My job is to call churches all the time. One thing I have learned with certainty is that nothing is standard! I called five different churches this morning around 10:00am (a fairly standard time of business). Today I am calling to thank them for their work by offering them a dinner and a copy of the book of a speaker from a widely known Christian organization.
- Response #1: I am a fan of your rival school, so I can't come.
- Response #2: Unspecified voicemail (i.e. automated "Hello, leave a message")
- Response #3: Hushed tone, pickup on fourth ring, "I'm sorry we are in a funeral right now, you are going to have to call back"
- Response #4: A tone that says "oh it's you again"... yes, we got your email, no we are not coming... after ackward silence...a polite "I'm sorry"
- Response #5: Long emergency info voicmail followed by a staff directory prompt
My favorite is Response #3 in case you are wondering.
