You're with somebody.
The person already paying you deserves your attention. Stopping every few minutes to answer calls isn't great service.
Give your customers a real person to speak to when you're busy, instead of sending every call to voicemail.
Calls answered. Enquiries handled. Appointments booked. Quote visits arranged. Customers looked after.
You're busy with another customer. We answer instead.
You might be with a customer, delivering training, showing somebody around a house, fitting a kitchen, cutting hair, driving between jobs or simply trying to get some actual work done.
The person already paying you deserves your attention. Stopping every few minutes to answer calls isn't great service.
It could be a new enquiry, an existing customer, somebody wanting an appointment or somebody needing an answer.
That's where Connect comes in. A real person can deal with the call while you carry on doing what you're doing.
Connect isn't about putting another bit of technology between you and your customers.
Calls are answered by real people.
They can understand why somebody is ringing, capture information, answer appropriate questions and help the caller with the next step.
That might mean taking a message. It could also mean arranging an appointment, scheduling a quote visit or helping an existing customer get what they need.
You don't just need somebody saying, "I'll get them to call you back." The more we can sensibly sort during the first conversation, the better.
Give callers a real person to speak to when you're unavailable.
Find out what somebody needs and collect the information you need to follow things up.
Help callers arrange consultations, meetings, appointments or other bookable services.
Particularly useful for trades and businesses where you need to see the job before pricing it.
Deal with straightforward questions about services, opening hours, availability and how things work.
Not every call is a sales opportunity. Existing customers need help too.
Ask useful questions before passing the enquiry over, so you know what you're calling somebody back about.
Where it makes sense, callers can be guided through deposits, payment links or the next payment step.
A helpful answer beats a ringing phone, missed call or generic voicemail message.
Sound like it could take a few interruptions out of your day?
Talk to Me About ConnectIt's for service businesses where stopping what you're doing every time the phone rings isn't practical.
Hair, beauty, barbers, wellbeing and other appointment-based businesses.
Builders, installers, electricians, plumbers and other busy trades.
Take enquiries while you're delivering training, coaching or client sessions.
Estate agents, letting agents, maintenance, cleaning and property services.
Financial advisers, mortgage brokers, consultants and similar businesses.
If missed calls mean missed enquiries or poorer service, it's worth a look.
You don't need a receptionist sitting around all day. You just need somebody there when the phone rings.
See Plans & PricingI'm not interested in replacing people with technology just because we can.
Phone conversations are personal. Sometimes somebody has a simple question. Sometimes they're not quite sure what they need.
Having a human involved makes a big difference.
Connect can also sit alongside other useful digital tools.
That might mean website chat, automated follow-up, booking systems or connecting information to the tools you already use.
The first job is understanding why your customers call and what a useful answer actually looks like.
We look at your calls, enquiries, common questions and the things that currently interrupt your day.
We agree what can be handled, what information needs collecting and when something should come back to you.
Where appropriate, we connect bookings, calendars, follow-up and other tools so things don't stop with the phone call.
Connect should make your business easier to deal with, whether somebody is a new enquiry or already a customer.
Someone interested in working with you can speak to somebody, explain what they need and take a useful next step while the interest is still there.
Existing customers have questions, changes, booking requests and everyday things they need help with too. Better service shouldn't stop once the sale is made.
Start with the level of support your business actually needs.
Human call answering for businesses that want customers to get a helpful response when they're unavailable.
For businesses that want calls to lead into bookings, appointments and more useful next steps.
Not sure which fits? Book a call and we'll work out what you actually need people to be able to handle.
Some customers want to pick up the phone. Others would rather type a quick question on your website. We can build chatbots that answer common questions, capture enquiries and guide people towards the right next step. It doesn't have to be one or the other.
Connect can help once somebody gets in touch. If the website or landing page isn't doing a good job of generating those enquiries in the first place, I can help sort that side as well.
Better call handling, fewer missed enquiries and a better experience for the people trying to do business with you.
