Many Hospitals, Medical Clinics and Physician Practices are turning to non-conventional forms of marketing such as “ON-HOLD” marketing recordings. The recordings will be heard by every patient that contacts your facility and needs to be placed ON-HOLD. You have a captive “ON-HOLD” audience so any information you provide while they are holding is important in building your brand and image! Script Examples Include:
- Web Site Address and Resources
- Mission Statement
- Nursing Services/Physician Assistants/Specialties
- Community Involvement
- Location
- Seasonal Health Tips
- Prescription Refills
- Insurance Accepted
- Vaccines
- Scheduling Appointment Times

Statement #4 (Cold & Flu)Cold and flu season has arrived. Vaccination is the best protection against contracting the flu. Also, here are some tips for you to follow to keep yourself as healthy as possible: Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash when you are finished. Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. If soap and water aren’t available, alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread this way. Try to avoid contact with sick people. Stay home if you are sick and until you are symptom-free for 24 hours. This is to keep from infecting others and spreading the virus further. Flu shots are now available please schedule your appointment today.
