Choosing to use a telephone answering service like ours doesn’t necessarily mean you need to use us all of the time, or that we have to take all of your calls. You have more freedom and flexibility than perhaps you realise!
Many of the businesses that use us treat us much like a safety net during their busiest periods or when they’re simply not able to answer calls themselves – this can be for any number of reasons…
- Staff sickness
- Staff holiday
- During a staff meeting
- An expected peak in call volume
- An unexpected peak in call volume
- Extra support during a marketing campaign
- During an office renovation
…to name just a few!
The reason really doesn’t matter, businesses that use our service know that when they need call support, we’re there for them to divert to. It doesn’t matter if they divert to us all day every day, or just sporadically, they know they have full control of when they do and don’t take incoming calls themselves.
The actual act of diverting your calls to us is easier than you might think. You don’t need to call us in advance, or wait for us to get back to you. You don’t have to fill out any complicated forms, or orientate an intimidating looking website to make the changes you need. We know that when you want us to take your calls, you want the change to be fast and easy, that’s why it’s fully in your control. To ensure that this is always the case, we encourage all of our customers to familiarise themselves with how to set up a divert on their phone line and how to ensure that it’s working correctly.
