Traditional Phone conversations are still one of the more popular methods when customers wish to query something\u00a0before using or buying a product\/service.<br \/>\nWith click to call and click to connect\u00a0from web sites or social media business pages including Facebook, Instagram and Google, means that offering local support when you and your team are moving across the globe is challenging.<br \/>\n<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Solutions<\/span><br \/>\nThere are many global voice platforms available including Skype and Sonetel which can help with\u00a0an International presence and provide their customers with the a structure to do so.<br \/>\nSkype was originally built for calls between users and appealed more to the general public, as the calls are free for voice and the same for video calls to other Skype users.<br \/>\nSkype for business has been created to offer more support towards business that may not be fixed in any location and offers some support for multiple locations across the globe \u2013 albeit expensive for packages and individual calls is still a step in the right direction.<br \/>\nSonetel offers international phone numbers in 50+ countries starting at $0.89c and continue to grow\u00a0by the day\u00a0selling individual numbers to Entrepreneurs around the world. Calls can also be slightly more expensive and they do also offer some functionality for routing calls to various destinations via intuitive features.<br \/>\n<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">VoiceRules<\/span><br \/>\nAnother popular alternative in this space is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.voicerules.com\/\">VoiceRules<\/a><br \/>\nVoiceRules is here\u00a0to fill a gap in the market. This gap has occurred through the growth of Location Independent setups.<br \/>\nThe VoiceRules platform is a low cost Professional Call Management Suite that offers a variety of features all accessible through any browser or tablet. \u00a0No software needs to be local to the user to be able to use its features, in fact any device can\u00a0be used for managing, monitoring and recording calls for individuals or small remote teams. It can even be used for personal calls from Family and Friends when on the move.<br \/>\nWith development around WebRTC VoiceRules have enabled the user to have a fully functional phone platform at their fingertips. Users can not only buy International local Phone Numbers around the world for short term or long term use, but also empower the its customers to set those numbers up with ease to manage how calls are routed to Team Members wherever they may be in the world.<br \/>\nCustomers can dial Local, National or Toll-free numbers so that they feel as though a business is a local, but in fact these businesses\u00a0may not even have an office and may also be constantly moving across popular\u00a0Work Hubs in South East Asia, for example.<br \/>\nVoiceRules has also developed a browser based telephone dialer. This digital handset can be used when dialling customers. Local numbers to those customers can be displayed on their handset when they receive a call. In turn when companies have inbound calls to themselves or their teams, these calls can be routed to appropriate\u00a0users on local mobiles so that calls are never missed.<br \/>\nVoiceRules has also built an Analytics module which visually displays data to the user so that users can manage projects and see where calls are coming from, to who and can manage the results.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Amongst a whole bunch of other useful features and a development program introducing further solutions\u00a0in this space, VoiceRules is seeing some incredible growth and even after its first week of launch has already accumulated 100+ customers.<\/p>\n<p>They are currently offering a 7 day free trial at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.voicerules.com\/\">www.voicerules.com<\/a> so check them out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the exponential growth of location independent working environments has caused a great amount of new products and services directed around helping businesses and individuals run day-to-day management.
