Looking for tips on a great Phone On Hold message? Phone on hold messages are simple, but not easy. What do I mean by that? In about 5 minutes you can understand everything you really need to know.
Phone on hold messages are simple
Your hold message is simple: you want to sound more professional and sell more on every phone call. And you’ve got a great opportunity:
- you have several good products (or services) to offer your customers
- you have customers and prospects who call you for help
- you have a “captive” audience: you have a good idea of who is calling you and how you can help them, and they’re willing to wait (a short while) for your help.
So all you need is to put that opportunity to use, for your telephone caller, and for your business. Use this time to inform your callers, and deliver your message about why they’d be crazy to do business with anyone else. You can do it with a phone on hold message.
- short messages work better than long ones: our attention spans are short
- focus on one product or benefit in each message, then on another in the next message
- involve your prospect with great “content” in each message to keep them involved and focused on you
- when your phone on hold script is ready, record it professionally for the best effect.
But phone on hold messages aren’t easy.
How easy is it to write “killer” advertising copy? Amazing advertising copy can sound so simple when you hear it, but it’s not easy to create.
You’re the best at what you do: you’re a dentist, a doctor, an insurance broker, or a car salesman. But how much do you work at marketing messages, like phone on hold messages? Probably not much…or never. So you can choose:
- use generic “please hold” messages that say nothing about your business
- give it a shot and see if your own messages do anything
- talk with someone who gets results (and whose phone on hold clients say things like this…)
