ATTENTION: Small Business Owners, Virtual Companies, One-Person Operations: A small business owner told us recently that his "problem" was Outgoing Caller ID. Once explained, lots of you can relate! Say you call a client from your home phone number. The client calls back on that number because it was displayed on Caller ID and your 2-yr old answers the phone! One solution is to block Caller ID, another is to operate entirely from the cell phone but neither is ideal. Here's how to solve this issue AND make your company look like a million bucks: get an Auto Attendant (no system required) with extensions that can route anywhere. An Auto Attendant is your "electronic front door", it always shows up for work (in a good mood!) and it can make your small business look incredibly professional. Plus, your outgoing Caller ID can be programmed. You can do this for little as $30.00 per month!
