TCN’s Solution to Help Your Call Center Steer Clear of TCPA Penalties

For any organization’s call center, TCPA penalties can seem daunting and confusing when policies constantly change. It is critical to keep your organization compliant to avoid possible penalties and charges due to violations. TCPA guidelines apply to everyone, except to those who have tax-exempt status.

Most of the time, TCPA penalties organizations face are small errors that only require minor changes. TCN’s cloud-based features, including cell phone scrubbing and call recording, help organizations maintain TCPA compliance throughout the busy day-to-day tasks. With seamless integration, these features are adaptable for a call center of any size.

Receiving Customer Consent

Consent is the first step to a call center’s interaction with any customer. Managers must take the necessary precautions to make sure prior consent is expressed before they are contacted — keeping a record of the given consent can also protect against any future TCPA issues.

Call Recording & Transcription

Using TCN’s call recording service, managers can look at the details of every call. Did the agent use proper language? How was this customer’s issue resolved? Managers and agents can answer all of these questions and more. Working together, they are able to analyze customer interactions and identify areas for improvement. Calls that meet specific KPIs can be used for reference to help agents reach their goals.
