The Most In-Demand Auto Attendant Features and Benefits
An Auto Attendant Assists Your Customer-Facing Staff
It takes a lot of emotional energy for your staff to maintain their friendly and upbeat personas in the face of constant emotional attacks from your existing and potential clients. Like it or not, customers can be difficult to work with, and your staff needs all the help they can get.
Think of it this way, your staff needs to conserve that all-important emotional energy to ensure that your team can focus on closing deals and making your company more money. But how? Enter the Auto Attendant.
An Auto Attendant Saves Your Staff Time and Saves You Money
The Auto Attendant can help answer simple questions, saving your staff valuable time answering more complex questions or assisting customers with expanding their current service with you. Saving this time means that you don’t have to hire that second receptionist to field calls when business is booming.
Keeps Your Agents Sharp
Never Miss a New Client
Worried about potential leads while one of your staff is on a must-deserved vacation? There’s a setting for that! Your Auto Attendant can direct incoming calls the most available and relevant person once it surveys that caller’s needs.
Make Your Customers Happy
Set Up Automatic Text Messaging
Turn On Anonymous Call Rejection
Take Advantage of Auto-Hold Messaging Features
Sometimes a customer must wait for their intended department to pick up once your Auto Attendant has directed them to the correct line. However — this is a captive audience. You can program your Auto Attendant to deliver pre-recorded messages about the latest offers at your company or even direct them to more information on your website.
What better way to maximize your sales than to ensure that the customers on hold are getting the most relevant information delivered to them directly?
Give an Amazing First Impression Every Time
Often times a call is the first interaction that a customer has with your business. Why would you leave it up to chance as to whether they have a positive and friendly experience or not? An Auto Attendant can ensure that each and every customer is receiving prompt, professional, and friendly service the first time, every time.
Customized Messaging to Fit the Context
Never Miss a Another Call
Your Auto Attendant can help ensure that you and your company never miss an important call, even when you’re on the go. The Auto Attendant can even deliver calls to a corresponding app on your sales staff’s cell phones when they are off-site using their actual business number. This ensures seamless and prompt customer service all the time.
