Business Phone Numbers For Small Businesses

However small your company is, one or more business phone numbers are vital to generating income. Many sole-traders combine business mobiles with their home phone numbers, but this is unprofessional. Business phone lines should always be separate from home phone lines, even if the phones themselves are next door to each other.

It is not expensive to set up a dedicated line for your company, but many people do not realise just how flexible this can be. There is a choice of both geographic and non-geographic numbers, meaning you are no longer limited to the area code where you live. Even if you decide to stay with a geographic phone number, it is possible to have a code for a neighbouring area, which is ideal if your company is run from a tiny village near a large city which has a nationally recognisable code.

You can create a Freephone or low-cost number, enabling customers from across the UK to contact you cheaply or for no cost at all. And you can have a memorable number that sticks in the memory of the customer, which are referred to as being golden. Even if you are a sole-trader operating from a home office, you can create a much larger presence, with offices in several prime locations (of course, you have to be sure you can serve customers in those locations first).
