A Shropshire woman has launched a bespoke service that aims to help small businesses in the county increase their sales.

Julie Sheehan, of Shrewsbury, who has over 30 years' experience in professional call handling and data base management, has set up 'Its Your Call' to provide a personalised phone answering service to ensure that enquiries and referrals are not wasted.

Julie commented: "Research shows that around 80% of people do not leave a message when asked to do so by an answer phone, quite often losing a valuable sales opportunity for the company concerned.

"We provide a selective service to monitor calls, as and when needed, only passing on genuine enquiries and thereby dealing with unwanted cold calls, wrong numbers and saving businesses a lot of wasted time and frustration.

"Its Your Call offers a virtual reception service providing full call-divert management and thereby adding a professional image to the company it represents, while at the same time saving the cost of a full time employee.

"Our unique selling point is that clients are only charged for the texts or emails we send to them following a genuine call, after having filtered out the rest. 

"While we are a virtual service, we are focussing our attention on supporting the local business community as we are based in Shrewsbury."
