5 Tips for Choosing an Answering Service

Here are some tips to help you make an educated answering service selection:

  • 1. Features – all answering service providers vary in features offered, due to resource limitations; try to find a provider that suites your specific, customized needs.
  • 2. Referrals – an unbiased opinion is always a welcome tool in the decision-making process. Referrals from current and former clients can be eye-opening and helpful.
  • 3. Superior Staff – strong, dependable staff selection is important for an answering service. Superior staff interactions and response times can make all the difference between an exceptional experience and a poor one.
  • 4. Buy Smart – spending a little more on an answering service may be recommended, depending on your needs. Responsive Answering offers affordable services.
  • 5. Interest in Daily Operations – inquiring about daily operations and locating the source accountable for service/system administration.
