Introduced in LobbyCentral SaaS version 5.0, Customer Polling is a new feature that can be used to gather feedback from customers.

Designed to be quick and simple, one-question polls are displayed at the end of the kiosk check-in process.   The customer is presented with a question and up to five choices.   The customer only needs to tap their choice and the process is complete.   Answers are anonymous and can be viewed within LobbyCentral.

Polls are great for getting a quick read on your customer service operation, but they don’t have to be service related.  The question can be about anything!

Here are some example questions you can use:

“Did you find our service lobby clean and inviting?”

“What free gift would you like to see in this year’s Customer Appreciation Box?”

“Please rate your check-in experience”

LobbyCentral Customer Polls are included with your subscription.   To get started with Polls, please visit this how-to-article:  https://support.lobbycentral.com/article/473-using-the-poll-feature

With the recent COVID-19 pandemic disrupting the daily lives of every human being on the planet, businesses have had to come up with alternative ways to service their customers.

All states in the U.S. are under a Stay-at-Home order which has created empty service lobbies and increased call center volume.

To help businesses reduce call hold times, LobbyCentral has added a new queue type called Virtual Callback Queues.

How it Works

A Virtual Callback queue is similar to a Lobby Walk-In queue except that the customer fills out an online form to request service.   Service representatives then work the queue in order, calling the customer back.

The customer is free to go about their daily business instead of having to hold on the phone.   The call center benefits from reduced call volume and angry customers who have had to hold for a very long time.

Businesses can publish the link to their private Callback Registration form on a website, in marketing literature, or by email.

Cost

During the COVID-19 crisis, we are making Virtual Callback Queues free to use for all LobbyCentral subscribers.   This feature has already been added to subscriber accounts and is ready to go.
