10 Ways an Answering Service Can Help Your Maid Service

More Than Cleaning 

As a professional maid service, you know there is so much more to running a successful business than meets the eye. Of course, you have the obvious concerns, such as how to effectively clean a residential or commercial space, ensuring your employees are reliable and hardworking, as well as how to be environmentally conscious when selecting what supplies or products to use; however, the catalyst for making sure your housekeeping business succeeds long term is all in the communication between your company and its clients. 

A Lot to Handle 

It can sometimes prove to be quite the balancing act when you consider how your maid service can run as efficiently as possible when you also have to answer every phone call while running an entire company…especially if you, too, are ever needed to help out at a service site. 

These days, leaving a voicemail is quickly becoming obsolete, as prospective clients are reluctant to wait for a return phone call before considering your competition, who may be quick to answer immediately. Your company should absolutely have someone available to respond to your customers’ needs right away, so what now? 

Your Options 

Hiring a receptionist or front desk employee may, at first glance, seem like a great option for handling calls and scheduling your clients, but there are a few things to consider before choosing to go this route. 

  • A full-time (or even part-time) receptionist or customer service representative undoubtedly requires a lot of extra cash you could put toward paying for supplies growing your company. Instead, you would be spending a lot and potentially: 
  1. paying an extra employee to train your new hire during company hours, or worse, 
  2. taking time out of your busy schedule to train them yourself, 
  3. paying that new hire to learn the job and all it entails, which causes 
  4. great risk in the case that the employee will not be a good fit, leaving you to 
  5. struggle to start the process with a new list of candidates.
