How Does Live Phone Answering Work?

Telephone answering services are simple to set up and can make your call management process even more seamless. Simply use your dedicated in-dial number to forward calls from your mobile, landline or PBX system. Our operators will then answer the call following a custom script and either take a message, take a booking or transfer the call directly as per your instructions.

Customers call your business phone number at any time of the day or week.

The call is routed to one of our Australian based call centres through your unique in-dial number.

Call is answered by one of our trained operators on your behalf, following a custom script.

The operator acts as an extension of your business. They can take a message, transfer the call directly or take online bookings, depending on your business requirements.

Operators instantly send a message with the call details via SMS and email. You can also review previous calls with our weekly call reporting.
