How To Increase The Chances A Prospect Contacts You By 50%
Do You Really Need a Toll-Free Number for Your Business? The
answer is YES! If you run a home business, whether it's a direct
sales business, a part-time venture, or if you work full-time
from home, if you don't have a toll-free number, you could be
leaving money on the table.
Studies show that a potential client is 50% more likely to
contact a business who has a toll-free number. Marketing via the
internet draws potential clients from all over the globe. That's
what makes the internet such a powerful money-making vessel.
A lot of businesses just starting out try to cut corners and may
assume that a toll-free number is too expensive. This could not
be farther from the truth. These days, you don't have to spend a
fortune for toll-free service.
When I started my business, I found out about a very reasonable
toll-free service provider called Kall8. With Kall8, there is
only a $2.00 set up fee. You get to choose your phone number
from a list of available numbers. Once you do this, there is a
low $2.00/month base charge and 6.9 cents per minute. You will
have instant access and can set up your account the way you
want. They offer tons of services such as:
Instant Activation
Secure Web Account Management
Detailed Call Reporting
Interactive Voice Response
Custom Call Routing
Voicemail
Caller ID
Conferencing
Inbound Fax
These are only a few of the many features included in the flat
$2.00/month fee. With the custom call routing feature, I have my
calls set up to go directly to my cell phone so that I can still
receive my business calls while I am away from home. When my
cell phone rings, I know it's a business call because it will
show my toll free number, then I can answer it in a professional
way. I have been using Kall8 for over 2 years and never had a
problem with their service. Their competitors charge 5 times
more for less calling features.
Direct sales representatives, work at home moms, new and
experienced internet entrepreneurs can take their business to
new heights with toll-free service. Couldn't your business use a
boost?
