Update Your Phone System Messages to Encourage Client Portal Adoption
Turn your phone system into a self-service driver by guiding clients to your digital front door.
Goal
Enhance your phone system’s voicemail and hold recordings to drive more policyholders to use your client portal for faster service and reduce unnecessary inbound calls.
Why This Matters
Many policyholders prefer quick, self-service options for common needs like making payments, accessing documents, or submitting service requests. When your phone recordings guide them to your website’s client portal:
- You reduce call volume for your team
- Clients get faster, more convenient service
- You increase adoption and engagement with your GloveBox platform
- Your staff gains time back to focus on revenue-generating activities
- It creates a better experience, leading to stronger retention and referrals
