StubHub Chooses Integrify OnDemand for Call Center Processes
StubHub Chooses Integrify OnDemand for Call Center Processes
Chicago, IL — November 13, 2006
Integrify Software, Inc., a leading provider of web-based enterprise request management software, announced that StubHub, Inc, a live event resale marketplace, has chosen the Integrify OnDemand 4.0 solution to automate aspects of key customer-focused processes in its Call Center. The new system will provide Call Center employees faster access to customer status information than in the past.
“Integrify OnDemand will allow us to provide our Call Center with faster processing and visibility to select back-office functions and to better service customer orders,” said Rosalind Kimble, Program Manager, Business Operations. “We’re constantly improving our operations and we chose Integrify to help improve service to our customers.”
According to Kimble, one of Integrify OnDemand’s most important features is that it is a hosted solution, and out of all the hosted solutions they evaluated, Integrify offered the best feature set for customization in StubHub’s business environment.
Integrify increases productivity because agents can access customer information and process select aspects of transactions faster. With the OnDemand solution, companies get users automated almost immediately because it’s an on-line solution that requires very little set-up time.
The system currently has ten test users, but after its rollout to StubHub’s call center, Integrify will be utilized by more than 100 employees.
Integrify is a flexible Enterprise Request Management (ERM) system that allows companies to automate requests and streamline processes. The software provides form creation, routing definition and tracking tools to those responsible for processing requests, minimizing data entry and simplifying requests for approval and fulfillment. Integrify is web-based, allowing for easy user accessibility and management of business processes. The solution eliminates problems typically related to labor-intensive processes such as manual paper handling and email requests, and can reduce costs per transaction 60 to 90 percent as opposed to paper-based processes.
The Integrify OnDemand solution provides the full functionality of Integrify via the Internet without the need to install and maintain software. It reduces the risk, cost and time when implementing a solution for process management. Instead of installing the software on its own site, a company can directly access the software, updates, and infrastructure, which are all maintained by Integrify, freeing up time and resources to focus on business.
Integrify 4.0, released in June, offers increased flexibility in process management, including enhanced forms management, more accessible reporting, easier-to-manage user interfaces and improved security, integration and system administration features.

Knowlagent Recently Hosted a Webinar on How to Select the Right Agents for your At-home Program
Knowlagent Recently Hosted a Webinar on How to Select the Right Agents for your At-home Program
Alpharetta, GA — April 18, 2010
Knowlagent, the leader in call center talent management software solutions, recently held a webinar and announced the results of its recent At-home Agent Hiring survey. The survey, conducted with inContact, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand call center software and agent optimization tools, found that the number of companies using at-home agents has increased almost 10% in the past year.
According to those surveyed, the increase in at-home programs can be attributed to several factors including overall cost effectiveness – an at-home agent typically costs a company $ 23/hour compared to the $ 27/hour it costs to employ a U.S.-based brick and mortar agent. Additionally, sales conversions tend to be higher with at-home agents (30% compared to 23% with brick and mortar agents), as well as revenue per hour ($ 178.20 vs. $ 149.27 with traditional in-center agents).
Of those companies surveyed, 73% of at-home agents are existing in-center agents who have been moved home as opposed to new hires, hired specifically to work from home. The majority – almost 80% – of these at-home agents are full-time employees. By far, the most important quality/requirement for at-home agents, according to the survey, is the ability to work independently. Other important qualities include strong problem-solving skills and a dedicated workspace.
Most of those surveyed – some 66% – said they use the same recruiting tactics for recruiting at-home agents as they do for in-center agents. Those tactics include phone-only interviews, special referral programs, and posting job opportunities in areas without brick and mortar centers. Only 56% said newly hired at-home agents are brought into a center for part of the onboarding process and 78% said that at-home agents are not compensated differently than in-center agents.
Of those surveyed, 57% said that supervisor-to-agent ratio is the same as it is in the center and 65% said attrition is lower with at-home agents than with traditional agents.
The momentum for at-home agent programs is building, but finding the right talent for these programs is key to their success.
