Abstract

A system and method for optimizing callback times to increase the success rate of callbacks while managing overflow of calls to alternate sites when callbacks are unsuccessful. The system and method use a pacing algorithm to determine when callbacks are likely to be successful from a preferred contact site, routing to alternate callback sites when callbacks are unsuccessful, and preferences for re-routing back to the preferred site when a callback is successful and the agent with whom the caller has interacted previously is available.
