You betcha!  Whether you’re sending all calls to us or only the calls you can’t answer in-house, one of the huge benefits of using AnsweringService.com is that we have a whole team of virtual receptionists, so we can handle multiple calls to your business number at the same time.  That means calls you’d usually miss simply due to your line being tied up,  which you may not even realize has been occurring, will be answered.
