How can conversation intelligence benefit fintech businesses?
The powerful data in your customer conversations
Conversation intelligence platforms use AI to analyze customer interactions across multiple channels and generate go-to-market insights. Harnessing phone, video call and email touchpoints, advanced algorithms extract insights around intent, emotion, topics, common questions, and more from raw conversation data.
Conversation intelligence insights enable fintech businesses to improve revenue team performance and customer experience. It helps solve many problems unique to the complex world of finance and payments, with benefits across the business. Uncovering opportunities and market intel, the technology makes your revenue generation operations more efficient.
There are numerous ways conversation analytics can transform fintech businesses, by producing insights to ease and improve the operations of finance and payment solutions providers.
The foundation of conversation intelligence tools lies in gathering data from customer interactions across communication channels. This means integrating a solution to capture conversations from sales call recordings, emails, support tickets, and any other way customers engage with your business - at scale.
You need a tool that integrates seamlessly with your existing tech stack and gathers the data automatically. AI then processes the raw conversation data to extract key insights for teams across your business.
While standardized metrics and insights are a good benchmark, you’ll also want to be aware of methodologies, processes and practices you have trained into your team and how you can measure these with your CI tool. This is where you can add another layer of value into your chosen platform.
Conversation analytics provides objective insights into individual rep performance on every single call, by tracking things like:
Analytics can outline common topics, phrases, pain points, and more. You can see where conversations deviate from desired paths, indicating issues that require resolution either in your product, sales or marketing team. These insights improve scripts, dialogues, and customer interactions over time, to help make your business more aligned to your Ideal Customer Profile and hopefully, increase conversion rate.
Proactive alerts based on conversation analytics data can notify agents and managers about urgent issues or opportunities to better serve customers. For example, you can be alerted to spikes in competitor mentions to keep an eye on the market, or when a deal has had no activity for a certain period of time, so deal cycles aren’t dragged out any further. With a comprehensive bank of all your call recordings, you can also create Playlists of calls to share, such as best practices from your sales team, or how to handle specific objections.
To fully leverage the power of conversation intelligence, integrate the insights into your technology stack - there’s no point in insights if you can’t see them in the CRM. Conversation intelligence platforms seamlessly connect with your CRM so your single source of truth is even more comprehensive. This amplifies the value of the data. Call recordings, transcriptions and action points are pushed instantly to your CRM, eliminating admin for your reps and maximizing their selling time.
Like any AI application, the accuracy and quality of analysis evolves and improves over time, particularly when proprietary models are built, like Jiminny. The longer your conversation intelligence platform ingests data, the better it understands your customers and business needs, providing deeper and deeper insights. So when searching for a CI tool, prioritize models that continually train themselves for optimal performance.
