## Title
Systems and methods for click-to-callback

## Abstract

Click-to-callback provides an icon or link on a webpage that a user can select or click on. When the icon or link is clicked or otherwise selected, the user is provided with a list of his phone numbers to choose from, or a blank field to enter an alternate number, for an immediate return call from a representative of the entity (e.g., the company) associated with the webpage. When this request is submitted, the representative desirably calls the user back immediately (e.g., within about 10 seconds) to provide assistance. Thus, the user remains on the website, and gets the help he desires to continue on the website, which may, for example, lead to the user making an online purchase.

## Background
BACKGROUND
When a user visits a company's website, he often reaches a point where he has a question, or needs assistance or further information immediately, e.g., before making a purchase of goods or services. The user often leaves the website at that point, without making the purchase, and may or may not call the company or website sponsor or owner later for help.
Additionally, a user may begin a transaction to make a purchase from a company on a website, and may decide to cancel out of the transaction. Often, the user is presented with a message like “You are about to cancel your transaction. Your information will not be saved. For help with this transaction or to continue by phone, call us toll-free at 1-800-555-1234.” It is unlikely that the user will respond to this type of message. In some cases, the user may not even receive a message. This is a missed opportunity for the company to increase the likelihood of making an online sale.
SUMMARY
Click-to-callback provides an icon or link on a webpage that a user can select or click on. When the icon or link is clicked or otherwise selected, the user is provided with a list of his previously stored phone numbers to choose from, or a blank field to enter an alternate number, for an immediate return call from a representative of the entity (e.g., the company) associated with the webpage. When this request is submitted, the representative desirably calls the user back immediately (e.g., within 10 seconds) to provide assistance to the user. Thus, the user remains on the company's website, and gets the help he needs to continue on the website, which may, for example, lead to the user making an online purchase.
This summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the detailed description. This summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used to limit the scope of the claimed subject matter.



BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The foregoing summary, as well as the following detailed description of illustrative embodiments, is better understood when read in conjunction with the appended drawings. For the purpose of illustrating the invention, there is shown in the drawings example constructions of the invention; however, the invention is not limited to the specific methods and instrumentalities disclosed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A user when visiting a page of content, such as a website or webpage, for example shown in FIG. 1, may click an icon 7, a link, or other selectable item such as a button or menu item (collectively referred to herein as an icon), that is displayed on the page 5 along with other content 6 on the page 5, to request an immediate callback (e.g., within about 10 seconds) from a representative at the entity (e.g., a company or other entity, collectively referred to herein as a company) associated with the website or page. After the user clicks the icon or link 7, for example, previously stored phone numbers associated with the user are displayed in a window 8, and the user may select one of the numbers to be called back on. Alternately, the user may enter a number in a window 9 on which to receive the callback. The user may also input comments or questions in the window 9, for example, that desirably will be provided to the representative ahead of the callback. The arrangement of icons, data, and windows shown in FIG. 1 is exemplary only, and any suitable arrangement may be used.
When the request for a callback is submitted, a representative of the company calls the user back with help, desirably immediately, using the number the user selected or entered. In this manner, the user remains on the website and receives the assistance he desires, and is more likely, for example, to complete the transaction.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an example callback system. The example callback system 10 may be associated with a company, such as a financial services company, and desirably comprises a rules engine 15, a contact routing engine 20, storage 25, a web service 30, a dialer 35, and a co-browse server 40. The system 10 also has a website 45 or other presence on the Internet that may be accessed by a user via a user computing device 70. Although only one user computing device 70 is shown in FIG. 1, it is contemplated that any number of user computing devices may be in communication with the callback system 10. An example user computing device is described with respect to FIG. 6.
Service representatives 50 associated with the company are also shown, and are desirably in contact with the system 10 via the contact routing engine 20. It is contemplated that any number of service representatives 50 may be associated with the company.
