FAQ
Is your Call Handling service right for me?
SMALLER BUSINESS: The reasons why small businesses and sole traders prefer to have their calls answered is because they do not want to lose out on important sales calls as they are busy working in the business. Statistics show that not many people leave messages when they are looking for quotes or advice – they just try elsewhere until somebody picks up the phone – they may not get a definitive answer to their query straight away or a quote, but what they have done is engaged and that is all it takes to secure business later. Also, individuals like accountants, plumbers and electricians like our services because it gives the impression they are a larger business then they are.
LARGER BUSINESS: Larger businesses benefit from our services because we provide a consistent approach across their whole organisation and their team can better spend their time working rather than filtering calls all day. They receive messages almost immediately and they can decide which calls deserve their attention. We have Virtual Receptionist and Call Overflow handling services too if there is a requirement. Once we are integrated, we work seamlessly with existing reception staff to ensure all calls are handled smoothly and correctly and that any calls or messages are put through to the correct person or department.
Is there a Budgeted version I can use?
You will have your calls answered calls in your business name. Depending on your setup, callers can either be put through to you after they have been identified or we can take a detailed message and send to you by email or text message, whatever your preference.
Remember, we have a 2 week Free Trial.
