Our service is used, as an overflow/relief by many businesses, new are 2 examples below of sample customers/scenarios.
Professionals: The Solicitor
Imagine you have decided to put an end to your marriage. You call the first solicitor, she is highly recommended, a one woman band, the calls ring out (and no response comes). A few days later you call a 2nd solicitor, just as highly recommended, a family practice. But you get a voicemail and no response to the couple you leave, you even call to their office but no one was there. You call a 3rd solicitor not as highly recommended but the call is answered, by one of our experienced Personal Assistants.
Our Personal Assistant, Mary takes your details noting it is best to call you before 1pm as the kids are in a camp this week. Mary says the solicitor in the firm, Angela whom deals with Family Law cases, will call you back as soon as possible. The following day Angela calls you at 11.30am, ready to get the ball rolling for you in relation to separation/divorce. A week later the receptionist from the 2nd practice calls you. With some vague excuse as to why your calls were missed, wondering if you would like to arrange a meeting. You don’t you have already spoken to Angela twice, and have a meeting arranged.
Tradespeople: The Plumber
Imagine you have a plumbing issue in your house. You call the first plumber, he is highly recommended, you know his family (kind of!), the calls ring out (and no response comes), you try a few times. The days pass and you call a 2nd plumber, just as highly recommended, but you get a voicemail. All you seem to get is voicemail having made a few calls. You really just want a timeframe on this now, it isn’t the biggest or most urgent job. You call a 3rd plumber not as highly recommended but the call is answered, by one of our experienced Personal Assistants. Jane, she advises you that currently we are unavailable for that type of work, in the short term but would be available in 6 weeks.
Then you ring the 4th “plumber”, this guy is a bit of a handyman rather than a plumber but he is available. He comes out “fixes” the issue and the problem persists, and then as the weeks pass actually gets worse. When you eventually decide to go at the issue again, whom do you call? The 3rd plumber! Why? Because he appreciated your business, winning on call experience.
