On Hold Messages for Government

Establishing clear communication and a professional image is essential to any government agency. On hold marketing offers the perfect opportunity to do both. If you had a chance to educate callers, what would you want them to know? Informing callers before they speak to a live representative helps streamline call flow, and creates a more streamlined experience with your government agency. Best of all, updating your messages is fast and easy, allowing you to change your messaging as frequently as needed.
