Your Business Communications
Making use of your Telephone line....
Using your Home Phone, Mobile or Second Business line?
Like many of us I have a home phone line and a mobile. I also run a business from home. The question is how do you distinguish between business and personal calls, particularly if you’ve got this line being used by the whole family. You could just give out your mobile number, this then identifies that;
- You are a one man band – (nothing wrong with that! Except you're not always able to answer the phone)
- Some may consider that the call could cost them more than a local call, or even a divert to abroad!
So how can you present your business separate from your home?
Most people's first choice is to go for a second line from BT, however that’s not always an option. Lines in the local villages are not always available, then there’s the additional cost of installation and line rental - which can amount to a tidy sum....
So I went another route and made use of Internet technology, and here’s the first key point. You don’t have to be on the Internet to use it! Although you, or someone else, needs to set it up using it.
So contact us to see what this service could do for you, and experience for yourself just how telephoning with Voice Over Internet Protocol – VOIP for short can be of benefit for you and your business. The very basic set-up has a multitude of features and will make your business independent of your home phone at very little cost. Typically £3.50 per month at current writing (April 2011)
