"We simply didn't want to leave the first point of customer contact in the hands of an inexperienced company. We needed to make sure that the mesages sounded just as professional as we are."
-Melissa Wyatt, J & B Fencing and Gates, Warrandyte, VIC
Being in the travel industry is being a part of one of the most competitive industries in the world. It changes by the second. Information flies across the world and back again within moments and a place once visited, is never the same again.
But you know your business, and what customers want and how they want it – that’s why the most successful agencies use messages onhold on all their incoming calls. Here’s why you should too.
Why do successful travel agencies need Messages On-Hold?
A vibrant and exceptional holiday experience is about more than just getting the cheapest fares – seasoned travelers know that the best advice and service comes from a human being in a travel agency, not from a machine. That’s why travel agencies still exist and haven’t been obliterated by the internet.
People want contact with people – they want the assurance that their destinations and plans are safe and trouble-free. But there are many agencies to choose from and those who provide the best service will get the most customers – and it all begins with the phone call.
Successful agencies leave nothing to chance – no wasted onhold opportunities, and no dead waiting time. Time is money and messages onhold are customers waiting to happen.
