Why answering in the caller's language matters in Chicago
Chicago has about 2.7 million people, and roughly 607,865 of them speak Spanish at home, which is 23.7 % of residents. Another 10.2 % of all residents speak Spanish and have limited English. When the heat dies in January, a caller wants to explain the problem in the language they think in. Clara opens in English, asks which language the caller prefers, and continues in Spanish, Portuguese or English.
A hot Saturday in June in Chicago
It is a Saturday in June and the heat is building. A homeowner calls from Cicero because her central system is 15 years old and the air blows warm. She wants to know if she should replace it. Meanwhile you are on a job in Oak Park with your hands full. Clara answers in Spanish, notes an older adult at home, asks the system type and its age, and offers the first open slot in your calendar for a technician visit. Clara does not quote prices on the phone. When the call ends, you get a notification with the summary, and you decide when to call her back after your job. Without Clara, that call would likely have gone to voicemail.
