Use Address Object time zone property for some basic profiling. Ever wonder which area of the country your customers live in?

You can use the time zone property for some basic profiling information. With time zone information, you can better allocate your telephone support staff hours to match the time zone of your customers. For example, suppose you are on the west coast (Pacific Standard Time) but a large portion of your customers are on the east coast (Eastern Standard Time).

You may want to make sure you have enough staff available at 8 AM EST, which is 5 AM PST, to handle your east coast customers. Conversely, if you only have a very small portion of customers out of your own time zone, you may not need as much of your staff to keep early/late hours.
