Local Answering Firm Provides Relief During Weather’s Attack on Doing Business

Businesses can carry on with business as usual without putting their employees in harm's way when they employ Answer Midwest's services.

Alton, IL, February 28, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Many residents in our area and around the country are counting down the days left until spring arrives.

With record-shattering low temperatures, unusually high amounts of snowfall, and a big artic cold that has had its grip on not only the St. Louis region but also a good portion of the nation, it’s no wonder that many are anxious for warm temperatures and sunshine once again.

Throughout the winter season, businesses have had to delay their hours of operations of even close their doors temporarily due to inclement weather. Business owners have been preoccupied with keeping both their employees and their customers safe as the entire country has been pummeled with ice, sleet, and snow.

A local, full-service, live-operator call-handling service is reminding business owners that they don’t have to worry about missing a call if the weather is inclement.

“We never close, no matter what,” said Jen Schulz, Vice President of Answer Midwest. “We are open every single hour of every single day all year and in any sort of weather condition, no questions asked. This allows us to answer the calls that are made at 3 a.m. or in the middle of a blizzard. Our services give our clients a distinct advantage as we keep their customers satisfied and in-the-know while the business might be shut down for any number of unforeseen reasons.”

“Business owners can never predict when a light summer storm can suddenly turn into a dangerous flash flood situation,” Schulz said. “It’s important to be prepared for the worst so you can plan ahead, but business owners can never predict when the unexpected will happen. That’s why we’re here. Our services will ease business owners’ minds and keep their employees safe while we attend to their customers.”
