About us
Our story
Verbatim came to life 25 years ago, born out of the frustration of the lack of a reliable and flexible telephone answering offering for business owners.
Outstanding customer service, that is. At the time I was making a living publishing a number of local business directories. The majority of my time was spent on the phones, selling advertising space.
There was one contact, let’s call him Bob, who was always too busy to pick up his phone. It took a near age to get a message over to him.
Until one day that is, when my call got picked up on the first ring. Not by Bob, though, but a very helpful lady who got to the bottom of my enquiry in minutes.
I presumed Bob had employed an extra pair of hands, but as it turned out, he’d actually outsourced all his calls to an external company.
Immediately I knew this was a line of business I had to pursue.
Here was my chance make a real difference in an area I truly cared about.
Verbatim was born.
Of course, this was back in 1997 when call answering wasn’t the mass market affair it is today.
And we still use bespoke call answering software to this day (though it’s changed a great deal in 20 years).
This is a far cry from the unaccommodating “off the shelf” software used by so many other call answering firms and lets us tailor how we handle calls to our clients’ every need.
- Personal – our close-knit team of thirteen PAs is small enough to really get to know you, your business and each of your regular callers
- Positive –we’re nothing if not cheerful when answering your calls, but never over the top or overfamiliar
- Adaptable – our experienced PAs are used to changing tack and using their initiative to get on the same page as your caller, fast
- Caring – we answer every one of your calls with the same “above and beyond” attitude as we’d answer our own
- Dependable – you can rely on us whenever you’d need us, even at night
- Courteous – good manners drive every conversation, to uphold your reputation and ensure the best chance of securing new business opportunities for you