The rules engine 15 desirably comprises, maintains, and/or analyzes rules, conditions, and circumstances to determine whether to display the callback icon on the webpage. The rules may be stored in storage associated with the rules engine 15, such as the storage 25 or other storage. The storage 25 may also be used to store user information, phone numbers, contextual information, and customer entered contextual information, described further herein. The storage 25, for example, may comprise a database.
The contact routing engine 20 may be used to determine whether a service representative is available to callback the user at a user phone 75, and may also be used to determine which service representative is available. These and other components of the example callback system 10 are described further herein, and may be implemented in a computing device or environment, such as that described with respect to FIG. 6, for example. Additionally, software modules may be used in the performance of the example techniques described herein.
FIGS. 3-5 are flow diagrams representing various aspects of an example callback method. A user on a website, such as a member, customer, or prospective member or customer, visits or logs onto a website or page 45, at step 300.
It is then determined whether an icon 7 should be displayed, e.g., in a corner of the page display, at step 310, that is directed to a callback request. Desirably, the icon is displayed only under certain circumstances or business rules, as determined by the rules engine 15. This set of one or more predetermined circumstances and/or rules is checked at step 310.
Example circumstances and rules include showing the link if the user has logged into the site (as opposed to being a guest), if the user is a registered user, if the user has been on the page or a particular section of the website for at least a predetermined amount of time, if a service representative is available to call the user back, and/or contextual information (e.g., the page the user is on, the content he is looking at, etc.). For example, a check is made with the contact routing engine 20 to determine if a service representative is available and to determine if a previously assisting service representative (e.g., who worked with the user previously) is available for further assistance.
Thus, for a subsequent user callback request, the user may be presented with the identifier of a representative who assisted him in the past, and can request that that particular representative call him back, e.g., either immediately or at a later time. Desirably, if a service representative is available (regardless of whether the available service representative has assisted the user in the past), then the icon is displayed.
Other example circumstances and rules dictate if the link can be shown based on various characteristics or demographics of the user, time and day of week, and location of the user (e.g., state or time zone), for example. Thus, for example, the icon is displayed if a service representative is available and the predetermined circumstances and rules allow it, or is not displayed if a service representative is not available or the other circumstances or rules prevent it.
According to an embodiment, if it is determined that service representatives are too busy to immediately callback (e.g., estimated callback time will be greater than about 10 minutes, a callback queue has at least five users waiting to receive callbacks, etc.), then the callback icon is desirably not provided to the user. This determination may be based on call queue depth and average wait time, for example.
Optionally, if click-to-callback is not immediately available, it may be desirable to prompt the user anyway with the icon, and if the user selects the icon, the user may be notified that an immediate callback is not available, but a callback will be made at some point in the future (at a user selectable time, for example, or as soon as a service representative is available). Desirably, the user information and contextual information will be saved (e.g., in the storage 25) and ultimately provided to the service representative, so that the service representative who calls the user back later knows what the user was working on. Alternatively, the callback request may be sent to a less appropriate (less skilled, for example) service representative for quicker, desirably immediate, handling.
It is contemplated that various weights may be assigned to various factors, conditions, circumstances, and/or rules, and the rules engine 15 takes these weights into account when determining whether or not an icon should be displayed. For example, whether or not a user is registered may be assigned a weight of 2, and whether or not a service representative is available may be assigned a weight of 10. The rules engine may then add the various weights based on the check of the various factors, conditions, circumstances, and/or rules, and determine whether or not to display the icon.
For example, assume the user is registered (+2) and a service representative is available (+10). If the predetermined threshold for displaying an icon is set to 11, then the icon will be displayed, because the addition of the results of the weights of the two rules add to 12 (2+10). However, if the user is not registered (0), and the service representative is available (+10), if the threshold for displaying an icon is set to 11, then the icon will not be displayed because the results only add to 10 (0+10). The example addition of weights techniques is just one example, and it is contemplated that many types of weighting factors, algorithms, techniques, and thresholds may be used in the determination as to whether or not to display a callback icon on a webpage.
