MetricNet Delivers Presentation on Managing the Contact Center as a Business at ICMI's Contact Center Demo 2018


MCLEAN, Va., Nov. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Jeff Rumburg, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of MetricNet, presented Session 204, "A New World Order – Managing Your Contact Center as a Business!," at the Annual ICMI Demo in Las Vegas, NV. In the presentation, Mr. Rumburg presented case studies and benchmarking data that illustrate a proven approach for managing the contact center as a business. Additionally, he provided a simple methodology for measuring, quantifying, and communicating the ROI of customer care.

"When a business is not performing well, investments in the business dry up because there is no reasonable expectation of earning a profit. By contrast, businesses that are profitable receive adequate funding because they can attract investment capital seeking a positive return," said Jeff Rumburg. "For many organizations, the contact center represents an untapped opportunity to create and demonstrate economic value. When managed as a business, the true potential of customer service can be unlocked by generating and demonstrating a positive return on investment. Contact Center ROI is created in numerous ways including greater market share, positive word-of-mouth referrals, increased customer lifetime value, and higher product counts per customer - all as a direct result of the contact center!"

Those interested in this presentation can find a copy of the slide deck on MetricNet's website. Mr. Rumburg willalso present Session 501, "Turbocharge Your Metrics with Benchmarking!," on Wednesday, November 14, 2018.



Mr. Rumburg is the winner of the Ron Muns Lifetime Achievement Award, was named one of HDI's Top 25 Thought Leaders in Technical Support and Service Management for 2016 and 2017 and has served on HDI's strategic advisory board. He is co-founder and Managing Partner of MetricNet, LLC, where he is responsible for global strategy, product development, and client engagement delivery.
