If you work out of your home like I do, you know that every day is different. You just never know what you’re going to get. This is especially true when you add family members in your workspace to the mix. For this reason alone, if you work out of your home, you should hire the services of a virtual phone answering system. Why? There are dozens of reasons, but let me tell you about the first one that comes to mind: Children answer the phone. One of the most embarrassing moments I’ve had in my current work scenario is when my seven-year-old was home from school for a holiday. I was expecting an important call from a potential client. I had been “courting” this client for weeks, and knew that during this particular conversation a decision was going to be made as to our future working relationship. So just when I took a few seconds to go throw a load of laundry in, I hear my daughter talking excitedly on the phone about her latest birthday gift, which happened to be a glamorous Barbie head, complete with brush, comb and rhinestone clips. She was chattering in detail about the hardships of learning how to braid, when I realized the obvious. Yes, you guessed it. She had answered the phone just when my important client had called. As I scrambled toward the phone and frantically gestured for her to get off, I tried to come up with a plausible explanation for the highly unprofessional exchange. Luckily for me, the client was a mother herself, who completely understood, and I went on to get the gig. I was lucky, because I knew that my home business did not come across as competent and legitimate at that point. It was at that particular moment that I knew I needed help. I turned to the services of FreedomVoice, which provides an array of voice system options to fit any home-based or small business.
