      How to use Agent Panel in a Voiso Dialer outbound calling campaign.

      Introduction

      The Voiso Dialer streamlines outbound calling by automatically dialing contacts and connecting you to calls answered by a person. This eliminates the need for manual dialing, saving time and reducing mistakes. In an outbound Dialer Campaign, you use Agent Panel to join and leave campaigns, handle calls, and select wrap-up codes.

      Watch this short overview video about how to handle Dialer campaign calls, then read the rest of article for the details.

      Campaign Alerts

      Voiso provides two ways to notify you about Dialer campaigns you can or should join:

      • Broadcast messages: Your supervisor may send you a Broadcast message about upcoming campaigns or those just starting.
      • Agent Panel notifications: If you are logged in, Voiso notifies you in Agent Panel that you have been added to one or more campaigns.
