This is part 4 of the How to run a dialer campaign use case.
Agents in your campaign
This article provides an overview of the agent experience in a Voiso outbound Dialer Campaign. Agent Panel provides all the tools that an agent requires to handle campaign calls, select wrap-up codes, and join or leave campaigns.
How agents are notified about campaigns
Voiso offers two methods to notify agents about campaigns they can or should join:
- Broadcast messages: Use Broadcast messages to send targeted notifications to specific teams about upcoming or ongoing campaigns. This ensures that agents are informed and ready to participate.
- Agent Panel notifications: When a campaign is started, logged-in agents automatically receive notifications in the Agent Panel. These alerts inform them about their assignment to one or more campaigns.
Joining a Dialer campaign
Agents join campaigns directly through Agent Panel. After they sign-in, open Agent Panel, and are ready to start handling campaign calls, they should follow these simple steps:
- Click the Dialer campaign icon in Agent Panel to open the Dialer campaign page.
- From the Dialer campaign page, select the name of the campaign they want to join.
- Campaign calls are automatically routed to them.

Agent Panel call controls
While handling campaign calls, agents have access to a complete set of call controls through the Call screen in Agent Panel. These controls enable them to efficiently manage calls and provide seamless service.
Feature | Description | |
---|---|---|
1 | Contact information | The name or ID of the contact and their phone number, along with the elapsed time of the call. |
2 | Call controls | Buttons enabling you to manage the call. |
Hold | Place the call on hold so that you and the contact cannot hear one another. For some features such as Consultation, the call is placed on hold automatically. | |
Blind transfer | Immediately transfer to a number you dial a call without knowing if the call will be answered. | |
Keypad | Enter numbers using the dial pad to send DTMF. This is commonly used to navigate phone system menus. | |
Mute | Mute your microphone so that the contact cannot hear you. | |
Consultation | Speak to another employee about a contact’s case, without the contact hearing the conversation, and transfer the call when necessary. | |
Conference | Invite another party to join an active call, enabling all parties to hear and speak to one another. | |
Record | Start, pause, and stop recording a call (this feature is not available in all contact centers). | |
SMS | Send an SMS to the contact during the call. | |
Notes | Add notes about a call during a call or during after call work. Call notes are saved in the call history. | |
3 | End | Button to hang up the call |
4 | Volume control | Call volume control for your headset. Click it to mute the caller. Hover your mouse pointer to display the volume control slider. |
5 | CID | The Caller ID (CID) that is displayed to the contact on their phone |
6 | Status | Your current availability status and how long you have been in that status. When you are on an outgoing call, your status is Outbound. |
7 | Status menu | You cannot change your status while you are handling a call |
At the conclusion of each call, agents select a wrap-up code that reflects the outcome of the interaction. Ensure that the wrap-up codes you configure align with your campaign objectives and provide meaningful insights for reporting.
