Training | Documentation | Call-Center
Tell me if this sounds familiar... You were hired/promoted to be a call center supervisor or manager and handed a bunch of spreadsheets or PDFs with your protocols and procedures on them. You didn't create them, but you're now responsible for keeping them up to date. Or maybe you're in this boat... You were hired/promoted to be a call center supervisor or manager and had NOTHING to work with. Nobody had documented anything before you got there. So you opened up Visio, Word, or Excel and started documenting processes and procedures hoping that you could use them to train your reps.
If you've downloaded the workbook to begin capturing your processes, you may be wondering, "How am I supposed to fill this thing out?" To help you out, here's a 5-minute video that walks you through the steps of getting your knowledge out of your head and into a guide.

During the first five minutes of any software trial, you have to make one decision: Should I invest more time learning about this software or should I move on to something else? When you start your ScreenSteps trial, it's no different. You need to decide if ScreenSteps is something you should dedicate more time to learning about and whether you should use it in your organization. To help you make that decision, I recommend starting off doing five things.

When you begin authoring in ScreenSteps, you'll notice that the editor looks a little different than what you see in Word or Google Docs. In this video, I'll show you the basic ScreenSteps editor and how it will help you create better guides for your employees and your customers.
Customer Support | Documentation
Customer satisfaction is a major goal for every business, and customer support is the foundation of that goal. But without adequate support, customer service can turn into a frustrating experience where your team is constantly putting out fires or wasting their time answering the same low-level questions. So what does it mean to have effective customer service? And where does a customer support manual come into the picture? At its simplest, a customer support manual is a set of resources provided to your customers to help them self-service basic support questions. It's built for an audience of customers, and its purpose is to decrease support requests by enabling customers to solve low-level support issues themselves.
Six months ago, the ScreenSteps team received several support tickets for setting up Single Sign-on (SSO). These tickets required phone calls or lengthy back-and-forth emails before finally being resolved. Now, we love helping our customers, but our team was frustrated that our self-help documentation was falling short for this particular operation. Admittedly, SSO can get a tad complicated—even I shuddered a little when I had to get involved with SSO troubleshooting—but isn't the point of self-help documentation that customers can perform tasks on their own without involving support? Even though we had very detailed help articles for setting up SSO, apparently those articles weren’t very helpful to the majority of customers who were setting up Single Sign-on. What was going on?
