The Hidden Cost of Voicemail
Voicemail might seem free, but it's costing your Canadian business thousands in lost revenue every month
Don't Leave Messages
Studies by Telmetrics show nearly 80% of callers refuse to leave voicemail messages, opting instead to contact competitors who answer promptly.
Lower Conversion Rate
Harvard Business Review found businesses responding within 5 minutes are 8 times more likely to secure sales than those responding after an hour or more.
Missed Calls Monthly
The average small business misses 20-50 calls per month to voicemail during busy periods, after hours, or when staff are unavailable.
Lost Revenue Potential
With average customer lifetime values of $500-2,000, those 20-50 missed calls could represent $10,000+ in lost revenue each month.
Why Voicemail Fails Canadian Businesses
- Zero Engagement: Voicemail offers no conversation, no answers, no help—just a recording device
- Delayed Response: Even if callers leave messages, they wait hours for callbacks while considering other options
- Poor Customer Experience: 73% of customers rate efficient service as critical to brand loyalty (PwC)
- No Appointment Booking: Voicemail can't check calendars, offer time slots, or confirm appointments
- Incomplete Information: Messages are often unclear, missing key details you need to follow up effectively
