It’s fact that people communicate differently. You see it every day in business. One person is great on the phone and picks it up eagerly while another wants to screen all calls, and still another likes reaching out on emails first, then following up with a call.
No matter how you and your company handle business communications, a phone system using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) lets your staff handle calls via their preferred method, while callers get a positive user experience as well.
Below are the key ways that VoIP can help you manage call flow to achieve phone communication success.
Flexibility
With a Hosted VoIP phone system, you can choose which type of answering works best for your company and your employees. Some people like to have options and VoIP can fit the bill. Best of all, you can modify it as your business changes.
For example, you can:
- Have a live person answer the phone every time the number rings
- Set up automated answering for all incoming calls
- Choose which calls go to a live person and which calls go into an automated stream
- Forward calls to other offices or even a personal cell phone
- Choose custom options for everyone in the office