Based on the results of the check of the predetermined circumstances, the icon is displayed (e.g., rendered) at step 320, or not displayed at step 330. If the icon is not displayed, an alert may be sent to the company, logged, or otherwise stored along with the circumstances, so the company can monitor its users and the circumstances, and/or determine if there is an internal problem (e.g., no service representatives available during a busy time), for example. If the icon is not displayed, then the process desirably exits and the user may still use the webpage, but without the display of a callback request icon.
If the check of the predetermined circumstances and rules results in the icon being displayed, then the icon may be displayed with a name of a service representative and a message, for example, that states “Click to speak with a service representative (name of service representative) now”. If the previous assisting service representative is available (e.g., by checking the storage that contains user information and service representative history, etc.), the message displayed with the icon may display the name of the service representative and a message that states “Click to speak with (name of service representative) now”, for example. If the previously assisting service representative is not available, the message may state “Click to receive a callback now”, for example.
In some example embodiments, a contact routing engine 20 may be eliminated or not used. In such embodiments, a determination may not be made as to whether there is a service representative available for a callback. A display of an icon on a webpage thus will not be premised on the availability or unavailability of a service representative. As long as the other circumstances and rules pertaining to displaying a callback icon are met or result in a determination that a callback icon should be displayed, a callback icon will desirably be displayed. If a callback request is then made by a user by selecting the icon, the call will desirably be routed to a service representative, regardless of the service representative availability. If a service representative is not immediately available, the user may be placed in a callback queue and appropriately notified of the queue and perhaps a prospective wait time. Optionally, the user may receive a callback at a later time.
A user may be moved up in the callback queue, depending on, for example, the user's membership level (e.g., based on activity level, or level he purchased), whether the user is a new member, where the user is on the website (e.g., if he is pages or steps deep into an activity or purchase), and how long the user has been on the website. Other factors may also be considered.
At some point, if the icon is being displayed, the user may select or click on the icon to request a callback, at step 400 of FIG. 4. This request is sent to a web service 30 for a callback, at step 410. The web service desirably captures the user session data (e.g., contextual information, such as user identifier, webpage clicked from, additional session information, etc.), at step 420. At step 430, the web service makes a call to storage, such as a central user information database associated with the storage 25, for a data lookup to retrieve the user's previously stored phone numbers (e.g., gathered from a user's earlier purchase, membership or registration information, or public sources such as online telephone listings or books). At step 440, the web service passes a user identifier as a session key to the co-browse server 40.
At step 450, the request returns the known phone numbers, if any, that are maintained in storage (or captured in real-time, e.g., from an online data source) for that user, to the web service for use in a “number selection” window (e.g., window 8 in FIG. 1). The “number selection” window may then be presented, at step 460, to the user with the known phone numbers pre-filled with appropriate labels (e.g., home, mobile phone), a blank “other” number field and a text field (e.g., window 9 in FIG. 1) for a brief explanation of the reason for the desired callback, such as a customer entered context that allows a user to enter text to provide a brief explanation, comment, or question, for example. The user may then select the desired return number, or enter a separate number in the “other” box, and clicks “submit”, for example, at step 470.
For example, when the member clicks the callback icon, a request is sent to a servlet that makes a lookup call to a user data database, with the returning phone numbers being passed back and displayed in a “number selection” window being presented to the user, along with a blank field for the user to enter an alternate number.
Desirably, specific customer information may then be captured and sent to the appropriate service representative who may then callback the user. For example, contextual information from the page the user is on is captured and analyzed, so that the request for callback may be sent to the most appropriate service representative or service group of representatives available.
As noted above, when selecting the phone number to be called on, a window or box is also displayed to the user for entering a question or comment (i.e., customer entered context) that will be provided to the service representative who will be calling the user back. In this manner, the service representative will have this question or comment in front of him when speaking with the user, and be better equipped to provide service or assistance to the user.
