The challenges

What was holding the program back

The sales teams handled high daily volumes across inbound and outbound channels — but the existing delivery model was limiting conversion, inflating costs, and holding critical KPIs below target.

Sales underperformance and inconsistent KPIs

Sales underperformance and inconsistent KPIs

Sales targets were not being consistently met across the program. Conversion tracked below the 15% benchmark, and cross-sell and upsell opportunities were routinely left on the table.

The previous setup also struggled to hit critical KPIs reliably from month to month — limiting sustained performance improvement rather than compounding it.

High costs and limited geo flexibility

High operational costs and limited geo-flexibility

The existing delivery model didn’t optimize costs effectively, weighing on overall program efficiency and making every incremental sale more expensive than it needed to be.

The provider also required the flexibility to test and leverage different geographic locations for optimal sales performance — something the incumbent structure couldn’t offer.

Sequential Tech’s approach

Three pillars built around the sales metric

Every intervention was designed to move conversion, cross-sell, and cost per sale — not generic service quality in the abstract.

01
A dedicated, KPI-driven team

A specialized team of 298 FTEs was stood up exclusively for the program, with performance goals built directly on the client’s key KPIs. Every agent, coach, and supervisor was measured against conversion, cross-sell, and customer experience from day one — ensuring consistent, scalable performance.

02
Geo-optimization across locations

Operations were shifted across multiple geographies to identify and implement the best-performing locations. This geo-flexibility let the program continuously test, compare, and concentrate volume where conversion and cost efficiency were strongest.

03
Cost & experience optimization

Streamlined processes drove significant cost savings without trading away quality. In parallel, coaching focused on customer satisfaction and loyalty — lifting CSAT and NPS even as sales performance climbed.

The solutions

How every gap was closed

Every challenge had a targeted fix. Every fix had a measured outcome. Here’s the full picture across all focus areas.

Focus area Challenge Solution deployed Measured result
Sales conversion Sales targets were not being consistently met, with conversion tracking below the 15% benchmark. Dedicated team of 298 FTEs with a KPI-driven strategy built on the client’s own performance goals. Conversion rate reached 30% — doubling the 15% target.
✓ 2× target
Cross-sell / upsell Revenue per interaction lagged, with cross-sell and upsell opportunities routinely missed. Needs-based selling framework with coaching focused on bundling and account value. Achieved a 23% cross-sell/upsell ratio, exceeding the 20% target.
✓ Exceeded target
Operational cost The existing model didn’t optimize costs effectively, impacting overall efficiency. Geo-optimization plus streamlined processes across the delivery footprint. Operational costs significantly reduced while output continued to scale.
↓ Cost reduction
Call abandonment Abandonment risked eroding both sales opportunities and customer experience as volumes scaled. Capacity aligned to demand patterns with real-time intraday management. Abandonment held at a low 2.8% — well within the target threshold.

Key insights

What the data tells us

Dedicated teams tied to client KPIs move the metric faster

Dedicated teams tied to client KPIs move the metric faster

Building the 298-FTE team’s goals directly on the client’s own KPIs — rather than generic sales targets — accelerated ramp and drove conversion to double the benchmark within four months.

Geo flexibility is a performance lever not just a cost lever

Geo-flexibility is a performance lever, not just a cost lever

Testing multiple geographies didn’t just cut cost — it revealed where conversion performed best, letting the program concentrate volume in the highest-performing locations.

Sales performance and customer experience can rise together

Sales performance and customer experience can rise together

A CSAT of 94% and NPS of 52 alongside a doubled conversion target shows aggressive sales goals don’t have to erode loyalty — when customer experience is coached into the sales methodology itself.

Cross sell success follows conversation quality

Cross-sell success follows conversation quality

The 23% cross-sell/upsell ratio came from needs-based conversations, not harder pushing. Agents trained to map offers to genuine customer needs exceeded the 20% target while satisfaction climbed.

Cost efficiency compounds when processes are streamlined first

Geo-optimization delivered the headline savings, but streamlined processes made them durable — reducing cost per sale structurally rather than through one-time cuts.

The challenges

What was holding the program back

The service teams managed thousands of daily calls, emails, and messages — but structural gaps in coverage and training were limiting what the program could actually recover.

High call abandonment rates

High call abandonment rates

Abandonment was critically high during peak hours and weekends — the exact windows when collections activity is most productive. Calls dropped before agent connection, directly reducing settlement rates.

