Article Abstract:
Small businesses can greatly improve their effectiveness by ensuring that they use telecommunications facilities to maximum advantage. It is well worth using a call waiting system, for example, as this can play a valuable role in improving customer relations. It is also worth considering investing in a freephone or similar service, especially as competition between telecommunications service providers has greatly reduced the cost of such services. Small businesses may also benefit from local rate call numbers or national rate numbers.
