Now more than ever, with the recent increase of technology within the restaurant industry, customers do not want to be put on hold. A study from Velaro asked their respondents how long they were willing to wait on hold. Their study found:
- 32% of respondents were not willing to be on hold at all.
- 27% are willing to wait up to 1 minute.
- 30% are willing to wait more than a minute.
With a staggering 59% of customers hanging up after being placed on hold for a minute or less, restaurants are missing out on a lot of business.
How do you take calls during a dinner rush when your pizzeria is short-staffed?
Part-time staff working from home could be the answer!
Staff answer calls and place orders directly into your store’s POS system working remote or from a central office, streamlining the entire process. Now, your restaurant can leverage a high volume of calls and never miss a beat. Not only does this allow restaurants to increase their sales, but it also lets callers know that you value their time.
Microsoft research found that 69% of consumers say customer service is very significant for their loyalty!
Customer loyalty is a huge driver, so being placed on hold can mean the difference between a long-time loyal customer and a lost customer.
