Quick answer
For your first Refund scripts task, do not change many settings: run defaults once, then adjust one item at a time. Refund scripts reduce friction; they do not promise an outcome.
Why it matters
Change one variable at a time so you know which setting matters.
Confirm facts and order before explaining policy.
Step by step
- Define QA goals and observable behaviors before building a giant scorecard.
- Stratify samples by shift, channel and risk so they represent real problems.
- Calibrate scoring boundaries before ranking or performance decisions.
- Attribute issues to knowledge, process, system or people before choosing fixes.
Common mistakes
- Scoring without calibration makes managers incomparable.
- Sampling only easy tickets biases the result.
- Using QA as punishment makes agents hide context.
- Looking only at CSAT while ignoring resolution and rework.
Checklist
- Scorecard has behavioral anchors.
- Sampling has stratification rules.
- Calibration records disputed samples.
- Issues have owners and review dates.
Key facts
- Confirm facts and order before explaining policy.
- Offer options: refund, replacement, credit, escalation.
- Do not use 'company policy' as the only reason.
