While Natalie and her team were working with a group of franchisors, she met with a client who had been with AnswerConnect for several years. This client had founded her franchise business as an individual. Sadly the client had to face a number of personal hurdles which interfered with her work. She spent the entire day answering calls by herself. That led to her missing out on a number of customers, but it also limited time with her family.After signing up to AnswerConnect, the client was able to respond to every call. She began taking more appointments and could respond to clients in her own time. By the time Natalie met the client in person, her franchise had evolved to be one of the fastest-growing franchises in the US.As the world rapidly develops and adapts to new technologies, AnswerConnect will continue to help businesses build connections with their customers. Be it providing 24/7 support, qualifying leads or just greeting callers with a friendly voice, the company ensures clients have the freedom to scale their business and establish real connections with customers.
