Phone Messages
When callers are waiting, Messages On Hold help avoid losing business.
The best way to impress customers and lower the rate of callers putting the phone down while they wait in a queue is to have a quality program of Messages On Hold
Often the first contact a person has with a company will be over the phone. So it's vital to make a favourable impression because that first impression is the one that really counts.
We have all been through the horrible hell of a bad On Hold experience.
They range from being left in "deadly silence" - hello is there anybody out there?
To the mind-numbing torture of those ghastly chimes or computer generated "elevator music".
Some organisations simply take a risk by connecting a CD player or plugging the radio into their telephone system. That means in Australia they are legally obliged to pay annual fees to APRA and PPCA.
Then of course there are the penny pinchers who believe a DIY job is good enough. They never count the cost to their sales figures or damage to the company image.
The end result is a badly worded, poorly recorded boring announcement that has probably been voiced by somebody in the office who got railroaded into the job.
However we won't let you settle for second best. As part of Media Group, the business audio specialists, we create Messages On Hold programs that are expertly written, professionally voiced and produced in our own quality recording studios.
