activities to improve agent morale and to address performance roadblocks in a timely manner. We also instituted regular coaching sessions with tenured agents to minimize fluctuations in performance. Operations managers and associate directors conducted random spot checks and sessions to gather agent feedback. 

Finally, for improved visibility, VXI implemented an internal tracking system to monitor sales real time and call out agents who were not meeting, or who were in danger of falling short of, their sales targets.

The
Results
