How Much Does Installing A Virtual Receptionist Cost?

While browsing online for a live answering service you may have noticed the wide range of prices for a virtual receptionist. To make the pricing of services more transparent, Posh has created a quick overview of the cost of a virtual receptionist. This includes the overall cost, what is included in the cost, and how to select the best option for your business.

Cost of Virtual Receptionist

When comparing the cost of a virtual receptionist, it can seem like the prices widely vary depending on the provider. In order to properly compare plans, you will need to understand how virtual receptionist pricing works. Pricing for virtual receptionist services is based on minutes. These minutes are the amount of time a receptionist spends on the phone with your callers or the time spent completing an activity for your account. You then select a plan that aligns with the amount of time you expect a receptionist to spend on your account.

In some cases, prices can be up to $200 a month for 50 receptionist minutes. At Posh, we believe that quality service doesn’t have to be expensive. That’s why our pricing is often half the price of our competitors. We offer exceptional service at an affordable price. Don’t get locked into a high-cost plan with hidden costs, find a provider who offers reasonable prices and professional service. 

What Comes With The Cost?

In addition to looking at price comparisons, it is important to review the services that are included in the monthly cost. With a Posh virtual receptionist, you have access to customized onboarding, an on-the-go app, and all-inclusive services.
