Benefits of toll free #s for small businesses:

Portability - One of the most important benefits of toll free numbers for small businesses is the ability to change the ring to number, called portability. If you move your business or your needs change, it’s easy to change the ring to number, usually by just calling your carrier at no cost. To bad you can’t move your whole business around that easy…

Larger company image - Toll free numbers create a larger more significant corporate image, even for the smallest home based business. If this is one of your main objectives, take a look at the virtual office services in the Enhanced Services List in our Provider List, because these inexpensive services makes it very easy to create an extremely professional large company image over the phone.

Expanded marketing reach - A local number is ok if you only market locally (see Local Vanity Numbers). But if you want to market outside your local area, a toll free number is practically a necessity for business in the US.  A good vanity number is also one of the easiest things you cndo to give your new startup a successful big company image.

Scalability - Another benefit for smaller start up businesses is that you basically just pay for the usage or calls to your toll free number. This means that a new or small business with little usage will pay very little for their service and their bills will only increase as their usage and business increases. To bad all of your business expenses don’t work like that!

Ease of use, and additional information - They are extremely easy to use and easy to set up. They also provide additional caller information including the callers number even if the caller ID information is blocked as well as additional tracking and measurement capabilities. They also allow you to control and change where the calls go on the fly or automatically without having to reprint your literature or change your Click here to COMMENT on thisadvertising and flexibility is important especially for small businesses that can move faster and change more quickly.

    We at Davis Voice & Data are always speaking to our customers about making them more efficient and saving money. You would be amazed how many companies operate very well, but are in the dark when it comes to voice and data needs. Toll Free Numbers.com will help me greatly in taking the guess work out of helping get an 800 number. This service is incredibly personal and very effective, within minutes our service was fully operational. Thanks Mr. Bill.

          Testimonial 1888 out of 1964

          Thanks for a GREAT level of customer service this morning. In less than five minutes you had located an 800 number with the exact last four numbers 7665 which I was looking for. I only wish I had found your company last April when unfortunately I signed up with a company called Phone People. We recently decided that we didn’t need the voicemail service any more and wanted to transfer our number to another company.

          Sadly, Phone People would not allow me to port the number I got from them last April, stating that since I came to them for my 888 toll free number it was their policy to not allow the number to be ported out of their company. But, on the plus side you were able to find an even better number, an ‘800’ number so even though I have to change my number I’ll come out ahead and will now own my own number so I can’t fall into that trap again.

          I’ll need to do some updating for my new number but the long term benefits far outweigh any negatives. Thanks again for your help. I didn’t realize the difference when I got started and how important it is to own your number but I do now. I would certainly highly recommend your company to anyone who was in the market for toll free numbers. Keep up the great job!

          I just wanted to say how happy I am with Bill Quimby's service and help in first, establishing my 800 #'s and then his assistance in my rolling them over to our phones. I would recommend his business for anyone that is looking to add 800 numbers to their business. He always answered the phone and/or emailed back when I needed him. Customer Service most places in today's day and age is lacking greatly - - but not with Bill Quimby and his company.real estate sales 800 numbers

          Thanks for all your help Bill, you are the only site/source that we have used to get our 800#'s. And that's probably also part of the reason we were able to sell our business recently to AT&T!

          Great service. The ability to instantly plug in my possible vanity numbers and get immediate results and suggestions for alternative names was great. Also, it's nice not getting sales pressure from a live rep. Finally, your service is affordable and easy to use. Thanks for a great experience!
