How many lines do you need?
The simple answer: one line for every caller. If you need to handle multiple callers simultaneously then your organization will need multiple lines and you will need as many people to answer as there are callers to answer them. How cost effective would that be? If you have three or four calls coming in at once or within a few minutes and the receptionist is already on the line taking care of a caller you would need another two or three people to answer the other incoming calls.
