But 855 isn’t as well known
Someone said that 855 numbers aren’t as well known or recognized yet so they weren’t sure if it was worth it. I think the question you have to ask yourself is would the 866 be worth it? Because you can’t wait until it’s well known to request it. If you wait until 855 numbers are well known, you certainly won’t be able to get anything nearly as good as you can now!
Your timing is great!
So don’t look at the fact that it’s not as well known as a bad thing. It’s not as well known for a very simple reason, that it hasn’t even started yet. They come out October 2nd! But it’s not that hard to know whether they’ll be used or accepted. There are a lot fewer of the other toll free area codes available today than when any other area code came out except 888. There has never been a toll free area code that wasn’t ultimately known by the general public to be toll free.
What’s the worst that happens, you have to use the words Toll Free in conjuction with the number for a little while. If it helps you get the right message, it’s clearly worth it in the long run. If you have a short term project that’s going to end, I can see that it might not be appropriate. But if you’re in this for the long term and you expect your business or project to last, which is why you’re working so hard to make it work, then I think you’re at the right time, the ground floor in a very easy bet.
It’s hard to predict the future in many things, but if you look at the track record of other toll free numbers 855 is much more of a safe bet than a long shot. And we’re not auctioning off 855 numbers or Gouging and charging hundreds or thousands of dollars for 855 numbers either (as most other vanity number businesses are!) so you really don’t have that much to lose.
You still have to be a little creative to increase your odds of success, but we’ll definitely help you get whatever 855 numbers you need at 855numbers.com.
