Available round the clock, without having to answer the phone yourself
Imagine this: a customer calls – outside your office hours, during your lunch break or in the middle of a meeting. Instead of the line going unanswered, our AI telephone assistant picks up within seconds, stating your company name, listens to the enquiry and records it in a structured manner. If the matter becomes more complex, our real reception team takes over automatically and seamlessly. You’ll receive every message straight away on your mobile, via email, WhatsApp or text message, complete with a summary, a call-back request and a priority rating. That’s how AI handles the routine tasks, whilst people take care of what really requires a delicate touch.

Seamless system integration
Call notes, call-back requests and appointments can be automatically transferred to CRM and calendar systems. This ensures that all information remains up to date without any manual effort.
Accurate transcription
After each call, the key details are clearly summarised. This makes it immediately clear who called, what the call was about and whether a call-back is required.
Smart scheduling
Appointments are arranged directly during the conversation and synchronised with existing calendar systems. This reduces the effort involved in coordinating appointments and prevents double bookings.
Secure onboarding of new customers
New enquiries are recorded, assessed and forwarded to the right department straight away. This ensures that no potential customer is lost due to missed calls.
Automated support
Enquiries are also accepted outside business hours. This ensures the company remains contactable without calls being lost to voicemail or put on hold.

Telephone service for businesses: answer every call – without needing your own reception team
A professional telephone service answers incoming calls for your business, assesses the nature of the enquiry and provides you with the relevant information in a format that suits your day-to-day work. Instead of missed calls, frantic call-back loops and lost orders, you’ll enjoy a consistent, professional public image – even when you’re in a meeting, on a building site or travelling. To achieve this, Office Club combines state-of-the-art AI-powered telephony with an experienced reception team that steps in whenever the human touch is crucial.
How the hybrid telephone service works
The process is seamless for your callers and completely transparent for you. If you’re a virtual office or office member at Office Club, you’ll be given a local number with the area code of your choice. Otherwise, you can use your existing business number and forward it to the telephone service. Our AI answers incoming calls in under two seconds in your company’s name, identifies the enquiry and, based on your scripts, decides forwarding and escalation rules, whether to resolve the enquiry itself, book an appointment, take a call-back request, put the call through to you directly, or seamlessly hand the call over to one of our receptionists. All information is immediately sent to your inbox in a structured format – via email, WhatsApp, SMS or directly into your CRM.
The key benefits of a professional telephone service
Constant availability: Calls are answered 24/7/365, even at night, at weekends and on public holidays. No missed enquiries, no lost orders.
Professional image: Callers experience a trained, friendly and consistent welcome in your company’s name – regardless of whether the AI or our team takes over.
Scalability: Whether you receive 5 or 5,000 calls a month, the service adapts accordingly. We handle call peaks without any waiting times.
More focus on your core business: You no longer have to answer every phone call and can concentrate on the work that really generates revenue.
Cost-effectiveness: A hybrid telephone service is significantly cheaper than having your own reception team and more flexible than a traditional call centre.
Self-service with no waiting time
A telephone service that only becomes operational after days of onboarding is often impractical in day-to-day use. With Office Club, you set up your telephone service yourself after booking online – entirely via self-service. You can configure greeting messages, call scenarios, call forwarding rules, multilingual support and CRM integrations in your account in just a few minutes. You can test everything live, make changes at any time and go live straight away. If you need support, our team is on hand – but you won’t need to rely on them. This means you’ll be up and running by the time other providers are still arranging their onboarding appointments.
A smart AI answering machine or a full telephone reception service – the choice is yours
The telephone service doesn’t have to handle every call. You decide for yourself which calls are routed directly to you or your team and when the AI takes over. Familiar contacts and important customers are routed straight to you, whilst unknown numbers are pre-screened by the AI – or the AI only steps in when you’re unable to answer. In this mode, the telephone service works like a smart AI answering machine: instead of a silent voicemail recording, the AI conducts a real conversation, captures the enquiry in a structured way and immediately sends you a summary with a call-back request and priority. No more listening to voicemails, no more guessing what the call was about. From a smart answering machine to a full telephone reception service with a reception team, every level is possible – and can be switched at any time via your account.
Who is the telephone service suitable for?
The telephone service is particularly useful for businesses that need to be regularly available by phone but do not want to, or cannot, maintain their own reception team. Typical target groups include property management companies and estate agents handling hundreds of enquiries per property, tradespeople and caretaker services who cannot answer the phone whilst on site, doctors’ surgeries and physiotherapists with fixed patient appointment times, car dealerships experiencing call peaks around seasonal changes, e-commerce companies experiencing peak periods, law firms, tax advisers and self-employed professionals who wish to project a professional image without having to be constantly available, as well as sales and service teams looking to qualify incoming leads more quickly. Those who already have a virtual office or office space with Office Club also benefit from an inclusive local number with their preferred area code – an advantage that standalone telephone service customers do not have for regulatory reasons. Those who book the telephone service separately can instead forward their existing business number to our system and use the hybrid AI plus reception team just as conveniently.
Telephone service and Virtual Office – the ideal combination
If you already have a Virtual Office, a fixed desk or an office space with Office Club, the telephone service is the logical addition. You get a prestigious business address, a registered address for legal purposes, your own local telephone number with the area code of your choice, and a professional telephone reception service – all from a single provider. This is precisely our structural advantage over traditional call-handling services: with us, you get reception, an address, a local number and hybrid AI all in the same package – without any additional contracts or external service providers.
AI telephone assistant or traditional telephone secretarial service?
Anyone looking for an AI telephone assistant today wants efficiency, immediate availability and low costs. Anyone looking for a traditional telephone secretarial service wants professionalism, empathy and reliability. Our hybrid telephone service bridges this gap: AI for the routine tasks, a real reception team to make the difference. This means you don’t have to choose between efficiency and service quality.
Conclusion
With Office Club’s telephone service, your business remains available round the clock – with a professional reception, hybrid AI for routine tasks, and a real reception team to make the difference – and for Office, Private Desk and Virtual Office members, even including a local number with your chosen area code. Whether as a full telephone reception service, as a preliminary filter for unknown numbers, or as a smart AI answering machine that only steps in when you can’t answer: you decide how much of the service it handles. Hybrid AI ensures immediate call handling and efficiency, whilst our reception team provides the human touch for the calls that really matter. This saves you time, ensures you never miss a job again and conveys a level of professionalism that visibly sets your business apart in the market.
