For Translation Services

Incoming Call...

Client

"Hi, I need a certified Spanish translation of legal documents by Friday. Can you help?"

AI Receptionist

"Yes! We have certified translators available. I can schedule a consultation for tomorrow at 10 AM to review your documents. Does that work?"

✓ Consultation Booked • Tomorrow 10 AM

The Problem

TRANSLATION SERVICES
LOSE CLIENTS DAILY

You're losing clients every day you miss their calls. International prospects call across time zones, no-shows waste your interpreters' time, and your team can't handle the volume. There's a better way.

You Miss Calls Across Time Zones

A client in Tokyo needs urgent document translation and calls at 3 AM your time. They get voicemail. By the time you're awake, they've already hired a competitor who answered immediately.

The Cost
$3,500/project
Lost per missed client

Your Team Is Drowning in Inquiries

While your translator is on a conference call, five more clients call needing quotes. Rush translation requests, interpretation bookings, project updates—you can't be everywhere at once. Clients get frustrated waiting, and you lose contracts.

The Cost
60+ calls/day
Per translation agency

Consultations No-Show and You Lose Them Forever

You clear your schedule, prepare project materials, and wait for the client. They don't show. You send one follow-up email that gets ignored. That's it—they're gone. No second chance, no recovery, just wasted time and another lost contract.
