Your phone line, answered.

The Front desk answers your calls with the greeting you set, in its own voice. It asks your questions, puts callers through to a person, and the details fill in once the call is over.

What happens on a call.

  • Your greeting

    You set the greeting, so you decide how it introduces itself on every call.

  • Its own voice

    The phone agent has its own voice and call settings.

  • Details after the call

    Calls are analysed after they end, so the details fill in once the call is over.

  • Warm transfer

    On a call, the agent can put the caller through to a person on your team.

  • Recordings

    Calls can be recorded, so you can hear what was said.

  • Nobody free

    When nobody can take the call, it says so and offers to take a message or a callback request, which you find in the call's transcript.

Three example calls. Scripted, with fictional callers, to read rather than hear.

Who a call goes to is up to you. When nobody can take it, the agent says so and offers to take a message or ask someone to call back.

  • ExampleAn ordinary enquiry

    It answers, asks your questions, and reads the number back.

    1. Caller

      Do you offer a discount for a second child?

    2. Iris

      Connecting you now. Please stay on the line.

    5. The caller waits on hold while the agent checks that someone can take the call. Nobody is free.

      A call back, please. Tomorrow after four, on 07700 900987.

      Of course. A call back tomorrow after four, on 07700 900987. I have passed that on to the team.

Where the lead goes.

To the CRM or system you connect, as soon as the agent has a way to reach the customer: a phone number or an email. If you prefer, it waits until every detail you mark as required is in.
