This looks like an interesting news release. It's from best-in-class.com, a consulting firm. Here are some sample statistics from their study:
* More than half of companies expect 80%-100% of their call center reps to assume some cross-selling role and responsibility.
* Sixty percent of companies found that most service reps are willing but not ready to sell and have implemented communication and training programs to prepare them for cross-selling.
* Most top-performing service/sales reps -- in 86% of benchmarked companies -- actively listen and probe for unmet needs to convert a service call into a sale.
* Savvy benchmark partners shrink service rep to manager ratios to 10:1 to enable greater coaching and performance management.
