Imagine hiring a professional receptionist for just $0.60 an hour and to boot she’s never late, never complains, and loves her salary.
PRLog - March 19, 2015 - NEW YORK -- Business manager at Barry Weatherspoon says, “It’s not only possible but it has been happening for years, and any business can take advantage of it, that is assuming your receptionist duties are answering phones, scheduling appointments, and other common tasks done by telephone”.
Barry Weatherspoon manages Best Answering Service, which assists companies in hiring remote virtual receptionists at the best market price. Weatherspoon admits that while a live answering service can’t provide tasks like filing papers or physically greeting customers they can pretty much do anything else, including but not limited to scheduling appointments, processing sales orders, and even booking reservations for hotels or handling RSVP services for big events. Many businesses simply require a courteous employee to help them service customers and to avoid missing sales opportunities by answering calls and delivering messages on a timely basis, and this makes for the perfect scenario for someone looking to drastically reduce business costs and improve customer service.
At the end of the day most people would agree it all comes down to getting the service your business needs at the best possible cost and the side by comparisons were certainly pretty compelling.
