What Is Your Phone Company Really Doing With Your Phone Number? by: blog-editor2 , August 27, 2010 Phone number management is one of the most important parts of running a successful business. Any entrepreneur or manager who has set up a new business or office has no doubt faced the hassles of setting up phone numbers and phone systems. However, problems can go even further than hassles or irritations. While toll free business phone numbers are so important, it can be frustrating when they are also the source of so many headaches. Those companies facing the most issues and having the hardest time fixing them are those using carrier-affiliated RespOrgs for their toll free phone number management. While it is nice to believe that many of the issues or inconveniences you encounter with your toll free phone number management are purely mistakes due to the sheer size of giant telecom companies, many conflicts of interest obviously suggest that some problems may be money motivated. After all, why is it that Independent RespOrgs can make changes in hours that take giant carrier-affiliated RespOrgs a week or more? Perhaps because carrier-affiliated RespOrgs profit directly from carrying your toll free numbers, and they do not offer the multi-carrier arrangements that Independent RespOrgs do to ensure optimal toll free phone number management and up time. Plus there have been more concerns recently that some of the biggest phone giants' conflicts of interest could be extending not only to them selling information but also to routing calls incorrectly and even driving up the cost of your toll free phone number bill. Whether or not these accusations of intentionally mismanaging phone numbers are true, why any company would not want to seek out the absolute best management for such a crucial area of their business is a mystery. Whether you are in the process of acquiring new toll free phone numbers or are just fed up with your current management, take the time to seek out the best option for managing your toll free phone numbers so you know they are in the best hands possible. Then you can focus on growing your corporation instead of babysitting your phone lines.
