From reception to scheduling and beyond, we provide a full range of virtual office services to support your business.
Most providers stop at “we answer your calls” and leave it there. It’s a vague promise that doesn’t tell you much.
To clarify whether our service will actually hold up on a Tuesday afternoon with four callers stacked up, all wanting the same appointment slot, here’s what really happens:
Either through a new number we set up for you, or your existing number diverted across. You decide when that divert switches on. Some businesses run it around the clock, others only utilise it when the front desk is at lunch or someone’s away from their desk
Not “answering service.” Not a recorded greeting. Not a bot. We answer using your business name, in the way you’d say it yourself, with a greeting you’ve approved. Callers won’t be able to tell the difference between us and someone sitting in your office.
Before we ever take a call, we sit down with you and map out how the common ones should go. What would you like us to ask a new patient? How should we discuss pricing? Which enquiries get put straight through and which get a message taken? We’ll even know which callers should never be left on hold. It’s your script, and it’s never locked in so you can change it whenever your business needs to.
Wherever you’ve given us the access, we’re booking, moving and cancelling appointments directly in your calendar or practice software while the caller’s still on the line. Our receptionists aren’t typing up an email for someone to deal with later. We plug straight into the systems you already use, so nothing sits in a queue waiting for a human to action it twice.
This is the bit that’s genuinely hard to replicate with automation. When someone calls upset, confused, or asking something that’s never come up in the script, a person picks up on that and handles it properly. This is the real reason a human answers your phone instead of AI or an automated bot: it’s people talking to people, not people talking to a system.
Every call gets logged and shared straight back to your business so you can see exactly what happened on any call, any time, without having to ask us for it. Said simply, we work for you.
Here’s a number worth sitting with: roughly 8 in 10 callers won’t bother leaving a voicemail if nobody picks up. They just call the next business on the list. That’s not a missed call, it’s a missed customer, handed straight to a competitor.
SOI closes that gap. Partner with our Perth virtual receptionists and you get a dedicated team on your calls and your calendar, freeing you up to actually run the business instead of chasing the phone.
Finding and keeping good reception staff is genuinely hard, and the hours spent recruiting, training and managing them are hours not spent growing your business. Hand the phone over to SOI and get that time back.
Customers judge a business fast, often before they’ve even walked in the door. Our Perth receptionists speak with your clients on your behalf, so that first call sets the right tone every time.
Full-time wages, super, leave and the equipment that comes with an in-house hire adds up fast. SOI gives you the same coverage without the overhead.
A dedicated receptionist manages and prioritises your calls so you’re not interrupted every ten minutes. This leaves you free to focus on the work only you can do.
25 years in, and our operators are trained specifically across Allied Health, Accounting, Real Estate, Medical and Engineering reception. We’re not generalists reading from a single script, rather a team that actually understands your sector.
A conversation about your call types, your busy periods, how you want different callers handled and what’s off limits. This is where we collaborate to build the script.
A new number is provisioned or yours is diverted to our virtual receptionists in Perth. We also gain access to your booking software and any additional systems you require. This is controlled by you, on your end, and can be adjusted whenever necessary.
In your name, to your script, with bookings landing in your diary. Your client success manager checks in and will make adjustments as you go.
Businesses SOI’s Virtual Receptionists in Perth Answer For
Our virtual receptionist service is a practical, cost-effective, and hassle-free solution tailored to manage your leads and opportunities. We help bring in new business and create lasting relationships with your valued customers.
Our virtual receptionists specialise in appointment scheduling services, offering tailored solutions that are particularly beneficial for Allied Health and other health professionals.
We manage all your virtual bookings, reservations, and message-taking, prioritising them so you can address urgent matters promptly and maintain strong relationships with your clients.
Our team of dedicated professionals work across a handful of sectors properly rather than all of them poorly.
We believe in the value that comes with a well-educated receptionist, whether offering useful information to clients and assisting with concerns. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
A cancellation on a fully booked day doesn’t just cost you one appointment, it leaves a treatment slot empty unless someone works the waitlist fast, ideally within the hour, before that patient books elsewhere. Our operators take the cancellation, go straight to your waitlist, and fill the slot. And for patients who are anxious about a first physio appointment, not sure what to expect, worried about pain, unsure if they even need a referral, they’re talking to a person who’ll slow down and talk them through it.
Your phones don’t ring at a steady pace all year, they go quiet, then hit hard around tax time and every BAS deadline, exactly when your team is buried and least able to pick up. That’s when our support scales up to match. Outside of those peaks, we’re still there catching the calls that come in while your staff are heads-down in client meetings. Less pressure on your team, more time for them to focus on the clients actually in front of them.
One new client enquiry can be worth more to a practice than the cost of a service answering your calls year-round, but only if it’s handled properly. That first call needs to land professionally, and requires an operator who understands confidentiality as a given, not something you have to spell out. We take proper intake on every call and flag anything sensitive straight to you, rather than just leaving it sitting as a message.
Enquiries in trades and property tend to land in clusters, often from callers who are on a job site, between appointments, or driving. If nobody answers, they just call the next name on their list. Our operators qualify the enquiry on the spot, pull out exactly what your team needs to act on it, and pass it through to the right person while that caller is still switched on and interested.
Don’t just take our word, hear what our valued customers are saying about our services.

Your customer calls your business on a number provided by us, or your existing number diverted to us.
Yes. We can provision an 08 number, or divert your existing number to us so your callers keep dialling what they’ve always dialled.
Not unless you want them to. We answer in your business name using your greeting. Most callers assume they’ve reached your front desk, because functionally they have.
Book, reschedule and cancel, directly in your system where you’ve given us access. Message taking is the fallback, not the service.
A person recognises it and handles it. Depending on your instructions we’ll either work through it or escalate to you straight away. That’s the main service you’re paying for.
AI is faster and cheaper on simple, repetitive calls.
It struggles with complexity, emotion and anything off script, and it can’t reliably tell when it has misunderstood someone. Most of our clients use a person for the calls that carry value.
No.
We work inside what you already use so no internal adjustments need to be made before we begin working together.
No.
You are able to withdraw from our service at any time, whether it’s due to a change in your business, or sometimes where we’re not the right fit.
