The price of a receptionist is one of the most important factors to consider when deciding whether to employ a conversational voice AI or an in-house receptionist.

First, let’s take a look at the average price for an in-house receptionist.

The average salary for an in-house receptionist is about $37,000 and often comes with added fees, such as:

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance, costing about $11,000/year
  • Life and disability insurance, costing about $2,000/year
  • 401K’s, retirement and pension plans, costing about $2,000/year
  • Paid sick leave, holidays, and vacations, costing about $5,500/year
  • Commuting reimbursement, costing about $5,000/year
  • Child care subsidy and parental leave, costing about $3,000/year
  • Health and wellness programs, costing about $1,000/year
  • Bonus pay, costing about $2,000/year
  • Company retreats, team bonding events, and employee outings, costing about $4,000/year
  • Free lunch, snacks, and drinks, costing about $3,500/year

Total Cost, Including Salary: $77,000/year

The price may be even higher if your business is located in a highly populated area. In-house receptionists can add to that cost when they inevitably come in late, call in sick, request time off, take personal leaves of absence, go on vacation, and so on.

On the other hand, in one of ClearTalk’s conversational voice AI services, a virtual receptionist can accomplish the same tasks that the in-house receptionist does. Aside from that, you don’t have to pay for any time off, benefits, or other fees.

ClearTalk’s virtual receptionist costs as cheap as $999/month with no hidden or other fees. Your business could save over $25012/year on salary alone, and up to $40000/year in benefits beyond salary payments.

Your business will not only cut costs but also boost productivity and revenue to extraordinary levels. With virtual receptionists handling calls beyond standard business hours, the impact on your operations will be more substantial than you expect. Furthermore, ClearTalk offers chatbots and text bots. SMS answering can be overlooked, but over 98% of customers prefer communicating with businesses through text.

Inbound and outbound virtual receptionists can turn your leads into customers. Businesses need to respond promptly, as 70% of customers prefer a same-day response. Offering round-the-clock support signifies a company’s commitment to delivering prompt assistance when needed. And 73% of their customers point to customer experience as an important factor in their purchasing decisions.

It can be very difficult if you do the work and the administrative tasks at the same time. Knowing that it's already a handful doing the work to keep the business in operation. Businesses constantly face issues that impact their ability to grow or succeed. The most common scenarios that companies use virtual receptionist services for are:

  • My business is growing and my team can’t handle a high volume of calls

Companies frequently encounter challenging scenarios that may require you to have outsourced assistance to resolve the issue. Some of the most common problems are:

  • I can’t keep up with incoming calls and messages from clients

  • I can’t provide customer support 24/7

Managers want to rest and spend time with their family too during after hours.

  • I can’t afford to hire a customer support representative

    Companies, especially small companies have limited budgets and may not be able to hire full-time in-house receptionists since it’s expensive. If customers don’t have the support they need, they are more likely to hire a competitor.
