Cox Newspapers Inc. tapped
VoicePort for its CircSpeech interactive voice response app to handle
circulation calls at its Florida dailies the Palm Beach Post and Palm Beach
Daily News. The papers have a combined daily circulation of more than 220,000.
VoicePort’s speech-driven IVR
app integrates with circulation databases, eliminating the need to re-key
information, VoicePort said.
“VoicePort will help us
provide 24/7 service to our readers, allowing them to make payments, schedule a
vacation hold and manage their account at their convenience,” said Barry Berg,
vice president of circulation at the Palm Beach Post.
