Telephone Numbers are usually the first point of
contact between Customers and Businesses, and you know what they
say...First impressions last!
Most companies spend thousands of pounds per year on print advertising,
be it on vehicles, business cards or even websites. What most
of them fail to realise is that spending that amount of money
pays no return if the target audience cannot remember the telephone
number when looking at it for the first time. I'm sure that you
have found yourself glancing at an advert and finding it interesting
but quickly find out a few days later that you cannot remeber
the contact number.
Recent research has shown that displaying a memorable
phone number prominently on a website and company letterheads
can increase client response rates by up to FIVE times,
so if you are spending money on marketing, it makes sense to
maximise your return by getting a professional looking number.
Having a phone number that your customers will remember easily
has been proven to lead to more repeat orders and more word of
mouth recommendations.
A memorable phone number will give a more lasting impression
of your company image and brand, and as your customers remember
your phone number, they won’t be browsing through the Yellow
Pages looking at your competitors’ ads!
