That’s exactly why we started Upfirst—so businesses can actually afford to answer every call and get back to growing their business. We’ll pick up the calls for you on the first ring, answering FAQs, setting move-in or move-out dates, capturing leads, and providing multilingual service around the clock.

          How would an answering service benefit my moving company?

          Our answering service for movers is designed to handle every call, allowing you to focus on delivering exceptional moving services. You can automate your scheduling process, lead capture, and give your customers a way to always speak to someone, rather than hearing a voicemail. You will also save money compared to hiring an in-house receptionist or other expensive answering services while still answering every single call.

          How much will I save compared to in-house receptionists or other answering services?

          Using our service can significantly reduce your overhead costs by eliminating the need for a full-time receptionist. 

          To put it into perspective, the average salary of a full-time receptionist is $37,000 per year. That doesn’t include things like benefits or overhead. Other answering services are also known to cost $200-$300 per month for a small amount of calls.

          Our service starts at $24.95 per month, working 24/7 and never needing breaks.

          Can your service integrate with my software tools?

          Why is this better than a voicemail?

          A voicemail leaves your customers waiting and wondering if their inquiry will ever be addressed. Our answering service provides immediate, personalized responses, ensuring that every caller feels valued and heard from the first ring. This level of engagement builds trust and drives higher conversion rates.
