Welcome to the Let’s Talk's telephony features, where you can transform your district's communication experience. These features empower you to use the platform for phone lines and texting, efficiently managing incoming and outgoing calls, agent queues, and more. Below is a guide to help you set up phone numbers in Let's Talk effectively.
Phone Number Settings
With Let’s Talk, users can easily request and manage multiple phone numbers via the Numbers settings page. Here's how to get started:
Request/Create Number
- Click on "Request Number" to add your first number.
- Choose a name for the phone number, which will be displayed throughout the application.
Call Routing
Decide how the phone number will route:
- Queue: Choose which queue to route calls to.
- IVR (coming soon): Select which IVR to route calls to.
- Greeting: Determine which recording to play.
Customer Feedback Message
Select a Cx Text Message from your list of Saved Replies for gathering feedback for calls, texts, inbound, and outbound calls from this number.
Call Recording
Choose whether calls are recorded for that number or not, affecting both inbound and outbound calls.
Queue Settings
A queue is a location where you can route phone calls so calls can be assigned to the right topic and agents, and callers can have the right experience (with the right greetings). You can now configure queues separately from phone numbers to allow for more advanced call routing capabilities coming soon to Let's Talk.
Let's streamline your queue topics, assign agents, and customize other settings:
Create a Queue
- Click on "Add Queue" to create your first topic queue.
- Enter a name for the queue, which will be displayed across the application.
Queue Topic and Agents
- Assign a topic to calls in the queue.
- Select agents who will handle those calls, including both topic team members and additional agents from outside the team.
Call Priority
Toggle on the High Priority option within queue settings to have these calls answered before queues that do not have this option turned on.
To turn on High Priority for a queue please access Settings > Phone and Text > Queues > select the queue.
Tips:
- If agents are assigned multiple queues, they will be presented with calls from queues labeled as High Priority first.
- Calls in the queue management page will be ordered based on priority.
