Individuals and businesses have had to change how they operate to adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic almost overnight. More people are working from home and many businesses have had to make changes to their business hours and inform customers of delays or alternative methods to contact the business. Not only that, businesses and government bodies are inundated with phone calls which can have customers being placed on hold for longer than average times.
McGirvanmedia Audio Solutions can create audio messages and announcements to keep your callers informed during these tough times.
These could include:
- Change of business hours
- Informing callers that you are working remotely
- Informing callers of protocols put in place to keep both staff and customers safe
- Government initiatives that affect your business or provide benefits for your customers
- Answers to some FAQS
- Redirecting customer enquiries to an email or website link
- Thanking customers for their continued support
- Foreign language translations and recordings
Here are some examples of recordings we have produced for our clients:
