The advantages of selecting a local vanity phone number
1. Inspire trust in your Business - Research has shown that consumers often feel more comfortable calling a business that has a local phone number because they believe a local business is more likely to provide personalized service. For example, a real estate agent with a local area code may be more attractive to prospects because their business number indicates an understanding of local nuances. Use a local number to reinforce that your business is a neighborhood business that prospects and customers can trust.
2. Compete with large companies - If the service your company offers would benefit from appearing as a neighborhood business, choosing a local phone number can give you a real edge over any non-local or national competitors.
3. Save money while your business grows - It can be expensive to set up brick and mortar stores in all the locations you want to conduct business in.
