What's with 855 numbers?

by: admin , March 31, 2009

Supposedly the government has been reserving some 855 numbers to be able to deal with the toll-free number shortage. This is meant to help resolve the dwindling supply of 800 numbers. Only the 855 numbers have not been made available yet. When they do, you know Custom Toll Free will do what we can to help clients access these new numbers.

Consumers should harness an 800 without haste. Here are some good reasons to secure an 800 toll-free number:

  • Increased sales and fewer missed calls
  • A great marketing tool
  • Added word-of-mouth referrals
  • A decrease in item returns
  • Ensure vanity number availability

Learn how Custom Toll Free can help secure effective numbers.

800 numbers and notification e-mails
Today, “toll-free” has become a comprehensive service. When a business goes with a service provider or a toll-free company, they can monitor things like usage with call notification emails.

Monitor your toll free number via automatic e-mail notification systems. Many of our clients here at Custom Toll Free decide to go this route. Especially if they want to monitor things such as caller ID and the time of day the call comes through.

Going the toll-free route takes more forethought than simply getting a good vanity number. Let us help you.
