摘要:
The present invention provides systems and methods for selling goods and services on in conjunction with the Internet. The system receives session information on a customer's website session from the enterprise's website and may also receive customer information on the customer from the enterprise's system. The system determines from the received information, based on the interaction between matching rules created using the system by the enterprise and the system's matching engine, whether the customer is a candidate for assistance from a sales associate. The system creates and indexes information on available sales associates and their performance, selling capabilities and product expertise. The system further matches the customer with at least one sales associate, ideally the most appropriate sales associate, based on the customer, session, and sales profile associate information, and facilitates communication between the sales associate and the customer.

A transaction system has a first Internet-connected service provider enterprise and second enterprises maintaining each at least one financial account for a user. Third enterprises maintaining billing accounts associated with the users. There is an interactive interface that displays account balances and bills. The user, through the interactive interface, commands payment of a bill from an account by drag and drop.

A Web server hosted by a first enterprise has a first mechanism receiving a request for information or services to be provided to an end user, and a second mechanism determining whether the request comes directly from the end user, or from a server hosted by a second enterprise. If the request is determined by the second mechanism to come from the server hosted by the second enterprise, any information or service provided to the end user by the first enterprise is identified as coming from the second enterprise.
摘要:
The system of the present invention provides systems and methods for selling goods and services on, over, through, and in conjunction with the Internet. The system receives session (clickstream) information on a customer's website session from the enterprise's website and may also receive customer information on the customer from the enterprise's CRM or eCRM system. The session information referred to comprises the goods or services the customer is searching and metadata about such search and the relevant products, such as the surfing pattern itself. The system determines from the received information, based on the interaction between matching rules created using the system by the enterprise and the system's matching engine, whether the customer is a candidate for assistance from a sales associate. The system creates and indexes information on available sales associates and their performance, selling capabilities and product expertise. The system further matches the customer with at least one sales associate, ideally the most appropriate sales associate, based on the customer, session, and sales profile associate information, and facilitates communication between the sales associate and the customer. Additionally, the system provides information on the customer, products or services the customer is interested in, and the collateral sales materials (both internal and external to the enterprise) and selling techniques to the sales associate based on the particular sales opportunity. The system facilitates communication between the sales associate and the customer on the basis of chat, voice over IP, email and the public switched telephone network, including the concept of bridging a chat session into a PSTN conference call during which call the sales associate and customer maintain a co-browsing session with regard to the opportunity over the Internet.

A personal information collection and delivery system has a collection component executed by a first enterprise, for collecting information for specific individuals from a plurality of information provider's sites, an aggregation component executed by the first enterprise, for aggregating and storing the collected information identified for individual ones of the specific individuals; and a plurality of delivery components executed by a like plurality of second enterprises, for delivering said aggregated information to the specific individuals. This system is characterized in that delivery is distinguished to individual ones of the second enterprises. In some cases the information providers are the second enterprises that manage delivery, in which case they may limit access according to a variety of variables. Also in some cases the providers also provide transactions services, and the specific individuals connecting through the system may accomplish transactions, which may include drag-and-drop implementation.

A software-based syndication and filtering platform for a first Web server hosted by a first enterprise has a rules-based filter for interacting with communications from customers of the first enterprise, the communications coming from a second Web-site of a second enterprise, and a discrimination layer for providing specific services to said customers according to one or more characteristics of the Web site of the second enterprise. In some cases there is also a layer for interacting with a third Web server hosted by a third enterprise. In preferred embodiments the services include a broad range of transaction capabilities.

A method of gathering sales information is provided. The method may involve linking, based on a matching score, a sales associate to a customer for assisting in an online sales transaction, and providing the sales associate with best practices information to use during the transaction. The best practices information may have been gathered by monitoring online sales transactions between sales associates and customers, indexing information and sales techniques used by the sales associates during the online sales transactions, and ranking and dynamically re-ranking the information and sales techniques based at least in part on the outcome of the corresponding online sales transaction.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a system and functionality that removes the guess work out of trying to determine which browsers on a web site are more likely to end up with a good disposition. One approach introduced by the present invention is to first make sure the sales server captures as much information about browsers as is possible with respect to their activity on the website/ecommerce server. Then the server enables the enterprise to use business rules to define the population of browsers that are eligible for chat invitations. Out of this population, the server, on behalf of individual agents, approaches browsers as randomly as possible. As agents are entering into engagements and recording their disposition codes, the server periodically determines if it can identify any patterns in behavior of those engagements that end up with a good disposition code. For example, the server may note that browsers who were invited to chat in the 8th minute of their session and those who had seen 2 product pages end up in good engagements four times more often than the average browser. Once a sufficient sample set of engagements is conducted to allow the server to develop a statistically valid profile/model of browsers who end up with good engagements, the server compares all new browsers against this model and provides a numeric number representing how close the new browser is to the model. This number, called a score, is then used by the system to sort the browsers in real time and used as the criteria as to who should be approached and in which order.
