Even in today’s digital age, the telephone remains one of the most crucial primary points of contact between businesses and consumers. Your company may rely on phone calls both to capture new leads and provide support and service. However, high call volumes can reduce the effectiveness of your customer service if wait times are long. You may even miss out on important calls due to unavailability. Should you invest in the technology of an answering service to assist you?

Making a decision about an answering service

answering service technologyTo answer that question, you’ll need to ask yourself several more questions first. Begin with: “How often are calls becoming problematic?” For example, do your staff members have trouble keeping up with demand on the phones? Have you received complaints, or have ratings for your service dropped? Look at the overall level of success you have fielding phone calls.

Next, think about all of the times you are unavailable to answer the phone — nights, weekends, vacations. Should you try to capture calls from clients even when you aren’t available? If you can answer yes to even one of these questions, an answering service offers an ideal alternative to the status quo.
