Live answering services aren’t just for making sure you’re always there for your customers. Our 24/7 services can also help your scheduling and streamline your business processes!
Whether you are looking to update and improve your employee schedules and duties, help remind your customers of their appointments, or simply free up your own time after-hours, live answering services are available whenever you need them, in whatever way you need them!
Let’s focus on these three ways that our call center can help your business clean up. After all, it is spring cleaning season, so let’s spring clean your schedules!
1. Help Your Employee Schedules
Our live answering services can help your employees to not split-task so much, which gives them more time to work at their duties instead of switching gears from phones to customers to in-store work, back to phones, etc.
Did you know that even answering emails only at designated times throughout the day increases efficiency, instead of always answering them right when they come in?
And if this is true for email, then think of how true it is for phone calls as well!
A task that could easily take only 30 minutes might take much longer if it is interrupted one or two times by a phone call. That means your employee would have to stop the task, answer the phone, help the caller, then try to remember what they were doing, what part they were at, and get their mind back into the task again.
Now, think if that happens two, three, or more times! A simple task could easily become drawn out simply because of phone calls!
Help your employees schedule their days better and be more efficient with a live answering service that is always available to take those calls for your employees! We want to be an extension of your team!
2. Help Remind Your Customers of Appointments
If you have a schedule or calendar full of appointments, then we’re sure you’ve experienced this. Sometimes clients forget, get caught up in something else, or simply can’t make the appointment. However, this doesn’t have to ruin your schedule or the day (or week).
Instead of waiting and hoping your clients show up, use our live answering and appointment confirmation services to have us check up with your appointments!
We will remind them, confirm with them, and let you know of their answers or cancellations so you can either refill the spot, or know that your schedule is different.
This can greatly help offices run better and streamline your scheduling process!
3. Free Up Your Own After-Hours Schedule
Even if you aren’t an appointment-based industry, maybe you don’t even have a brick and mortar where your employees are being bombarded with calls that cause them to split-task and become less efficient in their in-store duties. Can you still benefit from cleaning your schedule with our live answering services?
Yes, of course!
Always Answer has personalized options for every industry and business – that’s why it’s right in our name.
We offer after-hours live answering services as well, so you can enjoy your own schedule without getting multiple calls after your posted hours.
Maybe you even want to handle the calls between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM – that’s fine! You can turn on (and off) our service whenever you want. Don’t want calls in the middle of the night, or while you’re out to dinner with your family, just let us know and we’ll pick up the slack – and the calls – until you’re ready again.
And the best part? You only pay for the time our agents are on the phone with your callers, that means you aren’t paying for hours of service you aren’t using, like with the other guys. We like to think of that as a spring cleaning for your budget too!
