Ok, so you have a website that has a strong call to action...

In this techno savvy digital age when someone lands on your page, likes what they see and wants to engage what happens?  Click on Contact and get the proverbial request info box?  Now they will go somewhere they can talk.  Who answers your phone?  Is it the most well trained professional sales person on your staff or a minimum wage functionary who happens to be on phone duty?  The customer or prospect is taking the time to call; she's focused, interested, paying attention and willing to trust the person who comes on the line.  What does she get? "I'm sorry the person who handles that is at lunch, can I take your name and number and have him call you back?  "NO!"  Before you launch that webpage engage a contact management firm.
