Local Resources We Rely On:
It typically takes 3-5 business days from our first call to getting your service live so you never miss a call again.
We're not one of the answering services that offer instant set-ups, and that's for a reason. We've refined our set-up process over the near-100 years that we've been doing this so that we can better understand your needs to better serve your business.
Getting started with us is easy and only takes five steps! You can learn more about our set-up by requesting a quote!
Answering your phones quickly is our top priority.
We answer 80% of calls within 3 rings or less. For the small number of calls that go on hold, we aim to keep the wait time under 60 seconds.
Most of the time, we answer even faster. But the 80% in 3 rings standard is considered the gold standard for the industry. It’s also the benchmark used by third-party evaluators like ATSI and CAM-X to grade the best answering services in the country — and that's why we use it too!
Los Angeles calls are never outsourced. All calls are answered by U.S.-based receptionists who deliver professional, reliable service that reflects your company's values and California's trusted reputation.
We're based in Michigan, but our service supports businesses across the USA, including hundreds in Los Angeles. So, whether your customers are calling from Long Beach, Pasadena, Burbank, Santa Monica, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, or anywhere in California, they'll always receive seamless and professional service with our nationwide answering service.
Yes, you can change your plan at any time.
In fact, we will monitor your usage for the first few months to make sure you aren't spending more than you need to. That level of customer service can only be acquired from a family-owned answering service!
While we serve 99.9% of businesses, we can't fit a few businesses in with our specialized set-up process. However, if you're one of the 99.9% of businesses, that's great news! It means you're receiving an answering service that's actually set up to the needs of your business—we never provide a cookie cutter experience! So, request a quote from us today!
