Disaster Recovery / Overflow Call Handling

Standby call capacity that activates during outages, surges, or staffing gaps.

Overview

What we deliver

We provide an on-demand agent pool that takes overflow and disaster recovery calls so your customers always reach a live person.

We run disaster recovery and overflow call handling for B2B teams that cannot afford dropped calls during outages, weather events, or unexpected volume spikes. Our standby pool stays trained on your scripts and tools so we can route traffic to us within minutes when your internal queue hits its threshold. You set the rules: time of day, queue depth, hold time, or a manual switch. During an event, our agents answer in your brand voice, handle common requests, log interactions in your CRM, and escalate urgent issues to your on-call team. After the event, we deliver a handoff report covering call volume, resolution rates, and any items needing follow-up. Between events, we run quarterly fire drills to keep agents current and confirm routing works. This keeps your continuity plan tested rather than theoretical and your customers covered when it matters most.

Client stories

What clients say

"

Our LCP was 4.8 seconds and Google was punishing us for it. They audited the build, dumped two plugins we did not need, moved hero images to a real CDN, and rewrote the critical CSS. LCP came down to 1.6 seconds within three weeks. Bounce rate on the pricing page dropped by a quarter without us touching the copy.

Two weeks before our seed round we still did not have a defensible model. Their fractional CFO rebuilt our three-statement forecast, pressure-tested the assumptions, and walked me through every line before the partner meeting. We closed 1.4M on the terms we wanted. The investor specifically called out how clean the financials looked compared to the last five decks she had seen.
