Overview

The "Escalate To Managers via Email" tool is designed to streamline the process of escalating critical issues to managers through email. This tool ensures that important matters receive prompt attention and resolution by automatically notifying the appropriate managers. It is particularly useful for teams that need to handle urgent issues efficiently and ensure that nothing falls through the cracks.

Who this tool is for

Customer Support Agents: If you are a customer support agent, this tool allows you to quickly escalate customer issues that require managerial intervention. By using this tool, you can ensure that critical customer problems are addressed promptly, improving customer satisfaction and reducing response times.

Sales Representatives: As a sales representative, you can use this tool to escalate important client communications or deal negotiations that need managerial approval or input. This ensures that high-stakes deals are handled with the necessary oversight, increasing the likelihood of successful outcomes.

Project Managers: For project managers, this tool is invaluable for escalating project-related issues that need higher-level decision-making. Whether it's a resource allocation problem or a critical project delay, you can ensure that these issues are brought to the attention of senior management swiftly.

How the tool works

This tool operates through a series of automated steps designed to gather necessary information and send an escalation email to the appropriate managers. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how it works:

1. Gathering Information: The tool first collects essential details such as the prospect's email, the subject of the email, the agent's ID, the conversation ID, and the latest reply from the prospect. These details are crucial for creating a comprehensive escalation email.

2. Fetching Organizational Details: The tool makes an API call to fetch organizational details like the region code and project ID. This information is used to generate a tracking link that managers can use to view more details about the issue.

3. Generating Tracking Link: Using the fetched organizational details, the tool generates a tracking link. This link directs managers to a detailed view of the issue, providing them with all the context they need to address the problem effectively.

4. Sending the Escalation Email: The tool then composes an email using the gathered information. The email includes the prospect's email, the subject, the tracking link, and the latest reply from the prospect. This email is sent to the specified managers, ensuring they are promptly informed about the critical issue.

5. Confirmation of Email Sent: Finally, the tool checks if the email was successfully sent. If the email is sent successfully, it returns a confirmation message indicating that the escalation has been handled. If not, it prompts the user to try escalating the issue again.
