How Will Your Insurance Answering Service Benefit My Agency?

Improve Your Inbound Sales Lead Capture

Your marketing dollars go further with our 24/7 lead capture service. The best way to lose a lead that calls in after-hours or weekend is to send them to voicemail. Your customers who want quotes will be captured as leads. Your other customers who have questions about catastrophic claims will also be helped by our agents.

We'll make sure to greet the caller professionally and capture their interest. If you'd like we can even send the data directly into your CRM software!

Increase Your Staff Productivity

Chances are your day is jam packed with activities. Sometimes, it's hard to be able focus on important tasks is impossible with the phone ringing.

Worse yet, is needing to interrupt a conversation with a client to answer a call. Using our insurance answering service is the solution. Using call forwarding we can back you up and answer your phones when you need us the most.

Give you team back their focus to write new policies, handle claims and grow the agency. We'll help lower their stress level and increase efficiency.

When Our Insurance Answering Service Might Not be a Great Fit For You

A healthy business relationship is one built upon honesty, and that's what we want to be with you: honest. Our answering service is built to serve many businesses across many industries. There are just some accommodations we cannot meet.

If your needs include having someone virtually replace you, especially for tasks like selling insurance policies, we're transparent in saying that our service wouldn't be ideal for you. Our business model isn't designed to replace an in-house team member who's immersed in your daily operations. For that level of dedicated, business-specific support, we recommend considering hiring a virtual assistant instead of an answering service.

Our Answering Service Acts As Your Switchboard

We can act as your switchboard and route calls according to need or person requested. Besides routing calls, we'll take messages, capture leads, and escalate emergency claims.

  • Warm Transfers: Our agent announces the call to you before connecting them you.
  • Unsupervised Transfer: We transfer the call immediately after determining who the caller needs to.
  • Messaging: Our agents take messages for employees that are unavailable. Most employees enjoy receiving an immediate text or email. Each employee can pick their favorite way to receive messages.
