There are advantages to an automated system. It saves money in salaries and benefits. It prevents old-fashioned phone tag by allowing people to leave detailed messages in their own voice with clear and correct information. Voice mail crosses all time zones so people can leave and retrieve messages at their convenience.
The disadvantages are that people can hide behind voice mail, often the prompts are confusing, working through the menu can be more time-consuming than speaking to a "live" person, and some people just don't like talking to machines.
If your company uses an automated system to process calls make sure it provides the best customer service by following these suggestions:
1. Keep your greeting short and sweet. (No one cares that your menu options have changed. They only want to know what options they have now.)
2. List your menu options according to popular usage.
