Few conversations about the future of the contact center downplay economic wariness – and few sectors have more cause for concern than collections.

Combining insolvencies with a rapidly increasing cost of living, potential job losses, rising interest rates, and consumer over-commitments, financially stretched households are forced to turn to credit even more. Further, without the injection of liquidity, company balance sheets burdened by existing growing debt, face an enduring risk of insolvencies and defaults. How will a potential economic downturn increase the risk of delinquency? How will it impact brands’ ability to properly resource their contact centers, and then empower those teams to collect from worried customers?

In this podcast, Craig Paterson, SVP Specialty Operations with GM Financial and Brian Cantor, Managing Director with IQPC’s Customer Management Practice division separate fact from fiction when it comes to risk levels and answer pressing questions on the future of collections in 2023, how to use technology and AI to not only survive but thrive. They will share their:

• Assessment on the present risk of payment delinquencies and what we can expect going into 2023
• Success stories and steps brands should be taking right now to maximize results and customer satisfaction
• Best practices on combining data, technology, and strategy to build the most proactive, customer-centric, and effective collections initiative, one that will excel no matter how the economic landscape evolves
• Insights on the rise of Machine Learning, Automation and AI, the demand for empathetic engagement, and the need to rethink employee experiences

Live selling and video-based content are becoming a key part of many industries. The retail industry was in the midst of transformation well before the pandemic. Customers were already craving more engaging online shopping experiences—and the pandemic only accelerated this, with an astonishing 75% of U.S. consumers trying new shopping methods in response to economic pressure, store closings, and changing priorities during the pandemic (according to McKinsey). In response to these shifting consumer preferences, live selling has emerged as a way for retailers to engage buyers in a safe, digital format that retains the human element of in-person shopping.

In recent years, analytics have evolved and become the backbone of sales programs. It’s vital to use the best tools to obtain accurate data and thus, generate ample revenue. In addition, sales data help you identify hindrances that diminish your sales rate so you can find a solution as soon as possible. In this podcast, Michael Aronowitz and Sid Mukherjee focus on how we utilize data and analytics to increase conversion rates, the role of AI in the sales domain and what we can expect in 2023.

While the Healthcare landscape has already shifted dramatically, healthcare providers have had to rapidly adapt to the fast-evolving needs of patients. Whilst the nature of healthcare delivery has transformed drastically in the last six months, the end goal for providers remains – to provide the best patient experience. To support the end-to-end patient journey, and engage with them at every touchpoint, healthcare providers are increasingly implementing a digital front-door strategy. In a metaphorical sense, the digital front door represents how healthcare organizations engage with patients from the offset – assessing needs, and advising on treatment and care.

In this podcast, Paddy Padmanabhan, CEO with Damo Consulting will share:

• Actionable insights on the future of Healthcare in the new normal
• The growing role of digital health and digital transformation in Healthcare