Michele Rowan, former vice president of performance management for Hilton Hotels and current president of Customer Contact Strategies, has placed more than 1,000 at-home agents in both the U.S. and abroad. According to Rowan, there is a specific profile that makes for a successful at-home agent.
At-home agents tend to be a little older – the average age is 38 compared to 23 in a traditional brick and mortar center – and they are typically more educated. Almost 80% of at-home agents have college-level experience, 40% have management experience, and 30% are bilingual compared to traditional agents of which only 30% typically have some college-level experience.
“The best at-home agents tend to be stay at home parents, disabled individuals, retirees, senior citizens, graduate students, military spouses and permanent part-time professionals such as writers, artists and sports enthusiasts,” said Rowan. “Flexible work schedules are attractive to these groups and part-time schedules can expand/retract based on your business needs.”
When moving traditional agents home, expect challenges, Rowan says.
“Agents will need time to adjust to different technologies, a new social dynamic, and the challenges of time management, focus and initiative required to effectively work from home,” she said. “To find the best agents, ask targeted questions in the interview process about the applicant’s knowledge, skills and abilities to determine if they are a good fit with your company and the job.”

HOT FLASHES:What causes them and What to Do
Probably, the Big Mama Menopause Symptom, Hot Flashes come in Different Styles. We’ll look at a few types. Note the Differences in:
How Intense?
How Often?
Night or Day?
Sweating or Not?
Sally, has Heat Flushing up from her Chest, up her throat,to her Cheeks,that become Bright Red. She feels like an uncomfortable Furnace for a minute or so and then it fades out. It happens a few times a day, especially in the afternoon. Sally sleeps Well at night. No sweating involved.
Jane is OK during the Day, but wakes up every few hours throughout the night…
Boiling Hot and Sweating Profusely…Throws the covers off…and may even experience palpitations, feeling Wired and Jittery. Thirsty,too.
Sandra isn’t bothered so much by Heat. It’s the Sweat pouring out like a faucet that’s so uncomfortable and embarrassing. Day is worse. Sandra feels fatigued most of the time.
Amy wonders if the slight sudden warmth she feels once in a while is a Menopause Symptom.
All of these Women are having Hot Flashes. Right? But each one is having such a different experience. These differences are significant in Alternative Medicine Systems like TCM and Ayurveda. In fact, the style of the HotFlash or other menopause symptom, gives many clues as to What is causing it. and…even What to do about it!
There are a lot of things that can help.
One of the first is make sure you are DRINKING enough…fluids. That means water, juice, herb teas, etc. That means at least Two liters a day. Many women tell me they don’t drink at all after their morning coffee.
But First, a brief “Western” Bio-Chem Interlude…
Hot Flashes are considered a Specific symptom of EstrogenDeficiency . Not enough Estrogen makes you Hot and Sweaty. Here’s How it happens…
If a Woman’s Estrogen levels are Too Low for her body’s needs, the Brain will pick up on it.
The Hypothalamus, in the Brain with it’s many Amazing Functions, is the Supply and Demand Processing-center of the Body.
It sends a messenger called GRH (Gonadatrophin Release Hormone)to the Pituitary. This Master Hormone-Producing Gland (located in back of your eyes) then starts to produce FSH. (Follicle Stimulating Hormone). This is a Message to the Ovaries.
…”More Estrogen Please!”
If the Ovaries Respond and Produce more Estrogen, Fine. If not the Message gets Stronger,More GRH, More FSH,More FSH, More FSH. and still no Ovary response.
Usually, the FSH level needed for Ovulation is around 20. Menopause FSH levels can easily be 100 or more.
So, What causes the Hot Flashes?
OK, here it comes… The Hypothalamus,busy sending all these messages, is part of the LIMBIC System. That part of the Brain is also in charge of Autonomic (that means it happens by itself)Temperature regulation, Sweating and many other Vascular Stress responses.
Like when you’re Stressed…
You can feel Flushed, a knot-in-your-stomache, Sweating, Heart Pounding,Wired, even Pupils Dilate…
Welcome to your Limbic System!
