Methods for simultaneous interaction on a web page by a customer and customer service representative
A computer-implemented method and system for enhancing interaction between a customer using a client computer and a customer service representative of a company using a workstation. A Web session is commenced on a Web site for the client computer of the customer, wherein the Web session includes displaying a first Web page to the customer. A telephonic interaction is commenced between the customer and the customer service representative and a split screen is displayed on the workstation. The split screen including the first Web page and a second Web page, wherein the second Web page is only viewable by the customer service representative. An application is caused to be moved from the second Web page to the first Web page for review and interaction by the customer via the client computer.
1. A computer system for enhancing interaction between a client representative and a client, comprising:
a memory configured to store instructions;
a processor disposed in communication with the memory, wherein the processor upon execution of the instructions is configured to:
commence an interactive session over a computer network between a network coupled client computer and client representative computer, wherein the interactive session includes presenting a first content section on a display of the client computer;
display a split screen on a display of the client representative computer including the first content section and a second content section, wherein the second content section is only viewable by the client representative;
enable modification of an application on the second content section by the client representative during interaction between the client representative and the client; and
enable movement by the client representative of an application modified by the client representative during the interaction from the second content section to the first content section for review and interaction by the client via the client computer.
2. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the processor upon execution of the instructions is further configured to:
prepare a third content section from information contained on the second content section to be used by a second client representative for servicing the client; and
display the third content section on a display associated with the second client representative for facilitating transfer of the client from the first client representative to the second client representative.
3. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the processor upon execution of the instructions is further configured to receive and store data related to the client in association with interaction between the client and the first client representative.
4. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the interactive session is a web session.
5. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the interaction session is an online chat.
6. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the interaction session includes a telephonic exchange between the client and the client representative.
7. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the interaction session includes the client representative being prompted to call the client.
8. The computer system of claim 3 , wherein the received and stored client data includes a client name.
9. The computer system of claim 3 , wherein the received and stored client data includes at least one authentication field for at least one authentication parameter of the client.
10. The computer system of claim 9 , wherein the processor upon execution of the instructions is further configured to authenticate client identity based at least upon the received and stored client data.
11. A computer-implemented method for enhancing interaction between a computer network coupled client and a client representative, comprising the steps of:
commence an interactive session over the computer network between the client computer and client representative computer, wherein the interactive session includes presenting a first content section on a display of the client computer;
display a split screen on a display of the client representative computer including the first content section and a second content section, wherein the second content section is only viewable by the client representative;
enable modification of an application on the second content section by the client representative during interaction between the client representative and the client; and
enable movement by the client representative of an application modified by the client representative during the interaction from the second content section to the first content section for review and interaction by the client via the client computer.
12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , further including:
prepare a third content section from information contained on the second content section to be used by a second client representative for servicing the client; and
display the third content section on a display associated with the second client representative for facilitating transfer of the client from the first client representative to the second client representative.
13. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , further including receiving and storing data related to the client in association with interaction between the client and the first client representative.
14. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the interactive session is a web session.
15. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the interaction session is an online chat.
16. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the interaction session includes a telephonic exchange between the client and the client representative.
17. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the interaction session includes the client representative being prompted to call the client.
18. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 , wherein the received and stored client data includes a client name.
19. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 , wherein the received and stored client data includes at least one authentication field for at least one authentication parameter of the client.
20. The computer-implemented method of claim 19 , further including authenticating client identity based at least upon the received and stored client data.
