Putting Polysleep’s Business Phone Problems to Bed

Polysleep is a Canadian company delivering excellent experiences both in the waking and sleeping worlds with its top-quality mattresses and customer service. As part of their pledge to make the world sleep better, Polysleep offers their customers a 100-night free trial, letting them tweak their experience with comprehensive feedback and donating returned mattresses to charity.

But doing this means a lot of time spent on the phone speaking to customers and coordinating with various charity organizations. And when Polysleep’s old retail call center software couldn’t keep up anymore, CloudTalk stepped up to put their problems to bed.

After several months of relying solely on CloudTalk, Polysleep has found the software irreplaceable. In a single month, the team has spent 4,000+ minutes on inbound and outbound calls and made 1,300+ client calls using four Canadian phone numbers. Their work processes have also been streamlined thanks to CloudTalk’s native 3rd party integration and automation features, leading to better results than ever before.
