OPEN-ENDED TPV

This is basically our Verbal Contracts Service that uses our Virtual Phone Recording System. In this scenario the sales agents will do most of the talking. In many cases reading a telemarketing call script on a piece of paper in front of them.


PRE-SCRIPTED TPV (automated Q&A session)

An automated attendant will walk the caller through a series of pre-scripted questions and collect recorded or touch tone answers. Next, Norbell will append a Time and Date stamp and issue a unique confirmation number. We would then email the entire verification to any email address you choose. We can also record long phone conversations that allow the sales agents to do most of the talking.
