Order escalations

Takes the angry 'where is my order?' call and — while the customer is still on the line — calls the warehouse and the carrier in parallel, verifies the real answer, offers only what's confirmed, and saves the sale.

01 · Problem

The customer can hold for two minutes
the truth takes your team two days.

The dead end

The tracking page is where answers end

The agent reads the customer the same stalled tracking page they already saw. The real status lives at the warehouse and on the carrier's dock — reachable by email ticket, in days.

The blind promise

Offers made on hope

Under pressure, agents promise 'it should arrive soon' with nothing behind it. The second missed promise costs more than the first — now you're a company that says things.

The cancel point

By callback time, it's a cancellation

The customer who asked a question on Monday is canceling by Wednesday. Every hour between question and answer converts frustration into churn.

The answer existed — at the warehouse, on the carrier's dock. Nobody could reach it during the call.

02 · Solution

One call in. Two calls out — at the same time.

Customer calls: the refrigerator promised yesterday still isn't here

  • Premium customer · 9 orders across 4 years
  • Tracking stalled — no scan since dispatch

"It was supposed to arrive yesterday and I still don't have it. Where's my order?"

Clarwiz· Voice

"I'll check directly with the warehouse and our delivery partner right now — not just the tracking page. Give me one moment."

Two outbound calls at once — warehouse and carrier, live
Memory
  • Warehouse confirms: left dock 12 four days ago, clean records
  • Carrier admits: truck breakdown — held at the Dallas hub
  • Revised ETA pinned: four days, noted against the shipment
Clarwiz· Warehouse

On line one: confirms shipment #48291 left dock 12 four days ago — no damage, clean handoff.

Clarwiz· Carrier

On line two: carrier admits a backlog after a truck breakdown; realistic estimate to Austin, four more days.

Clarwiz· Voice

Reports back honestly: held at the carrier's Dallas hub, four more days — and apologizes for the missed promise.

11:06 AM · The save
SignalVoice
Customer says cancel — the save is verified before it's offered
Memory
  • Cancel requested — offered immediately, no friction
  • Express eligibility — premium, but only if the carrier commits
Customer· Voice

"Four days? I've already waited a week. I'd like to cancel the order."

Clarwiz· Carrier

Back on line two: "Can you commit to 48 hours — not best effort? We only promise what you commit to." The carrier confirms: firm.

Outcome· Voice

Fast-tracked to 48 hours, installation moved up to Thursday 11 AM, $50 service credit — and a full-refund guarantee if the window is missed.

Clarwiz· Zendesk

Writes the full run to the customer's timeline: both carrier calls, the commitment, the credit, the guarantee.

You· Digest

Carrier breakdowns like this roll up weekly — with the cost of every saved and lost order attached.

Both outbound calls above run in parallel and are logged — who said what, verified when.

05 · FAQs
Is the customer just on hold while all this happens?
Briefly, and honestly. The agent says exactly what it's doing — 'I'm checking with the warehouse and the delivery partner right now' — and is back within a couple of minutes with sourced facts. No transfer, no callback, no ticket number to chase.
Are the outbound calls really parallel?
Yes. The warehouse call and the carrier call run at the same time on separate lines, and the customer-facing agent resumes the moment both report back. That's the difference between a two-minute hold and a two-day callback.
What if the carrier won't commit to anything?
Then no commitment is offered. The customer only ever hears what a system or a person confirmed — if the carrier says 'best effort', the customer hears the honest date and the choice stays theirs. A promise without a source never leaves the building.
Can it give compensation, like the $50 credit?
Inside limits you set, exactly like refunds. The service credit and the missed-window guarantee both draw on pre-approved policy; anything above your line waits for a named signature before it is ever said out loud.
What do we need to integrate before a demo?
Nothing. The demo runs end to end on a recorded scenario with your real order data, read-only, in thirty minutes. Going live connects your OMS, telephony, carriers and helpdesk — Shopify, Twilio, Zendesk and about 3,000 others.

Thirty minutes, nothing connected.

We take this process, connect nothing, and show you the run end to end on your real conversations and orders. When you're ready, go live at the autonomy level you choose.
