Zintel Customer Case Study

Suzy runs a florist store. She gets a lot of enquiries over the phone, but some of them are for a completely unrelated service. She realised that another company had a similar 0800/0508 number, and that their customers were misdialling.

So Suzy set up our Welcome Message feature. She uses it to announce her business name to callers. Since getting set up, Suzy receives almost no enquiries for the other business. Nearly all callers are potential customers asking about floristry. Her productivity has increased and she’s able to focus more on growing her business and serving her customers.