Once the “Submit” button has been pressed, the web service passes the request to the contact routing engine, at step 500, as shown in FIG. 5. Once passed, the web service presents a window or message to the user, at step 510, that indicates to the user, or notifies the user, that the request is being processed and a callback will be made shortly to the requesting user. This window desirably will also display any status or error conditions that are produced during the callback request. Additionally, a phone number may be provided to the user to call if he does not receive the callback. The user may also be requested to leave a co-browse window open while the company contacts the user.
Then, at step 520, the contact routing engine desirably reserves a service representative, either a previously assisting service representative if available or another appropriate available service representative, and passes the captured session data (e.g., phone number, page clicked from, user identifier, contextual information, customer entered context) to the service representative with a user data or portal screen, at step 530, before dialing the user, at step 540. Desirably, determination of the service representative is queue and skill specific, so the request is routed to the most appropriate and available service representative.
Once the service representative is reserved and the data is passed, the callback request is desirably placed in the telephony or outbound dialer 35 for callback. For example, a servlet may insert a call record into a dialer table which then dials the user immediately. The user may then be dialed for requested callback, and the service representative and user may engage in a phone conversation, at step 550. Desirably, redundancy is provided so that if the automatic dialer is down, and the user is expecting a call, a representative will be notified and the call to the user may be placed manually.
Optionally, the service representative designated to place the callback may receive a notification about the number of users who are waiting to speak with him. In this way, the representative can finish his current call quickly, and reduce the queue.
Once on the phone with the user, the service representative may assist the user and may find it desirable to join the user's online (e.g., Internet) session to assist with issues and, for example, to discuss other services and products (e.g., the user calls about an auto policy, but banking accounts, credit cards, rental and home owners insurance, for example, may be discussed). The service representative can initiate a co-browse, e.g., by clicking on a link. The service representative and user can co-browse and talk on the telephone simultaneously. The service representative may offer to join the session with the user, and if acceptable to the user, the service representative starts a co-browse service with the user's identifier used as the key for the co-browse session, at step 560. When the user selects the phone number he wants to be called back on and submits it, the user identifier may be passed as a co-browse key to a co-browse server. The user clicks an “accept” or similar button, for example, and a co-browse session may be started for both the service representative and the user at step 570.
It is contemplated that a user may access the website or page from a mobile device such as a cell phone or other phone enabled mobile device, and receive the option to request a callback at their mobile device. In such an example, co-browse may not be provided.
Monitoring and reporting may also be provided. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, an example monitoring tool 42 may monitor the call status for each callback requested to report the status of call attempts (via the dialer, for example) and web service operation (successful passing of a request to the contact routing engine and returned values to the user facing screens). An example reporting tool 44 may use the dialer information and callback requests to produce a report based on call volumes daily, weekly and monthly, pages being clicked from, and call volume by state or other location, for example. An example web monitoring tool 46 may monitor the “page clicked from” values being passed from the web service. If a pattern is detected (such as a predetermined pattern) that indicates an outage or other potential issue, a warning may be sent to check the website for an outage or other issue.
According to an example embodiment, when a user is canceling out of an application to make an online purchase (e.g., via the Internet), a callback icon is displayed. In this manner, instead of, or after, canceling out of the purchase application, a user may request a callback from a service representative, either immediately or at a predetermined time in the future, if immediately is not desirable or convenient to the user. The representative may then assist the user in completing the purchase application, from where on the page or application the user was attempting to cancel out, or had already canceled out.
A user incentive may be provided in addition to the callback. For example, if a user who has canceled out of a purchase, or is attempting to cancel, a callback icon may be displayed along with an offer, such as “get 5% off if you buy using the callback icon”. In this manner, a user may be persuaded to make a purchase, or request a callback from a service representative who may then provide the assistance the user needs in order to make a purchase.
According to another embodiment, the callback icon may also appear on error pages, so the company, website operator, or other entity, may identify a problem, e.g., if there is a concentration of calls from that page. Or a user can call and notify the company of the error page. In this manner, the user provides some webpage or process error detection.
