A virtual phone number is a phone number that is not connected to a physical landline. Using the internet, the landline connects conversations through the web and can be used through landlines, smartphones, computers and more. In this blog, we will cover virtual phone numbers in detail on what benefits they can provide for small businesses or start-ups.
Auto-attendant is an automated phone answering service that can be described as a voiced menu system. They are popular with businesses and are used to navigate incoming calls to specific departments such as sales, complaints and enquiries. Using an auto-attendant can reduce costs by turning a manual task into an automated process, removing the need for an additional operator.
0300 numbers are non-geographic phone numbers that were introduced by Ofcom in 2007. These numbers have been reserved for non-profit organisations, charities and public support organisations. There is typically a cost for ringing a 0300 number, but some telecom providers flag this charge.
Mobile twinning is a term that is used to describe a business phone feature that allows you to connect a mobile phone number to a business landline extension. The idea of this feature is to allow certain employees, such as customer care representatives or salespeople, to be contactable even when working remotely. This gives the employee a flexible working environment, whilst also serving the company from the comfort of their home office.
The term “twinning” comes from the idea of combining both a mobile phone and a business landline, giving your employees the ability to stay on top of inbound leads.
