Before searching the perfect number for your business, you'll want to ask yourself why you need a 1800 number.
There are two types of 1800 numbers, called "memorable Flash numbers" and "free generic numbers", and both have their benefits. At Telcoworks, we're here to help you compare the two types of numbers so you can make the best decision for your business.
Free generic numbers tend to be favoured over smart numbers by businesses who are simply looking to better manage their communications. These numbers are much cheaper than smart numbers, and can often be acquired for a $0/month lease fee. Their numeric pattern is random, meaning they rarely spell out specific words and are often not as easy to remember as smart numbers. While they don't serve businesses as a marketing strategy, they are a more affordable way to control incoming customer calls.
Memorable Flash numbers are usually used by businesses that want to utilise their 1800 number as a marketing tool. These numbers usually contain memorable patterns or use the keypad on a phone to spell out a specific word that relates to their business. These numbers are more expensive than free pool numbers. However, with the right combination, they can be an effective way to generate more leads as they are easier to remember, meaning more people are likely to call.
If you're looking for high value branding, you'd want to consider a 1800 phone word to reflect your business name or a 1800 phone word to reflect a product or service.
