Who have they reached? Did they contact the right person and the right business? Should they leave a message? When will you get back to them? Is there a better time for them to call?
6.) Bem-vindo a John Doe. Nosso atendimento telefônico não funciona durante o feriado. Nossos horários de funcionamento podem ser encontrados em nosso site www.johndoe.de. Agradecemos a sua confiança e desejamos à você e seus entes queridos boas festas e um feliz ano novo.
