Many businesses stimulate their market round
clock. Whether sales literature, web sites or advertising, prospects are reached frequently overnight and on weekends.What do you do when your customer is ready to buy and your doors have closed for
day?
Have you experienced a situation when you've called after hours and get an answering machine asking you to call back during business hours, or worse yet, no answering machine at all?
You can only hope that potential customer is
patient type and will keep trying to shove their money under your door. Or will that customer satisfy their need by moving on to
next available supplier?
Few businesses have
budget for staffing and equipping for 24 by 7 live staff or order-taking operation.
A solution frequently used by retailers, contractors or professionals is to utilize a professional live answering service.
Answering services provide
valuable service of a live receptionist available to answer questions, make appointments or take orders.
Long gone are
days when answering services simply took and relayed messages.