The issue was structural: service hours didn’t match demand patterns and there was no mechanism to flex capacity in real time when volumes spiked.

Training and performance gaps

Training and performance gaps

New agent cohorts required extensive ramp time for the operator’s complex account structures, billing dispute logic, and public safety network regulatory requirements. AHT ran above 4 minutes and transfer rates exceeded 20%.

Without a curriculum tied to the primary KPI, agents defaulted to transfers rather than first-contact resolution — compounding handle time and reducing throughput per shift.

Sequential Tech’s approach

Three pillars built around the collections metric

Every intervention was designed to move ORS, AHT, and transfer rate — not generic service quality in the abstract.

01
ORS-first training redesign

The training curriculum was rebuilt entirely around the primary collections metric. Agents were drilled on negotiation scripts, payment plan structures, dispute resolution authority, and account navigation — reducing time-to-competency and driving faster ORS impact from day one.

02
Extended coverage & real-time operations

Service hours were expanded into evenings and weekends to capture abandonment-heavy windows. Supervisors were given live dashboards enabling mid-shift intervention — catching metric drift during a shift rather than reviewing it the next morning.

03
Dual-center delivery model

A dual-center structure separated FirstNet (onshore, Boca Raton) from non-FirstNet (nearshore, Kingston). Each center was optimized independently for its compliance requirements and scale dynamics while operating as a unified program.

The solutions

How every gap was closed

Every challenge had a targeted fix. Every fix had a measured outcome. Here’s the full picture across all focus areas.

Focus area Challenge Solution deployed Measured result
ORS performance New agent ramp-up threatened the primary collections KPI across both consumer and public safety segment queues. Curriculum rebuilt around ORS mechanics with live dashboards for real-time supervisor intervention. Consumer segment: 135.1%. Public safety segment: 150%. Both exceeded benchmark by Q1 close.
✓ Exceeded target
Average hold time Complex queries drove AHT above 4 minutes, reducing accounts worked per shift. Rapid account navigation training, expanded tool access, and structured floor support. AHT fell from 4 min to 2.99 min — surpassing the sub-4-min target.
↓ –25% reduction
Transfer rate Excessive transfers signalled agents weren’t resolving at first contact. Transfer protocol tightened; agents given clearer resolution authority and wider tool access. Transfer rate fell from 20% to 14.45% — 28% reduction.
↓ –28% reduction
Call abandonment High abandonment during peak hours and weekends left revenue on the table. Extended service hours into evenings and weekends; capacity aligned to demand patterns. Abandonment declined. More first-attempt connections, improved satisfaction.
✓ Resolved
Staffing efficiency Misaligned schedules drove overstaffing in quiet windows and under-coverage at peaks. Real-time intraday management replaced static scheduling, flexed to call volume signals. Overtime costs reduced. Utilization improved without headcount increase.
↑ Operational gain
Compliance & scale The public safety segment required onshore delivery by contract; the consumer segment needed nearshore scalability. Dual-center model — Boca Raton onshore for the public safety segment, Kingston nearshore for consumer volumes. Both centers operating within SLA. Jamaica at 60 with an approved doubling plan. Boca Raton at 15.
✓ Compliant & scalable

What the data tells us

Training tied to the primary KPI moves the metric faster

Rebuilding the curriculum around ORS mechanics rather than general collections knowledge accelerated agent competency and directly drove Q1 attainment — outperforming programs that train generically and measure later.

Coverage gaps are a revenue problem not just a service problem

Coverage gaps are a revenue problem, not just a service problem

Extending hours into evenings and weekends recovered payment opportunities that were structurally unreachable under the prior schedule, directly contributing to ORS gains beyond agent performance alone.

Transfer rate is a proxy for agent readiness not just process

Transfer rate is a proxy for agent readiness, not just process

The 28% reduction reflected agents gaining confidence and tool access — not just tighter rules. Programs that reduce transfers through restriction alone typically see handle time rise; here, both fell simultaneously.

Dual center models require deliberate segmentation to work

Dual-center models require deliberate segmentation to work

Separating the public safety and consumer segments by delivery center allowed each to optimize independently for compliance and scale while performing as one unified program with consistent reporting.

Real time data transforms supervision into active intervention

Real-time data transforms supervision into active intervention

Live dashboards enabled mid-shift course correction rather than end-of-day review. Catching metric drift during a shift — not the next morning — was a key driver of month-on-month consistency.

Compounding monthly gains signal structural change
