You typically have no idea who it might be when your phone rings, and your first impression can be a huge influence on the caller’s decision to carry out business with you.  Since this could be the first contact between a caller and your business, it is very important to have a professionally recorded Auto Attendant Greeting for your company.  Hold Please Communications can make it happen in four simple steps.

1. Choosing The Right Voice For Your Brand

2. Crafting The Script

Whether you need short voice prompts for an Auto Attendant Greeting or IVR application, or longer audio files for a narrated video or eLearning tutorial, H.P.C. makes it easy for you to submit your script.  Email us your pre-written scripts or let us know your ideas and we will write them for you.  Using special sections for pronunciation and intonation notes, we will be sure to capture the right sound to best convey your message.  Our professional team of script writers and reviewers will review your content and make suggestions if required.  We will contact you if we have any questions prior to the start of the recording session.

3. Recording Your Voice-Overs
