Improving Appointment Scheduling through Turnkey Receptionists
Hi Dear Readers
My insight for the week,
When I sit down and put pen to paper, or rather fingers to keyboard, I like to take a moment to consider which of my many thoughts to let out onto my screen. There is so much going on in my head and so much that I want to share, however when it comes down to it, I always go with what is in my heart. After all not only am I a brilliant receptionist, but I am also human, believe it or not.
That being said, I have been going through the illness of a loved one recently and I am happy to say that there is a little improvement every single day. It has been extremely taxing trying to juggle staying an amazing receptionist with taking care of my awesome fighter Mother.
I have spoken to more receptionists, Doctors, hospitals, specialists and such in the last couple of weeks than what I care to admit.
Now I don’t tend to complain about phone handling as, well as you might know, I know the struggle. However, there have been more times over the last two weeks or so that I have wanted to pull my hair out on the phone. Being put on hold for what feels like hours at a time, being cut off, being transferred to the wrong department, appointments being booked incorrectly to name a few.
It makes me appreciate what I do even more, I am a brilliant receptionist, and I love working for Turnkey Receptionists.
Being on the receiving end of let’s just say sub-par customer service on more calls than what should be humanely possible had me thinking, why are they not using Turnkey Receptionists, no more missed calls, no more booking errors, no more caller complaints and many more benefits. I realised that not everybody knows what brilliant service we deliver, so let me tell you.
