How does Conversational work?
You can sign up online and choose the monthly plan that best suits your needs. The company then emails you an online form to better understand what services you want for your business. When your form is completed, Conversational sets up your account to your specifications. You’ll get an email with your assigned telephone number (if you’d rather, you can forward a current business line to Conversational).
Live receptionists help your business with its customer service needs, ideally encouraging company growth. Conversational provides monthly usage reports and lets you change or cancel plans at any time. The company also offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee and a 30-day money-back promise.

Still have questions?
Do we recommend Conversational?
Conversational offers an important service for many business owners. Receptionists do the customer-facing work in so many industries — they can make or break a business. That said, it isn’t always logistically or financially feasible to have an in-house receptionist; this is where Conversational’s team can help. You can get all the benefits of an in-person receptionist at a fraction of the cost. Many clients also use the service to offset to allow their in-house receptionist more time for other duties and for coverage during off hours, such as vacation, sick days and breaks.
