Business Call Answering Options

You can do your best to get to all of the incoming calls yourself. You can hire staff to answer of of your business calls. Or you can hire a call answering service to take care of your business calls. Between all of these, there are some pros and cons to be aware of.

Hire a Receptionist

Hiring a house employee like a full time office administrator may be an ideal solution in some regards but it’s rarely cost-effective and usually the most expensive option. At just $12 per hour (most are paid much more) you will be paying almost $2500 per month! But the true cost of an employee, as you know, is much higher.  Add in benefits, vacation, a space to work, equipment and all of the HR requirements and your costs could easily reach $5000 or more. All of this and your receptionist may not stick around. What will you do when they leave you?

 

Answer Your Own Calls

Answering all of your business calls yourself when you first start out as an owner is common. It not’s the most ideal form of customer service but you didn’t have that many calls coming in. Once your business gets established though you can quickly become overwhelmed by trying to do everything else and customer service simultaneously. The most effective solution is to outsource what you can to us so you can just do what you do best. Let us handle your customer happiness and you’ll have maximum peace of mind knowing our phone agents have the tools to handle your appointment scheduling, follow up with leads, handle chats, and route calls while you focus on the core work of your business.

Hire a Call Answering Service

There are many telephone answering services and virtual receptionist services available for business owners. Most are typically 50 or more people packed into 2 foot wide cubicles and don’t come close to providing the level of customer care we do. They act and sound like a call center and if they can’t customize to suit your needs those virtual receptionist services are more virtual than receptionist. You have to bend your business to fit their programs, phone systems, and limitations. Some business answering services offer a bit of customization, or they offer some extra perks to help sell you. In the end, a call center company will sound like a call center so if you need professional business answering services we’ll always be the better fit.
