Home improvement remains an essential service for home owners looking to maintain and upgrade their residences. But, what does a 100-year-old company do during busy periods and after-hours when hiring a full-time receptionist (or two or three) is far too costly? They hire Smith.ai's virtual receptionists for outrageously good customer service from friendly, professional agents. Smith.ai's receptionists can record customers' contact information, order details, priority level, and more, send that information into an email, and then create and triage new client "tickets" in your CRM or ticketing system for your in-house team to handle. When phone calls are handled prompty, accurately, and efficiently, it's easier to manage business growth gracefully, without sacrificing your dedication to customer service.
