Phone Systems for Consultants
Consultants provide expert advice to their clients, and it’s important for every consultant to maintain a professional appearance. Whether a consultant is self-employed or works at a consulting firm, a professional communication system is a crucial part of business success. The phone system provides the first impression for any potential client. Call quality and accessibility can spell the difference between winning and losing new business.
Many consultants use cell phones to stay in contact with clients and colleagues while they are traveling. Relying solely on cell phones, or a combination of cell phones and a separate unconnected phone system is inefficient. Voicemails are left in different places, calls can’t be easily transferred, features are limited, and a host of other problems make the experience unprofessional and bad for business.
Why Switch to Vocalocity?
Consultants can benefit greatly from a hosted PBX system. For starters, there is a great deal of flexibility. Consultants who travel can take their phone on the road, plug it in anywhere, and receive calls. Even in another city or office, your business number will reach your IP phone as if you were in the office. This makes working from the road particularly convenient. Whether consulting from a hotel room or in a client’s office, you can receive calls from your company number. Vocalocity’s hosted PBX allows consultants to receive calls from the virtual receptionist phone menu no matter where they are. Colleagues can even transfer calls as if you were down the hall, even if you are across the country.
A hosted PBX system also ties cell phones and business phone numbers together efficiently and conveniently. For consultants, there are a range of features included in every Vocalocity hosted PBX plan that make working and traveling a breeze.
- Call Forwarding enables consultants to forward their business number or extension number to their cell phone.
- Call Flip enables a seamless transfer of a conversation on a desk phone to a cell phone mid-conversation.
- Simultaneous Ring makes both the desk phone and cell phone ring simultaneously.
- Virtual Extensions allow callers to reach a cell phone number from the main company phone menu.
- Voicemail to Email sends an attached mp3 of voicemails to your email inbox, allowing you to listen from your computer. Add Voicemail Transcription, and you’ll have text transcription in the email along with the audio file.
