Does anyone make use of a Virtual PA/Telephone message system?
The type where your caller is transferred to someone to take your call, and they relay the message to you by txt/email etc.
Anyone got experiences they can share, and advise of a reputable company they use..
I cant always answer the phone myself be it landline/mobile, so i could well be missing out on those that dont like to leave messages.

Hi
My wife used to work as a telephonist for an answering service like this - she now works with me :D :D
She would recommend the company - they are called Anserve, based in Lincolnshire but they cover the whole of the UK. she used to take a lot of calls for oven cleaning companies etc and txt the leads on.
Tel no is 01652 641100 ask for John Jewitt or Elaine cutsforth. My wifes name is Donna Johnson, if you want to mention she recommended you!

An itemized invoice is supplied each month listing calls forwarded and all relevant numbers. All charges do not include VAT which will be charged at the relevant rate.
You need to get Call Divert set up with your phone provider so that will probably cost - so i will need to find out how much that will cost.
I can lose the mobile number off my leaflets then, and just give out mobile numbers to customers.
I cant always pick up calls via the mobile most times anyway.
