A Good Fit for Business Owners

What every business/entrepreneur strives for, is to reach customers at all times without delays affiliated to dropped calls. More so, in hard times like the current COVID19 Pandemic, reaching customers while they keep home requires a dedicated Phone to keep them engaged at all times.

So, with the ability to set a toll free 0800 series function for the Fixed Line SIMcard, it’s an advantage for customers to contact a business at all times without worrying about carrier charges.

Likely, with 6 months of free calls, it’s easier for a business to keep its communication lines open, and continue achieving its set goals even under a Lockdown environment.

More so, it is hard for Smartphones to keep up with Business calls, but easier for a Fixed Line (Landline) themed phone to maintain a horizontal trend.
