I’m excited to announce our new FREE forecasting tool for any company using Zendesk. With Support Forecaster, get the following data monthly:
- Expected inbound tickets and outbound responses per month for the next 12 months.
- Headcount, agent efficiency, inbound and public responses for the previous 12 months.
- Recommended headcount for the next 12 months
Get a handy graph and CSV output that looks like the following:
How it works:
- Our system pulls in your monthly help desk data
- Our system normalizes this data by month
- We forecast future monthly inbound volume based on monthly growth rates from the previous 12 months
- We estimate outbound volume and agent efficiency based on the previous 12 months
- Your data and forecast updates monthly
Some use cases:
- Estimate inbound ticket volume for Black Friday sales or holiday periods
- Identify monthly trends for inbound volume
- Identify when your agents are most/least efficient (and why)
- Identify a realistic output per agent number
- Identify hiring needs for the next 12 months
