A new enquiry needs a useful answer, whether it arrives by phone, chat, text or social message. Check both the first response and who takes responsibility for the conversation.
Missed calls go to the next business
62% of calls to small businesses weren't answered by a person: 37.8% went to voicemail and 24.3% got no response.
Check your call log during busy periods and after hours. Which missed calls received a useful response, and which still have no owner? A caller who cannot reach you may move on before you see the enquiry.
24/7 Answering Service →
We answer calls around the clock using your approved business information, take details and book people who are ready. A missed call gets a text back. You can limit cover to after hours or overflow.
Slow replies let enquiries go cold
7× Contact a new lead within an hour and you're nearly seven times as likely to qualify it as when you wait even an hour longer. Among businesses that replied within 30 days, the average reply took 42 hours.
Compare enquiry timestamps with the first useful reply across chat, texts and social messages. A social enquiry may arrive without a website visit; it still needs an owner and a next step.
24/7 Chat & DMs →
We answer website chat, texts and Facebook and Instagram DMs around the clock. The Universal Inbox (one place for every call, text and message) keeps each conversation and its history together, with basic inbox setup included.
