    Vonage Broadband Telephone

    I agree with you when it comes to 090 numbers, anyone that offers support on an 090 number (tesco internet support) is just ripping you off. Voip is fashionable at present but isn't as reliable as traditional phone lines and there are quality issues with voip also. We recently had a customer...

    Vonage Broadband Telephone

    Purchasing the number is the easiest way forward if you have a switchboard PBX in place already or if you have a lot of staff that can grab your calls. Our switchboard eliminates the need for a PBX and allows smaller comapnies with busy phone lines to stack their calls without giving clients...

    Vonage Broadband Telephone

    we can hook up 0845 numbers to the system, but that would mean charging a setup fee and monthly rental charge. Our service is free to use because we get a percentage back from the networks on the 0870 per minute revenue so we can handle the running costs of the service without charging...

    Platinum/Gold/Silver Phone Numbers

    It really only works for marketing, and even then i would say only tv marketing would benefit from it, like the constant 118 118 adverts we see. It's really only those types of promotion i would ever consider using one for. Just to have one on your business card makes no sense, i don't remeber...

    Platinum/Gold/Silver Phone Numbers

    Well if anyone would ever want one, we can provide them. Most number ranges are available and the price depends on how memorable the number is. less easy numbers from £50 to the real golden one like 0800 000 0000 for about 10k

    Re Sellers

    The important thing is to keep your sales force motivated and your commision structure should reflect that. My old job would see me take a large percentage of profit made from new business in the first 3 months then it would drop at 6 months and so on. after 12 months my accounts were handed out...

    When does constructive criticism cross the line?

    To be honest, it's more than one. And i agree totally with Bill regarding that fact that multiple criticism means there is a serious problem with your product but i still don't understand why some people tend to rip things to bits when they don't understand them. For example i was arguing...

    Referrals

    oh indeed, and i always remark to them that "i've given it all up as there's more money in telecoms!" I like it as it's a brilliant way to have a quick laugh and share a bit of banter with a prospect or client. If you can relax them and make them enjoy talking to you, then thats half the battle...

    When does constructive criticism cross the line?

    As i'm sure you'll agree, we are all bias towards our products as we have spent time, money and effort on them. I think thats healthy as you should believe 100% in your product, other wise it's never going to sell. Constructive criticism is healthy and good as far as i'm concerned as this...

    Referrals

    referrals are the best things in the world i feel! With our products we find that customers refer us and our products to 1.2 people within 3 weeks of using the product. We even pay our customers that refer cilent to us 10% of the profit that those referrals make us per month, so they just...
