How to Use Your Non Geographical Number to its Full Advantage
Non Geographical Numbers
The first point for any business is to select the correct non geographical number for your company. At 08 Direct we have a wide range for you to choose from.
If your business experiences high call volumes then it may be worthwhile selecting a
0844 or
0871 number which can earn you up to 7 pence per minute or for premium rate services, a 09 number could earn you up to £1.20 per minute.
If your business needs to attract customers a
freephone 0800 number may be the most suitable. The cost of the call lies with the business but with increased response rates, sales will increase and the cost of the call can be offset against the profit made.
A
0845 offers your customers a local rate call cost with a one-off connection charge of 5 pence per minute.
If you work within the public sector, not for profit organisations and charities then 03 numbers are specifically designed for your benefit and have to be included in mobile networks inclusive minutes.
So, you have chosen your number……….
After selecting your number you can be up and running within 24 hours. Advertise your non geo number on all literature, business cards and websites.
