If you're doing some googleing/searching for a few answering services to compare and shop, I'd recommend searching for things like "web call handling" "website order entry services" "order entry answering services" the more specific you get the more likely you'll find what you're looking for and not a keyword stuffing, outsourced to wherever service.

That basically amounts to stuffing your money in your mattress, very poor investor advice but each to their own.

I have a full time job but will volunteer my time, stuffing envelopes, or helping on a worksite just to learn something.
