What are the Benefits of having an 800 Number?

 Portability - One of the most important benefits of toll free numbers for small businesses is the ability to change the ring-to-number, called portability. If you move your business or your needs change, it’s easy to change the ring-to number, just call your us and at no cost we will switch your service around to suit your needs. Too bad you can’t move your whole business around that easily!Create a professional image – Toll free numbers create a larger & more significant corporate image, even for the smallest home-based business. Most businesses see larger sales volumes and more leads as a result of buying a toll free number. These results often begin to happen right away.Scalability - Another benefit for smaller start-up businesses is that you only pay for the calls you receive. This means that a new or small business with little usage will pay very little for their service and their bills will only increase as their usage and business increases. It’s too bad all your expenses don’t work that way!

Internet services help you fax without a landline

 With cell phones and broadband Internet, more people are dropping traditional phone service. If you’re considering ditching your landline, but you’re worried that you won’t be able to send and receive faxes, Internet options can step up to fill the void.  

Internet fax services have several benefits in addition to not requiring a phone line. You can send or receive faxes anywhere where there’s Internet access. You also have an always-on fax that never runs out of paper or ink.  

Light users appreciate not having to buy any special equipment. And heavy users can save on the cost of ink and paper. Additionally, electronic faxes are easy to manage. You also don’t need to worry about other people viewing them.  

Most allow you to send a fax via e-mail to a fax machine. You type the recipient’s fax number in the To: field, followed by the service’s domain name. The body of the message is sent as a cover page. Attached files are sent as the fax documents.  

Some services also allow you to fax from the Web. Once you log in, you upload your files and click send. Internet fax services accept a wide variety of document types. At a minimum, expect them to handle Microsoft Word and Excel as well as popular picture formats.  

Net fax services run the gamut on price, so you’ll need to choose a plan tailored to your needs. You’ll need a calculator, too; the myriad plans can be confusing.
