What Is an Appointment Setting Service?

Hiring this kind of service means that your business has live operators, and not robots, who pick up the phone when customers call. These operators have been professionally trained to handle all types of customer calls.

Who Hires Appointment Answering Services?

 

Any business that takes appointments from customers can benefit greatly from hiring an appointment setting service. This includes but is not limited to medical offices, disaster recovery businesses, contractors, plumbers, and legal firms.

How Can This Service Benefit My Business?

Having a live appointment setting answering service to answer calls offers a multitude of benefits to your business, including the following.

Makes You Available Around the Clock

Your customers aren’t always available to call during normal business hours, and here’s where live answering service really shines. Customers can call at any time, and speak with a live person who can either direct their call, take a message, or set an appointment without making the customer wait.

Makes Your Business Accessible to All

Live appointment scheduling services are also available in Spanish. This has several benefits. Spanish-speaking customers who are able to communicate in their native language can express themselves more easily. As well, when an operator is also fluent in Spanish, your customer can know they are being completely understood and that their concerns are being communicated clearly.

Truly Personal Service That Stands Out

Instead of getting a recording or being forced to leave a voicemail when they call, your customer will benefit from almost-immediate answering from a live person who can empathize with their situation. This can go a long way to comforting a customer, especially if they’re calling in a time of high stress. Your customer will appreciate, remember, and tell others about the personal service they received from you, which can result in more customers.

Higher Efficiency

One of the biggest business benefits of having live answering service is that your staff won’t need to leave its regular tasks to answer calls during busy times. That means they can focus on what they’re best at, which improves office productivity. This service can also organize calls in order of priority, leaving far less work for you to do, which increases your efficiency that much more.

Savings You Can Pass on to Customers

You won’t have to pay any salaries to live answering operators because this service is outsourced. The money you save can be passed along to customers, who will appreciate the extras they get from you.
