Posted 2026-05-06Submit a voice sample to be considered
I am looking for a reliable virtual receptionist / lead intake assistant to help answer a light volume of inbound calls for my home services business.
This is a scripted inbound call handling role. The job is to answer calls professionally, ask a short set of qualifying questions, enter the lead into the CRM, and send a brief summary after each call.

Responsibilities
Answer inbound calls in a professional and friendly manner
Follow a short script and ask 8–10 qualifying questions
Collect lead details accurately
Enter lead information into the CRM
Send a short written summary after each call

Call volume is expected to be light at the beginning.
This is not a paid standby role and not paid waiting time.
Compensation will be for active work only, including:
answered inbound calls
lead intake
CRM entry
short written follow-up / summary
Please apply only if you are comfortable with a compensation structure based on actual tasks completed rather than hourly availability alone.
If call volume increases in the future, I may revisit the structure.
