S1 Ep. 4 Build better long-term relationships with outbound engagement

In this episode of Tech Talks in 20, outbound engagement experts Rian Logan and Chad McCormick dive into how outbound engagement powers outreach and customer experience. You’ll leave with knowledge and resources to get started now.

S1 Ep. 3 Harnessing a new level of control with the Genesys Cloud solution

Now you can get the visibility you’re accustomed to with the benefits of a cloud contact center.
