Another Myth About Vanity 800 Numbers

Myth:
My Business is Locally Based.  I Don’t
Need a Vantiy 800 Number.

We
understand local (we’re headquartered in Vermont
after all!) – buying local and supporting local businesses is good!  But, if
your clients advertise their local businesses by listing only a local phone
number, they may be missing business.

FACT:
When given a choice, 58% of consumers prefer to dial a vanity 800 number vs. a
numeric local number in order to reach a local business.

Don’t take our word for it – listen to one of our locally-based
customers…

“Every
day, 1-800-ROOF-PRO reinforces the credibility and professionalism of our
company when people see the number on our vehicles and signs. And, it is more
memorable than the local number we were using before.”

Knowing
that consumers more easily recall vanity 800 numbers, and the majority of
consumers prefer to contact a local business by dialing a vanity 800 number,
demonstrates that your clients will gain a competitive advantage in their local
markets if they advertise with a vanity 800 number.
