Menu Prompts

Phone Messages

Menu Prompts aka Interactive Voice Responses (IVRs) allow calls to be directed to a specified department or staff member.

Often referred to as anInteractive Voice Response (IVR) the Menu Prompt is designed to instruct callers to take the action needed to connect directly to a person or department.

As an example the prompt might say; "For new sales enquiries, Press One; For the Service Department Press Two; For Accounts Payable, Press Three..."

The benefits are fairly obvious; incoming callers spend less time getting to the person or department they are calling and the self-service nature of the facility reduces staff involvement in directing an external call.

Callers also appreciate the added privacy of being directly connected to the person or department they require without involving another staff member to make the connection.

Regular callers will be aware of the IVR system and can save even more time by selecting the required number to dial without having to listen to the entire menu.
