Listen to this latest episode of “The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money Podcast” Season 3 Episode #10. Richard Blank talks about how call centers are essential in building businesses and how this can be applied in the Wastewater Infrastructure Industry. He starts by stating that the first thing to alleviate getting unlikely experiences for a small company as well as a medium size company is that the company should do more voice support instead of non-voice support, because if you're just pressing buttons or filling out a form, it can raise temperature levels and frustration. Richard also states that it's very easy to retain a client, to get a referral and maybe even upsell.
This episode covers: ? Executing Voice Supports rather than Non-voice for Small or Medium Businesses ? The Affordable Consideration of Outsourcing your Customer Service Call Center ? Foreign Outsourcing Increases Business at 95% Literacy

Just remember one thing, that if you have people like this, you always have to extend empathy and give them their dignity. Because just like yourself, it's one of the toughest businesses that have its moments. The same thing with telemarketing as well. We want to put that in the best light. And Suzanne, thank you so much for having me on. You are the diva and I love it. Well, thank you so much, because I think with that closing remark, you're absolutely right, is that it is a tough job. And I think that that's why it's hard to find people, because often when they're getting the call, they're dealing with someone who is in crisis and having a problem.
