If you are like most professionals and are out of the office a good deal of time, you must get your share of voicemails. I find it a bit tedious to listen to them and write down the info so I don’t forget to follow up.
Here's a solution that I just tried and it is working well. Callwave Solutions is the firm and it is just one example.
When I am out of the office, I forward all of my office calls to my cellphone as that is where this technology kicks in. If I cannot answer the call, it gets forwarded to Callwave and within minutes, I will have an email with all of the details. So far, it has been remarkably accurate at capturing the caller’s name, phone and message content.
I am on the free trial right now, but its not very expensive if it really helps you.
One caveat: Adjust the number of rings before voicemail/this new service picks up so your callers don’t forget how technologically current you are!
