Think international, be local

Many start-ups and small businesses rely on their customer representatives and sales staff to generate transactions and promote a positive profit—and although that might be a good initial thought, the question thats still remains is this: how will you get the calls to reach those reps in the first place? More importantly, how are you to develop relationships with customers that live on the other side of the world.

The answer is quite simple, actually—forward calls to a virtual number that will reach customers (on the other side of the globe) locally. By purchasing a local number from a specific country, you are able increase local presence appeal. What you gain most, however, is providing a more convenient way for your customers to reach you. They will not only avoid international calling prefixes when dialing out, but also save you a headache knowing that those associated international fees can eluded.

For you it’s even easier. You point that local DID or international toll free number to ring to your landline, mobile, or even IP address, and boom, there you have it—calls from China, Spain, UK, etc. are reaching you with ease. Call forwarding services, such as the ones provided by CallForwarding.com, make appearing local simple. In fact, the smartest way to go about it is to acquire a local or international toll free number for each country you have business interests. This way, your customers from each country can go through the smooth calling experience.

Another important factor to note when obtaining a local DID or international toll free number (or ITFS) is that this call forwarding process does not require any additional hardware, employees, or even office space. Use all your existing resources, because this call forwarding service operates in “the cloud.”
