3 Tips To Boost Your Toll Free Sales

Posted by Tollfreenumber.ORG  at January 13th, 2014

It’s 2014 and everyone is looking to start over. That means big dreams and a lot of new businesses destined to fail. We’re not trying to crush anyone’s dreams here, it’s just a fact of life. Data shows that over 80% of new businesses fail within their first year. Don’t be a statistic. With these 3 simple tips you’ll boost your company profile and with it your sales.

Tip #1

Get a toll free number! Now this may seem obvious but if we don’t mention it right off of the bat the rest of this blog will make no sense whatsoever. As any marketing advisor will tell you, a toll free number is the least expensive way to boost your company profile short of “knowing somebody.” Unless Brad Pitt himself is using your product on live TV (and who should be so lucky?) you’re going to pay dearly for whatever meager exposure you can get: search engine optimization, public relations, “likes” on Facebook, “plays” on Youtube, etc. In fact, there are very few effective methods to increase your exposure that do not include spending a boatload of cash. However, marketing research has shown that an effective toll free number can boost sales in excess of 50-75% for even the smallest of businesses. No single marketing method delivers the returns that a toll free number does for an investment of what amounts to just cents on the dollar.

Tip #2

Use the toll free effectively! Yes, if you put that toll free number on your business card or website it will work it’s magic anyway but, why do the bare minimum? Why not use that toll free number for all that it’s worth? We’re talking about slapping that baby on billboards, flyers, decals, and more! How about a bumper sticker with your toll free on it? What’s the worst that can happen, you don’t get a sale and you waste 5 cents worth of talk time? 5 cents is just a drop in the bucket compared to the influx of new business you’ll receive due your increased exposure. You don’t have to take our word for it. A cursory search on any search engine will result in a trove of data reinforcing what we’ve been saying for years: A toll free number is an essential marketing tool!

Tip #3

Get a toll free service that suits your needs! We can’t tell you how many businesses go under because they’ve invested in tools and services that they don’t use, let alone need. So when it comes to your business it is imperative that you do the proper research BEFORE you commit to buying anything. There are whole sections of the economy dedicated to nothing but fleecing men and women out of their hard-earned money. Often times these businesses seem completely legitimate when in reality they make their money convincing people that they need something that they don’t. The toll free industry is no different. Fortunes have been made selling cadillac service plans to individuals working out of their garages. Budding entrepreneurs are often hoodwinked into believing that “unlimited” toll free service not only exists but is necessary when the truth of the matter is that the vast majority of start-ups will never exceed 500 minutes of usage per month in their first few months. The result is that much needed capital is diverted to pay hundreds of dollars in service charges instead of being reinvested in the business.

Starting your own business can be a lot of work. Don’t make it any harder than it has to be.
