The cost savings of a hosted VoIP telephone system are well known, but there are other
secondary benefits which will help your business become more efficient. Consider the following scenario:
You are due to have a 9am conference call with a new prospect but are stuck in traffic and still 3 miles from the office. Normally this would cause all manner of problems trying to reschedule calls and potentially losing the sale but with a hosted VoIP solution which includes a smartphone app, you can participate in the conference as scheduled without anyone realising you are not at your desk!
The same functionality can be extended to allow you to operate your business from anywhere in the word. Setting a “Follow Me” option on your online VoIP control panel will forward all incoming calls to your mobile for instance, allowing you to be available 24x7x365 and still hold down a life outside work!
Alternatively you could have a virtual extension set up on your hosted VoIP switchboard which corresponds to your mobile number. Rather than giving your mobile number out, customers can call your office number, punch in your extension and be transferred instantly without invading your privacy in the process.
Hosted VoIP systems provide many of the tools which were previously only available as part of an enterprise system, but for a fraction of the cost.
