The Importance of Ongoing Training

I’ve been thinking a lot about how crucial continuous education is for new telemarketers. It can really make a difference in how confident and effective we are on calls. For instance, I’ve seen agents who attend weekly training sessions consistently outperform those who don’t. What are some effective training methods you’ve utilized in your teams?

Totally agree on the training importance. We’ve seen success with role-playing real scenarios in pairs; it builds confidence and highlights areas for improvement. Have you tried that approach?
