Modern
commercial telephone systems have an amazing array of features. These
facilities permit a company to provide excellent service to incoming
calls from both new customers and prospective new clients.
VOIP
systems (Voice Over Internet Protocol) are so efficient they add a
new level of privacy for incoming calls and greatly reduce the
workload on internal staff.
In
the past even playing a simple Message
Onhold
required additional equipment. Today business phones have most
functions built-in. They may be re-programmed or updated online.
Reducing
incoming caller hang-ups
Correctly
used, the features of a new VOIP system will greatly enhance your
company image as a well-run, technology savvy organisation. More
importantly such a system can help reduce the number of callers who
might hang up and go elsewhere. This especially true when they call
you after hours or during those extra busy times.
Calls
can be greeted with a pre-recorded Welcome Message. This message if
well-written and read by a professional voice
artist
can set the right mood and create a great first impression. As we all
know, in business first impressions count.
If
you have a number of departments you may install an Auto Attendant
message to direct callers to the person or extension they require.
For Sales press 1, etc.
Placing
a caller Onhold is no longer a death sentence
There
was a time, not too far back, when asking a caller to “hold the
line” was a sure way to chase them off to your competitor.
As
time progressed callers became used to the idea and even tolerated
the inane computer chimes the systems played. But they continued to
hang-up and vanish.
The
systems upgraded to classical selections. Then someone suggested
adding messages as well. Companies went to the next step of recording
a Message
Onhold
and installing machines to replay the message.
It
was usually an apologetic statement about how much the call meant and
a vague promise to get back to the caller ASAP.
Finally
a better way emerged. At Media Group, the business audio specialists
the Message Onhold has been perfected as part of a total package.
Now
the caller is informed and entertained with a series of messages
containing interesting information about the company and its products
or services.
Now
callers hold to hear your customised messages
Media
Group will provide the most comprehensive package of messages to help
keep callers from hanging up. Plus you’ll see lots of ways to
exploit the full potential of your telephone system.
