What is Order Taking Services and How Do They Work?

Do you know why order taking services is important?

One Missed Call Can Cost You a Big Client.

Let me tell you a simple but powerful truth. A customer is ready to buy. He has questions. He calls.

No one picks up. Then he will not wait. He will move to the next option. You don’t even know you lost the sale.

This happens more often than we think—especially after COVID, when everything went digital. We all became global—customers from the USA, Canada, UK, Dubai—everyone shops any time of day or night. But are we always available?

That’s where Order Taking Call Center Services come in.

At Call2Customers (C2C), we make sure you never miss another sale—whether it comes in the middle of the night from New York or early morning from London. Our job is simple: be available for your customers, take their orders, answer their questions, and close the deal—on your behalf.

Why You Should Care About This Right Now

The business world has changed. Buyers want real-time help. They don’t want to fill long forms, wait for a callback, or talk to chatbots.

They want a human voice. Someone who understands them.

And that’s what order taking services are for.

Whether you’re:

  • A small business owner in Dubai
  • A mid-size company in Canada trying to grow online
  • A UK brand expanding to international markets
  • Or a business in the USA struggling with limited staff

You need to stay available without overloading your team.

C2C helps you do that. We take care of customer calls, collect accurate order details, and send everything to you in real-time. No setup headaches. No software worries. Just peace of mind.

Common Mistakes Businesses Make (And How to Avoid Them)

Mistake #1: Thinking Online Ordering is Enough

It’s not.

Many customers still prefer calling before placing an order. They may want to confirm product availability, delivery time, refund policies, or bulk pricing. If no one answers, you’ve lost them.

Your website alone can’t close every sale. Voice support bridges the trust gap.

Mistake #2: Making Your In-House Team Handle Everything

Your staff is already juggling marketing, accounts, packaging, and delivery.

Adding order calls to this list often creates chaos. Calls get missed. Wrong info is shared. And nobody follows up.

Why not let trained professionals handle this?

At C2C, our agents handle order calls all day. This is their job. They speak clearly, take complete information, and even help with upselling if needed.

Practical Ways to Use Order Taking Services

1. Support Your Campaigns and Offers

Running a festive discount or a flash sale? Connect C2C’s agents with your campaign. We’ll explain the offer to callers, answer doubts, and make sure they complete the order before the deal ends.

2. Be Available 24/7 – Across Time Zones

If you’re in India and your customers are in the USA or UK, time difference becomes a problem. While you’re sleeping, they’re shopping.

With C2C, your phone support is always active. So you never miss out on leads or orders due to time gaps.

3. Add a Personal Touch to Every Call

Customers love feeling heard. Our agents are trained to speak in your brand tone. Whether it’s a formal business or a casual lifestyle brand, we match your energy.

“Hi Mr. David, welcome back! Would you like to repeat your last order?”

Feels personal, right? That’s how trust builds.

Want More Than Just Order Taking? Try These

When you work with C2C, you’re not just getting someone to write down order details. You’re getting a smart extension of your team.

Here are some powerful add-ons you can try:
  • Upselling: We can suggest add-ons or upgrades during the call (only when it makes sense).
  • Multilingual Support: Have customers in Dubai, France, or India? We speak their language.
  • Live Dashboards: Get real-time reports about how many calls came, how many converted, and what customers are saying.
  • Order Confirmations: We can send SMS or emails right after a successful call. It looks professional and builds trust.

Real Example: How One Retail Brand Got Back on Track After COVID

A clothing brand in Dubai had built a strong online presence before COVID. But after the pandemic, sales slowed down.

The owner found that most potential buyers had questions about size, returns, and shipping—but no one was there to answer.

They reached out to Call2Customers.

We set up a team of 4 agents to take calls in Arabic and English, trained them in the product range, and aligned with their brand tone.

After 2 months:

  • Orders via phone increased by 68%
  • Fewer returns (because we guided customers better)
  • Overall customer satisfaction improved

They recovered more than what they were losing—and expanded to serve UK and Saudi customers.

How Order Taking Services Works – Simple and Smooth

Step 1: We Understand Your Business

You send us product details, pricing, common queries, tone of voice, and business hours.

Step 2: Our Team Gets Trained

We don’t jump in blindly. We train our agents with mock calls until they’re confident and aligned with your brand.

Step 3: You Go Live

We start taking calls. Every order is shared with you via your preferred method (email, CRM, API).

Step 4: You Get Reports

You can check how many calls were made, how many converted, what problems customers had, and what improvements are needed.

We follow a systematic and well-documented order flow:

  • Every order is entered into a secure CRM
  • Details are verified and stored
  • Orders are forwarded to your team for processing or dispatch

With skilled staff and state-of-the-art technology, the chance of errors becomes almost zero. This helps in faster delivery, fewer returns, and happy customers.
