Time off over the holidays, unplanned closures, or a personal appointment – updating your call script keeps your customers aware of your business’s availability.
Adding a temporary update to your AnswerForce script is very simple. By making this small change you can ensure a consistently high level of customer service for your business.
What are call scripts?
A script is what your receptionist uses to answer your calls and chats. You created your script during your setup call. By making temporary updates, you can ensure people calling get the right information for the right length of time. It’s easy to update a script – you can do it yourself using the AnswerForce app or one of our team can do it for you.
For service businesses with on-call staff, making sure call scripts are up to date also makes sure we are calling out to the right people when an emergency comes in. Even while you’re working with another client or sleeping.
