New 855 Number Release Date!

As you are most likely aware by now, the release of the 855 toll free number prefix was delayed last week from its expected launch date at the beginning of the month. The good news is that according to the FCC and the DSMI (Database Service Management, Inc.), the official designated toll free number administrator, the launch of 855 numbers is still on for October 9th, 2010 at 12:00 pm ET.

RespOrgs have now had time to implement the recommendations of the FCC in order to avoid any adverse impact to the SMS 800 system due to the massive volume of 855 number searches and reservation transactions that are about to be unleashed. 

For those who have already reserved their 855 numbers, the delay is actually a great sign that their new toll free numbers were a great investment and waiting any longer would have been a big mistake. Whether you reserved 855 numbers to launch your new business with a powerful brand, tapped into powerful 855 toll free numbers to maximize the ROI of upcoming marketing plans, made the move early to defend your already enviable position in your industry, or acquired them purely as an investment, reserving 855 numbers may easily be the best move you have made all year.

For those who have not already reserved 855 numbers, it is not too late to take advantage of this great opportunity. However, if you have been keeping up with the news on the new 855 toll free number prefix, you will have heard that RespOrgs are now being limited to registering only one hundred 855 numbers a day. This limitation means you must move quickly to reserve the numbers you want. But if you act now, your chances of blocking your competitors are much better and you will also be locking in even more value for your new vanity numbers.
