The Voicemail Abyss

Voicemails….  Do you ever feel your message is never heard when you leave one?  I know I did, so I started searching for alternatives. “We are an email provider” I said. “Surely we can find a way to resolve voicemails with email.”  That is when I stumbled upon an article from Wistia.com.  A company that used wistia started sending video voicemails to customers and prospects.  I thought this was a great idea, so doing what any marketer would do, I tested it.  I was so excited about the results that I decided to create a flipping cool infographic to show you.
