08 Numbers | ||
---|---|---|
The 08 numbers are classic 'first contact' numbers, designed to attract new business, create a solidly professional impression, maximise advertising response, and give a 'national presence'. While at first glance 0800 and 0845 numbers may appear expensive to run (as you pay for at least part of the in-coming call costs) they encourage potential customers to make that call, and ensure that you don't spoil a good ad with a bad number. Look on an 08 number as part of your advertising costs, justified by the increased response an 08 number tends to generate. There are several sub-families of 08 numbers, each with their own tariffs and associations.

If you wish customers to extend their call to answer marketing research calls, or to listen to further product promotions they are more likely to do so if they are not worrying how much it is costing them ! |

0207 Central London Numbers | ||
---|---|---|
020-7 numbers (central London numbers) give the impression that you do business from central London - universally recognised as one of the world's leading financial and cultural cities. If you are based abroad, one of these numbers can demonstrate your commitment to the UK market, but from a sales standpoint, they are 'less eager' than 08 numbers. One advantage is that 020-7 numbers can be reached reliably from overseas, whereas some non-UK telecom companies are unable to route calls to 08XX and 07XX numbers. 020-7 numbers are sophisticated and cosmopolitan ... 'we're based in the capital of Britain'.

Personal Numbers | ||
---|---|---|
07 Personal Numbers look like mobile phone numbers, and are recognisably more expensive to call than 08's and 020-7's. As such, they are more suitable for contacting individuals than for sales use, although they make good 'field support' numbers for staff who are 'on call'. 07 numbers Replica Graham Silverstone are free to set up and include a huge amount of free call-forwarding, making them perfect personal contact numbers, and ideal for trialing our advanced messaging services, including dmSwitchboard.
