Answering Service for Emergencies

[Daniel Denning]

I'm purchasing my first STR in Myrtle Beach and am trying to figure out handling times when guests need me and I'm unavailable. I work another job full-time and travel between PST and EST, so there will definitely be times I can't handle emergency requests. Does anyone use an answering service to handle phone calls, or do people typically just drive communication through the apps? I'm doing my best to streamline the process since I'm managing the property myself from Atlanta, but I don't want to run into situations where my guests really need me and can't contact me.
