Voicemail Services

Combine 24/7 live answering services with interactive voicemail for a completely custom call handling solution.

Take 24/7 live answering service to the next level by combining it with a comprehensive voicemail system that’s tailored to meet callers’ expectations while also meeting business needs.

Increased Productivity

If you haven’t dedicated an in-house team to handle voicemail messaging, then those responsibilities can fall to either the small business owner’s shoulders or an overworked middle manager. When people are forced to take on additional tasks that aren’t related to their job title, and experience, productivity can suffer. Your best people are being pulled away from where they would otherwise shine. Although answering voicemail messages is a crucial part of your business, it’s more productive to make sure that the right, trained people are meeting those needs. If not, your productivity levels will decrease, and your talented employees can quickly begin to feel overwhelmed, and become disengaged with work.
Lower Costs & Overhead

You might think that hiring an in-house person or team to handle voicemail messages is a good solution. Maybe it is, but when you look at the details, it’s probably not optimal. When you hire in-house, you’re looking at fixed costs and increased overhead. During the off-season, slow months, and holidays, you still have to pay that professional their fixed salary. When you outsource crucial voicemail messaging, you don’t have to consider added fixed costs or increasing your overhead. AnswerFirst voicemail services are variable and tailored to your needs. We’re here when you need us, and standing by when you don’t, without adding to your overhead.
Increased Convenience

Our voicemail systems are designed to make it not only convenient for callers but convenient for our clients, too. It’s easy to transfer calls to and from different departments, making messaging procedures easier, and more efficient. Our systems are designed to send business voicemails to whatever devices our clients prefer. Being able to listen to messages quickly enables them to remember scheduled meetings and other important business-related functions better, keeping them informed and up-to-date. We offer clients the ability to change voicemail messages and workflows quickly and easily via our complimentary online web portal, Client Web Access. There’s no need for administrative involvement or in-house receptionist support to tweak, optimize, or make changes in our messaging system.

“I had been with another answering service for twenty years prior to signing up with you. They don’t even hold a candle to you. You are great.”

How Our Voicemail Services Work

Our Voicemail Services are designed to utilize a simple and straightforward process.

Most accounts that utilize our Voicemail Service have our proprietary interactive voicemail system answer their calls on the first ring. Once a call is answered, the caller will hear an announcement. The announcement directs the caller to one of several choices. One of the most popular choices is transferring the caller to one of our experienced Live Operators. Other options include leaving a message in a mailbox or being transferred to a particular extension or number.

If callers are sent to a messaging mailbox, the mailbox can email a .wav file of the voicemail recording. Or, the system can be set up to call or page with a notification of each new message.

When configuring our Voicemail Services to work with our live answering services, there are a variety of unique choices available.

If you don’t think having a live person answer your phones is the right choice for you, or you like the idea of combining voice mail with live answer, AnswerFirst Voicemail Services is the solution for your unique needs.
