Another option to give your
business that professional edge is to opt for
an 0870 number.
This option has many advantages over just using
a standard geographical number.
Firstly, the number is not region specific -
it identifies your company as being operational
throughout the country, rather than being confined
to one small area.
Secondly, customers know the exact cost of calling
you. From wherever they are in the country,
the call will always be charged at national
rate.
Finally, 0870 numbers have traditionally been
chosen due to the fact that they pay for themselves
- a small amount of revenue is earned from each
incoming call, which can be used to offset call
charges and the quarterly rental fee. However
with Trident Telecom, 0870 numbers can actually
generate more income than they cost, as we do
not charge a quarterly fee and offer twice the
inbound call commission of BT's 0870 numbers.
All this without increasing the amount the customer
is charged to call the number. See the table
below:

Once again, it's clear that Trident Telecom
offers a smarter way to communicate.
