Does your answering company go through your script?

[Aroldo Villarreal]

I am getting ready to send about 3,000 letters a month for the next 6 months but still work a full time job, meaning I will miss calls. So my solution is to hire an answering service. They seem to charge anywhere between $.80-1 per minute. My question is, should I have them run through all my script, thus taking up more minutes, or just collect contact/property info and I call them back? 

Also, I am thinking of going with AnswerConnect since they offered me 2 months free with freedom to change after 90 days. I wanted to find a VA that worked in the Phillipines or something, but couldn't find out if there was a way to forward my calls to them and also they be able to call back. Any thoughts? I just don't know if they'll build good rapport as I usually do. But then again, you can't possibly do everything yourself and expect to grow a business.

I'm going to be using www.yellowletters.com and have heard of others like click2mail, any preference in your end?
