Why not make life a little easier on yourself with a virtual receptionist and on-the-go app? Posh offers a live answering service that is designed to make your life easier. This blog details all the ways that a Posh virtual receptionist and the <a href=\"https:\/\/posh.com\/en-ca\/app\/\">Posh app<\/a> can do that. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ease Your Week with Virtual Receptionist<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you work with a virtual receptionist, your week gets a whole lot easier. Instead of being responsible for all of your call answering, appointment booking, and contact information gathering, you can rely on a knowledgeable virtual receptionist to take care of it for you. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Call Handling<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without a <a href=\"https:\/\/posh.com\/en-ca\/blog\/how-does-a-virtual-receptionist-work\/\" rel=\"noopener\">live answering service<\/a>, your day is constantly interrupted by callers looking for business information. This can be frustrating\u2014particularly when the call wasn\u2019t meant for you. With consistent interruptions, your productivity can suffer and so can your customer relationships. Instead of taking it all on by yourself, work with a virtual receptionist. They can screen your calls and only forward important callers. Now, you can stay on task and remain productive.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scheduling Appointments<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be a tedious part of your job to schedule appointments with customers or clients; however, it is also a necessary part of your job. Instead of coordinating your appointments on your own, why not rely on an answering service? Now, you can come into your office with an already determined schedule\u2014completely set up. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qualifying Leads <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes calls come in that aren\u2019t an advantageous use of your time. Instead of spending time determining that on your own, make your week easier with a business phone answering service. These receptionists are able to qualify leads for you, only sending you ones that are worth your time and effort.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Integrate into Your Software <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Worried about a virtual answering service integrating into your existing protocol? Don\u2019t be! A truly worthwhile live call answering service will be able to <a href=\"https:\/\/posh.com\/en-ca\/integrations\/\">integrate<\/a> into your existing software and processes. This includes capturing client information and placing them into your CRM. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">24\/7 Live Answering<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While your business is closed, take the initiative to ensure your customers are heard with a 24 hour answering service. That way, no matter when they call your clients are greeted and helped by a friendly virtual receptionist. Their needs will never go unnoticed and your business will maintain a seamless customer experience. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ease Your Week with Virtual Receptionist App<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, your week just got a whole lot easier with a virtual receptionist; but are you ready to make it even better? Why not try an after-hours phone answering service near you that utilizes an app? With a <a href=\"https:\/\/posh.com\/en-ca\/app\/\">virtual receptionist app<\/a>, you can increase efficiency and address your business needs on the go. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set Your Status<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the middle of an important meeting? Working off-site for the day? Set your availability status with the app. Now, you can adjust when you\u2019re available to take calls, select the people who can call you, schedule your availability status, and even include specific instructions for your virtual receptionist to follow. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Call Forwarding<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to setting your availability status, take the extra mile and manage your call forwarding. If you\u2019re busy and want your virtual receptionist to answer, just switch call forwarding on. Now all calls will go straight to your receptionist who is ready to answer your customers\u2019 questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Messaging<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re unavailable your virtual receptionist will take a detailed message per your protocol and send you all the details. This detailed account of all your calls allows you to stay on top of your business and review calls at a later time. Or, you can forward it to your management system where all of the information will be captured.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep Your Information Private<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Worried about clients knowing your personal telephone number? Don\u2019t be. When you call or text from the Posh app and your clients will never know your personal information. Callers will only see your business number; allowing you to keep your information private while still utilizing your personal device.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assist<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are only so many hours in a day and you are only a single person. Use your virtual receptionist by sending a message with Assist in the Posh app. Send a message to your Posh receptionist and let them know what you need. They can update information on an account, follow up with a contact, or make a call out on your behalf. The possibilities are endless.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Posh &#8211; A 24 Hour Answering Service<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking for an after hours virtual receptionist near you? <a href=\"https:\/\/posh.com\/en-ca\/contact\/\">Posh offers 24 hour answering<\/a> designed to fit your business needs.
