Answering Service- who uses them

[wintergreen82]

How many of you use an answering service? I am debating between this or a secretary. I do not like having to miss calls because I am with a customer or I did not hear my phone ring. I want to make sure somebody is on the other line.

I looked into it. The price was just too much for my liking - and I didn't really want that kind of service.

I went the secretary route (actually I call him an office manager - secretary doesn't sound right for a guy)

He does the phones, billing, scheduling, etc, etc,. If you have the business, that is definitely the way to go.
