AWT  (Average Waiting Time)
The average waiting time is the time it takes before a call is answered. Some answering services and call centers have horrendous AWT, while others are able to meet minimums or surpass expectations. Our own company, the Successful Office Group judges it's csr's by their hold time and AWT. All is computed and when it comes time for review and compliance, employees must be able to meet the firm minimums.

Cut Costs to Increase Profit!

What do you think is easier to do ... reduce your expenses by 2% or double your sales? I think most would agree that reducing expenses might be easier. Why, then, do most business owners spend little time on attempting to reduce expenses? Consider this: Your current profit margin is 2% - if you reduce costs by 2% your profits double! Of course, you can do the same thing by merely DOUBLING your sales! Right.  see Cut Costs to Increase Profit
