Figuring out how to cut costs and improve service can be really hard for a small business owner. Products designed to improve your business tend to cost more, and dropping expenses often means losing valuable assets. That's why it's important to know about things like telephone services from Virtual PBX, which can reduce costs while improving your business. But most business owners have never heard of it.

So what makes Virtual PBX so great? Image, control, flexibility, and cost. Virtual PBX provides the kind of phone service that is used by major enterprise, making your company look bigger and more reliable, without costing the hundreds to thousands of dollars you'd need to provide that image with your own hardware. And it's no smoke-and-mirrors trick, it actually gives you the entire corporate kit. By having your phone calls go through a Virtual PBX, you can get them routed to any phone, any place, and any time. There's unlimited voicemail, customized greetings, personalized phone messages, the works.

Work from home? Virtual PBX makes it sound like you have a full office. Work from the field? Get your calls routed to your cell without having to give out your cell number. Multiple offices? Virtual PBX has you covered. And all at as little as $10 per month. Even for a one-man operation, that's just $10 to get a full-featured, big business look and feel. For everyone else, it's a way to make routing your calls to the right person easier and cheaper while also getting a full-featured, big business look and feel.

Best of all, there's no obligations, no setup fees, a 14-day free trial, and no strings attached. Check it out at no cost, and use it without any obligations. So even if you're uncertain, you've got plenty of time to find out for yourself how much Virtual PBX helps you run your business, and how much easier it is than systems that are far more expensive.

Long gone are the days when only big companies could have call transfers, automatic greetings, hold music, and customized voicemail. Nowadays, there's a half-dozen ways to make sure that when people call your company they get a professional greeting and a voice menu that sends them where they need to go. All that's left is figuring out where you want to get your business' phone service (the tech is called a 'PBX' in the biz) from.

The obvious answer is usually the worst for small businesses, and that's hardware. A PBX box that can manage your calls, route callers to the right department, play recorded messages, and transfer callers at the press of the button will run into the thousands or tens of thousands of dollars. Hardware phone boxes like that are also pretty limited - you have to either buy newer, larger boxes as your company grows, or overbuy and have money tied up in hardware you're only using a fraction of. So save a trip to the office supply store, that's right out.

The second answer is getting some kind of bundled package from your phone company, or even switching to a different phone service provider to get a bundled kit. But then you're still tying yourself to hardware, since you have to pay a lot of extra money for each phone you want to have connected. You're also usually getting second-rate service, since the extra PBX services are just 'tacked on' to the phone service. And they have a monthly service cost in addition to the hardware cost, and you're still tied to a system (and sometimes long-term contract) that you need other engineers to change or update for you.

Or you can go with Virtual PBX. That way, you use whatever phones you already have, land lines, cell phones, computer phones, whatever you want. Then you jump on a simple computer interface, create a phone menu with whatever numbers you want, and point each option to the phone (or phones, or voicemail) that should answer it. The biggest advantages here are easy management, easy scalability, low cost, and high quality. There really aren't any downsides.

The choice is actually pretty clear. As the technology moves forward, computing technology gets more advanced, and instead of spending hundreds to thousands of dollars at once, or fifty dollars or more per phone per month and hundreds up front, a good phone system now costs as little as $10 per month. Get yourself a Virtual PBX today, save yourself money, and get yourself all the features that make your phones work for your business.
