The Free Call Button: the alternative to 800 numbers
TerraSip’s ‘Free Call’ Button is the first toll free VoIP number, a bell
push for homepages. The customer enters his telephone number in a field
on a web page and then clicks the button. This triggers a return call
from the provider to the customer. As with a normal freecall number there
is no charge to the customer and the provider only has to pay the usual
cheap TerraSip VoIP rate.
This is how it works: Register as a TerraSip user, log in to your account
and download the Free Call Button which you will find in your member space.
The high spot: Using VoIP without having it!
The Free Call Button has a call forwarding function. So it is possible to receive an incoming call not only on a Sip account but also on any landline or mobile telephone connection. And even the extra cost of forwarding is only charged at cheap internet telephony rates.
Individual phone extensions or departments within a company can be reached on their own Free Call Button.
A great side-effect of this technology is that firewall problems cannot arise.
Providing website visitors and future customers with a service by which
they can phone in for free is a great way to improve a company's image
and increase sales. The company carries the cost of the call - this promotional
technique has become an essential part of many companies' marketing strategy
because they can see it as a customer friendly way to achieve significantly
increased turnover.
In addition, in the age of internet telephony Toll Free has become the
cheapest way to gain new customers.
If you would like to find out just how cheap a call from your website
to your Sip connection can be, visit the standard pricelist. As website
operator you only pay the charge for calls to the country from which somebody
calls you.
Example: If a person calls you as a 'call Europe' member from somewhere
in Europe then the call is charged at just 0.014 Euros per minute. That
means you could receive over seventy calls at a cost of only 1 Euro per
day !!!
Is there any other advertising method as effective as that?
Freecall now affordable for small businesses
The Prepaid account gives the provider complete control over the costs
involved: He can decide what to spend monthly on this marketing instrument,
whether 10 Euros or 500. Compared with normal 0800 and 0180 numbers the
provider saves around 90% on average. Especially small and medium sized
businesses which have so far not been able to afford to maintain close
customer contacts in this way can benefit a great deal.
Tailor made solutions can also easily be created for inbound and outbound
Call Center calls. Expensive special numbers can be dispensed with completely
or at least in part. Sip Free is ideal for internationally active companies
because it easily crosses national boundaries. It can be used wherever
internet access is available at the same cost as normal VoIP usage.
