Need That Extra Edge for Your Business? Engage a Quality Answering Service

Increase revenue.  Enhance client satisfaction.  Strengthen ROI.  No matter what business you  are in, these and a few select others are always near the top of the list of priorities for your organization.  As business owners and managers, we have a lot of responsibilities, and the two main ones are 1. Engaging in the day-to-day operations and  2. Planning and strategizing how to achieve the priorities as noted above.  Although often overlooked, engaging a quality answering service is one of the best ways to get you an edge on both.

Planning & Strategy

Why do many business professionals feel they are always a bit behind on the planning and strategy side?  Because the day-to-day operations eat up the large majority of their time.  Although inbound phone calls are typically vital to business success, they are also one of the biggest disruptions to your day.  By using a customized quality answering service, you can have all inbound calls prioritized, routed and messaged to your unique requirements.  Even for small businesses, this exercise typically saves the owners and manages a few to several hours each week.  The time savings can then be devoted to the planning and strategy necessary to keep you at the top of your game.

Day-to-Day Operations

As an answering service, one of the biggest concerns we get from new prospects is “you just won’t be able to answer the phone the way we do”.   However, after going through our customized call program process, most businesses actually experience an increase in client satisfaction ratings.  Our programs are designed to enhance client and prospect communications, not just simply answer phones.  By obtaining complete messages on a 24/7 basis and routing them to your specifications, the dependence on outdated and inaccurate voice-mail systems is greatly reduced and clients appreciate the fact that every time they call, they are able to speak to a live person.  This ‘enhanced communications’ model reduces fire-drill issues that typically arise for service oriented businesses and helps day-to-day operations run smoothly.

The Extra Edge

There are numerous tools and techniques to help businesses address their top priorities as described at the beginning of this post.  The reason quality answering services are so often overlooked is that many business owners and managers simply don’t realize how significant their return on this small investment can be.  If you have never looked into answering services before or if your current provider isn’t getting you the extra edge you need, please feel free to contact us – we always have a line open!
