Will an 0845 number really help your business grow?

At the same time you are offering them the chance to call you at a reduced rate at little cost to yourself. The 0845 number really can provide the perfect balance for your company and with calls to your company costing from as little as 1p a minute from anywhere in the United Kingdom, there is absolutely no reason for prospective customers not to call you!
What can an 0845 number do for your small business?
If you're a small business working from home, changing your business number to an 0845 local rate number becomes an ideal tool for your business. Anyone calling the 0845 number is simply re-directed to your usual business/home number which eliminates the need to advertise your home number on your stationary. It automatically provides your business with an image of a large established and well run company. It could also help with the security of your home which could be especially important if you are a female home worker.
Will you have to cancel your current business telephone number?
The new 0845 local rate number will simply be re-directed to your current number. Your existing customers can still call your old number if they wish and the 0845 number can be operated without any disturbance to your current number. It may be advantageous though, to tell your existing customers of your new 0845 number as the calls will all be charged at the lower standard local rate.
