Small businesses have been choosing to use non-geographic numbers for years as it gives them a nationwide presence. But how, and why, does using a non-geographic number help you gain the trust of your customers?

So you’re a start-up business based in a small town and you believe your location is hindering your business’ growth, because potential customers don’t think your services can be stretched for use outside your immediate area.

You’ll also gain the benefits of a professional call management package, so every single call your business receives is dealt with in a professional manner. You have many elements to choose from, how you set up your number is up to you. You could simply just opt for a voicemail or you can add call forwarding, call whisper, a welcome message or an IVR.
