What if you don't want your customers to know that you use an answering service?

This is a two way street, if someone calls and says they need to fax something to your office, it will be obvious to them we are a service if we cannot provide your fax number. If they need directions to your office or want to know if you offer a specific type of service, we will again appear to be an answering service if we don’t know the answer to these simple questions.

Our account managers will always address this topic when discussing the set up of your account, so if this is a concern for you, please provide our staff the information we need to make this happen.

There are so many answering services out there, how can I compare apples to apples?

A few key questions can quickly lead to finding the right answering service for your specific needs. First, put a list together of the key functions you need from the service to insure they can meet your specific requirements.

• Do you need 24 hour service?
• Do you need bilingual services?
• What delivery methods do they provide?
• Do they provide web access to your account information and reports?

These are just a few factors in determining if they can provide what you need.

Price is always a factor in any successful business relationship, so pay a lot of attention to this area.

• Do you have to commit to a specified number of minutes or calls?
• If you don’t use all of the minutes or calls, do they rollover or do you lose them?
• Always find out the type of fees they can charge you. Do they bill additional for holidays or for forwarding outside of certain hours?

Answering Service Client Testimonial

"I just had a call patched through and the customer had this to say about her experience with the girl who answered the phone.

'She couldn't be any sweeter. I talk to receptionists all day every day and yours is by far one of the nicest and most helpful I've ever spoken to.'

I just wanted to pass that along. I'm not sure who took the call but figure your records will show that. Anyway, thank you and good job!"
