Suite of Tools and Services

Today's environment of smart phones, tablets, social networks, and nearly universal wireless access to the internet is causing businesses to re-evaluate how they connect and communicate with their customers. Consider these facts: over 4 billion people now have cell phones; nearly 2 billion people have internet access; more than 400 million people distribute billions of on-line messages weekly; and 1 of every 5 minutes spent on the internet is at a social networking site.

Merely creating a website is no longer enough. As consumers increasingly use these new, collaborative tools to seek information and make decisions, it's more important than ever that business owners take proactive steps to actively manage their on-line image, increase customer awareness, and drive additional revenue though this new, connected world.

Voice Connection is an Application Service Provider offering a suite of tools and services aimed at helping our clients connect and communicate with their customers. These include:



On-line Appointment Requests

Making it easy for your customers to make an appointment is a small thing that's often overlooked. Surprisingly, it can be a competitive advantage that your customers appreciate and leads to an immediate increase in your revevenue.

Studies show that people browse at their leisure on social media sites and are more willing to buy or take an action than at any other time they are on-line. We offer on-line 'appointment request' tools to clients. These are links that can be added to our clients website and social media pages that enable thier customers to request appointments on-line. These internet-based requests are aggregated and sent to our cloud-based servers. They are then redirected to the clinic's email or web portal. It's an easy way for our clients to become easier to reach.



Appointment Reminders

Voice Connection is an industry leader in automated phone reminders. We offer automated reminders using automated (IVR-based) phone reminders, sms text reminders, or email reminders. For large bulk reminders, we also offer to send post card reminders or provide live-call reminders through our call center capabilities. We have the engineering prowlness to work closely with clients on customized solutions. It's possible to implement a cascading cost reminder service. In this solution, we can send out reminders through the lowest cost media, such as email. If the appointment is not confirmed through that media, we can then resend the reminder in the next higher cost media, such as sms text messages. Likewise, if the appointment is not confirmed through a sms text reply, we can then send an appointment reminder through the customers next preferred media: ie. phone, post card, or live call.

All of our messages can be highly customized according to the clients needs. The messages can be sent in any language. Automated phone messages can be individualized and left in English or Spanish. We use trained, professional, multi-lingual voice recorders to record audio files and the client's preferred language.


iPad ® Surveys and Search Engine Optimation

Our iPad Survey Tool is an incredibly powerful service that captures the 'coolness' of the iPad. As the patient checks out, they are asked to take a one-minute survey on the procedure they just received. Experience has shown that 95-97% of patients take the survey at checkout if it is quick and on an iPad. The survey gathers the patient's email address; identifies which practitioner performed the procedure; contains an overall 1-5 star rating; and has room for several customizable questions. The survey results are then sent to the doctor/dentist that performed the procedure as part of a quality assurance / continuing improvement effort. As importantly, a customized thank you email (based on the 1-5 star rating) is automatically sent to the patient's home email address. These thank you email messages can also offer discounts on future treatments, incentives for referrals, and requests to place a positive reviews at Google Map / Places. Google® includes Reviews from Google Maps / Places in search optimization. A "large body of current reviews" is an effective form of search engine optimization as well as a very practical, on-line marketing effort of your clinic's services.
