Personalized Live Receptionist Services That Feel In-House

Based in Walnut Creek, CA, our boutique receptionist model ensures that every caller is greeted by a familiar, friendly voice that truly understands your business. With a dedicated team of just five receptionists assigned to each account, our service is designed to feel like an extension of your own staff—not a call center.

A Personal Approach to Every Call

No two businesses are alike, and neither are their callers. That’s why our team works with you to develop customized call scripts, greetings, and handling procedures. You train us just like you would train an in-house employee—we learn your key team members, your internal processes, and how best to represent your brand.

Answering & Outbound
Our receptionists answer your incoming calls and place outbound calls on your behalf—confirming appointments, delivering updates, or following up with leads—ensuring consistency across every interaction.
Call Screening
We screen and announce calls based on your preferences, so you only take the calls that matter. Our team becomes familiar with your key contacts and routes each caller efficiently and accurately.
Messages & Intake
Capture the details that matter. Our receptionists take accurate, professional messages and collect key caller information—like names, contact details, and service needs—so you're always prepared for the next step.
Appointment Scheduling
We integrate with your calendar to seamlessly schedule appointments, consultations, or callbacks during live calls. This minimizes back-and-forth and ensures your calendar stays full and organized with zero manual effort.
FAQ Responses
We answer your most common questions—like business hours, location, services, or pricing—using responses tailored to your business. This keeps your callers informed and saves your staff valuable time.
Bilingual Services
Our bilingual English/Spanish receptionists ensure clear communication with a broader audience. We help you serve Spanish-speaking callers with ease, accuracy, and professionalism.
After-Hours Call Handling
Callers can be greeted by our AI Receptionist, extended team, or professional voicemail. Daytime receptionists handle business hours, while our after-hours coverage ensures no opportunity is missed—day or night.
Call Insights & Reporting
Track performance with integrated reporting. Log every call in Reliable Response™ CRM to view call volume, trends, and behavior—giving you insight into customer touchpoints and enabling smarter follow-up.
Mobile App Access
Stay connected on the go. The Reliable Response™ mobile app provides real-time access to messages, call logs, and recordings. Make outbound calls from your business number—right from your mobile device—anytime, anywhere.
