Just looking for a bit of advice really.
My business is building up nicely but I can't help the feeling that I am losing out by not always answering my phone! I work most evenings & Saturdays but my daytime job is to 3 very noisy children! I won't answer my phone if I am with them as I don't think it sounds professional. They are 4, 3 & 1 so its almost impossible to silence them all & rely on them staying that way!
I've had quite a few instances lately where I will return calls (within a few hrs) to be told they've booked elsewhere!!
What can I do??
My regulars know its best to text for immediate response but obv new clients don't & I appreciate some people want to have a chat!
Any thoughts?
