It’s the start of the new school year at colleges and universities, and that means more phone calls. Students will have questions about dorm assignments, enrollment status, tuition assistance, and schedule changes. Voice Link of Columbus can help your team answer the phone.

With students and parents anxious to get answers, they’re not happy if they end up in voicemail waiting for a callback, listening to automated recordings, or holding for the next available person for 45 minutes. They want a live human being. So how can your administrative staff keep up with the volume of phone calls while keeping everyone happy? Virtual receptionists for higher education who are trained like Voice Link can help you get this academic year off to a good start and help you answer the phone calls.

Our team of professional, highly-trained agents can act as your inbound call center answering your calls promptly and answering any questions students, potential students, and parents might have about your educational institution. Here are some of the benefits of hiring Voice Link as your live answering service.
