The Importance of Connections During a Pandemic – Phone Calls & Texting

Feb 11, 2021

With vaccines for COVID-19 now making their way throughout the country, there’s a light at the end of tunnel for many people. However, these next few months will require extra diligence. We will need to continue social distancing, stay organized, and emphasize cooperation while vaccine distribution is underway over the coming months. 

In other words, more now than ever it’s important to keep the lines of communication open and active. Fortunately, there are several ways for companies big and small to reach customers today. 

Everyone has curtailed their in-person social interactions during the pandemic, which has caused the volume of phone calls over the past several months to boom!  If you haven’t already, make sure your business phone lines are accessible and clearly identified as people continue to seek out a friendly voice on the other end of the line. 

Promoting voice communications with customers can benefit your company too: Voice conversations can yield powerful customer insights that pave the way to better marketing and sales performance. It’s a win-win.

Even during a pandemic, the ease of texting is hard to beat. By text enabling your business number, you’re opening up consumers’ favorite communication channel. Add texting to your communications portfolio to drive customer engagement and improve customer experience during a time when added convenience goes a long way.