It’s the Hyperstimulation-no response situation that Stresses out the Hypothalamus. That triggers the Hot Flashes. Its a Red Alert from a Stressed-Out Brain!
…Like a Hungry Baby not getting Fed. Poor Baby Screams but no Food appears! So he Screams Louder!
The less Estrogen, the bigger the Hot Flash. Thats why,Hormone Replacement of Estrogen, although dangerous in the long run, stops the Hot Flashes ,calming everything down.
Western European Herbal Medicine uses “Plant-Estrogens” or Phyto-Estrogens to Relieve Hot Flashes. Research has Proven this Successful.
Plant Estrogens, or Phyto-Estrogens are gaining popularity. These are Plants whose structure is similiar enough to Estrogen, to bind to Human Estrogen Receptor Sites.
Although these plants are 200-400 times weaker than actual hormones, there is often significant Menopause Symptom relief, reported. Common Estrogenic Plants of this sort are Black Cohosh , Red Clover,Suma, Sage, and Soy. These Phyto-Estrogens are often combined in formulas and sold commercially.
Soy is well known as a PhytoEstrogen, BUT TOO MUCH can Slow Down Thyroid Function!! DO NOT take large amounts of Concentrated Soy Alone as the Main Source of your PhytoEstogens.

Fondling Our Minds With Celebrity Endorsements
As it turns out major celebrities can get acne also, because Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan, and P-Diddy have all endorsed Proactiv Solution and they all swear that it rescued them for the misery of their acne infection. They all even have graphic pictures of their faces and foreheads covered with acne pimples that they have shown on national television.
Proactiv Solution was developed by to leading dermatologists that themselves had acne and were frustrated with the acne remedies that were currently on the market. Benzoil peroxide is the main active ingredient in most acne remedies, but because it is a powerful chemical it has some harsh side effects that leave the skin dry, red and cracked and unable to protect itself from acne infection the way it is supposed to do.
What acne sufferers want is for their acne to be gone and their skin back the way bit was before the acne got started and Proactiv Solution is the only acne treatment on the market that actually accomplishes that. Unlike all the other acne treatments Proactiv Solution treats the skin and undoes the side effects of the benzoil peroxide as well as eliminates the acne problem.
It’s a three step treatment process and the first step is Proactive Renewing Cleanser that sterilizes and clears the skin of dead cells and opens clogged pores. The Revitalizing Cleanser also contains benzoil peroxide and it enters the pores in this step and kills the acne causing bacteria.
Nearly every planner I work with contemplates having a big name for their event or broadcasters endorsements, but it’s not quite as simple as picking a name out and scheduling the date. Celebrities can add a great deal to your event, but they also mean a great deal more work.
Speaker Fees. There’s really no way around this one. Big celebrity names cost big money. For meeting planners and business speakers used to hiring non-celebrity speakers, the sticker shock can be extreme. Many well known authors, actors, musicians, inspirational business executives and other well-known entertainers have speaking and appearance fees that can climb well into the six figures and beyond.
Event Contracts and Offers. The rule of thumb here is to expect contracts to be long, and insist on as much detail as possible. Whether it’s travel, fees and due dates or even the rider, make sure you know precisely what will be required of you, and what you’re getting for your money.
Contract Riders. While the stories of extreme diva acts are usually overblown (“I said I wanted only lavender M&M’s!”), it is true that some http://www.brooksinternational.com/Celebrity_4.htm speakers have very stringent requirements about what they need in order to perform at your event. Most of their demands will center around clean rooms, meal choices and hotel options, but read every item carefully. An ounce of preparation goes a long way towards keeping your celebrity happy and your event successful.
If your event will be promoted in any way, all media and content will usually need to be approved by the entertainer themselves. There are a lot of reasons for this, but mainly it’s to prevent false or private information about a public personality from being released.
Cancellations. I like to remind my clients that an event with a marquis name personality is never final until they step onto the stage. Production problems, competing contractual responsibilities and travel logistics can all interfere at any stage of the game. Keep in mind that most celebrities will have out-clauses in their contracts that allow them to cancel an engagement without lengthy notice if they need to fulfill another obligation (movie role, state dinner, etc.)
