Closing your SwitchboardFREE number & custom introduction

Take a moment to update your out of hours message for your calls.

Top tips on what to include in your message:

  •  Wish your customers season’s greetings
  • Let them know your opening time and when you’re back in the office
  • Invite them to leave a message if it’s important  (you can use the voice-mail to email feature to get all your messages without having to visit the office over the holidays) or use the app to access voice messages

Just like your social media friends, your customers always want to know what’s going on so keep them informed and up to date.

There’s always a lot going on at Christmas, so don’t let your business be a casualty of the hectic holiday season. Follow the above tips for getting your business ready and enjoy the festivities this year.
