How Having an 0800 Number Can Boost Your Sales

14/02/2019 by Thomas Jones

The UK’s leading 0800 number provider, Numbergroup, has recently added a new offering to its virtual numbering service.

It comes about as a result of a short survey they conducted into business problems experience by their customers. It transpires that one of the main headaches of running a business in the UK these days is drumming up new business.

To counteract this dilemma, Numbergroup have come up with a new 0800 Number call package, which they call their LeadGen solution.

Effectively, businesses can now buy an 0800 Number from Numbergroup, who then use their innovative digital marketing and promotional skills to drum up new leads for that customer. The customer pays a small fee for every genuine sales lead they receive.

According to Jody Rhodes, Numbergroup’s Managing Director, customers who have taken up the LeadGen offer have so far been ecstatic with the results.

One customer commented:

We’re a small business, so don’t have the budget to operate a dedicated sales team. When we found about Numbergroup’s LeadGen service, we thought we’d give it a go. There’s no long-term contract so in our view we had nothing to lose. In 4 weeks, we’ve received over 12 genuine sales lead calls. We’ve managed to turn 7 of these into paying clients, which is a massive boost to our business. I’md delighte dwith the service, and just hope it continues to deliver such strongs results for us.

Mobile Phone Customer Confusion About 0800 Number Call Charges

27/06/2018 by Thomas Jones

It has been well documented that, since 1st July 2015, calls to 0800 Numbers from mobile phones are free. In fact there was a huge campaign by Ofcom to publicize this major change in freephone number call pricing via the information site ukcalling.info. Given that the new pricing structure has attracted so much publicity, why then are so many people still baffled what their own mobile operators will charge them for calling 0800 Numbers?

We conducted our own study of Google keyword search volumes in April 2016 (a full 9 months after the price changes were introduced on 1st July 2015) which involved identifying search phrases typed into Google by people clearly unsure whether they will be charged by their mobile network for calling 0800 numbers. Our aim was to highlight mobile operators who had done a poor job of communicating these price changes to their customers.
