So me and my business partner are discussing the pros and cons of an 0800 number for the business or a local number (or perhaps a collection of different local numbers to suggest national coverage).
We have opposing views so I've chosen to do the most professional thing and ask Sports Maserati
I'm now involved in 3 separate businesses, 1 is totally internet based (Dave and Barney dog food).
The other 2 are the ones that we're discussing, I co-own these with my business partner; one sells a product direct to the end user within a few joining counties, it involves us going out to see them and installing the product. The other is supply-only in which we supply the same product nationally for the consumer to install.
So the question is, given two different suppliers to choose from (b2c) would you be more likely to call:
A) 0800 number
B) 01*** number than wasn't necessarily close to you or one you recognised
C) Wouldn't bother you either way
