Let callers book with Penny in English or Spanish.
A caller can explain a no-heat problem in Spanish and read the address in English. Penny follows the change and keeps the appointment details together. Both languages are included on every phone plan; free website chat supports them too.
14 days of Pro included. No credit card. Spanish is included in every phone plan.
Keep the intake moving when your caller speaks Spanish.
The appointment still needs an address, a reason for the visit, and a time that works. Let the caller give those details in the language they use, so your office can act on the request.
If the greeting and instructions are only in English, a Spanish-speaking caller may need another way to explain the request. The first exchange should establish the language they want to use.
Moving the caller to another line can mean asking for the address and problem again. Keep those details with the request through any handoff.
The person who handles Spanish calls may be away from the desk or off for the evening. Decide how the office wants those calls handled during the gap.
A caller may describe the problem in Spanish and read an address or model name in English. The intake needs to keep its place as the language changes.
Penny asks your trade’s questions in either language.
Penny uses your business information and trade questions in English or Spanish. The caller can choose an open appointment on the same line, and the details stay with the booking.
Phone answering in English and Spanish starts on Starter. The language does not change the minute rate or require a separate add-on. Free website chat supports both languages without phone answering.
Penny reads the caller’s language from their opening sentence and answers in it. There is no menu, no “para español, oprima dos,” and no separate number to remember.
If a caller opens in English and moves into Spanish, or the other way around, Penny follows. The conversation stays in whichever language the customer is using, with no restart and no handoff.
A maintenance request needs the same equipment details, address, and appointment preferences in either language. Penny follows your trade’s intake and your business’s booking permissions.
Penny checks availability and books the appointment onto your calendar in the caller’s language. On Pro the confirmation text goes out in Spanish to a caller who called in Spanish.
Your office receives the caller’s details and a summary in the language of the call. Assign Spanish inquiries to a team member who can review the notes and continue the conversation.
The same rules apply on every call she takes. See how she handles your trade on the industry pages, how she follows up a call that slipped with missed-call text-back, and how she covers nights and weekends as your after-hours answering service.
The appointment questions work in Spanish too.
A Spanish-speaking caller can provide the service address, explain the problem, and choose a time without switching to English for intake. Penny asks the questions your business requires before offering the appointment.
The booking and safety rules stay the same in either language. A free slot must still fit your hours, and a reported hazard still takes priority over collecting booking details. Pro adds text confirmations in the caller’s language.
