Abstract

A computer-implemented system and method for providing coaching to agents in a call center during a call is provided. A voice recording is obtained from a call between a caller and an agent of a call center. The voice recording of the caller is analyzed by measuring voice characteristics of the voice recording and by identifying traits of the caller based on the voice characteristics. A stage of persuasion of the caller is identified based on the identified traits in response to an offer provided by the agent. The caller is persuaded to accept the offer by providing guidance to the agent regarding further information about the offer for the user based on the stage of persuasion.
