Did you know that one of the easiest and quickest ways to cut costs in business today is to manage your communications properly?
It’s surprising to note just how few businesses today even bother to look at how much simple phone calls are costing them. In a recent survey, over a third of directors never even glanced at their monthly bills.
Here’s Qualitel’s top tips to make your communication – whether it’s mobile phones, broadband, or landlines – more cost effective:
Mobile in the office – Mobile phones are there for a reason – so why are so many employees using them when they’re in the office to make calls? That’s what landlines are there for. If you’re a business, you can avoid sky-high mobile bills simply by making sure your workforce use the right phone for the job. It’s simple, but it can save thousands.
Check your tariffs – Obvious but effective. Make sure you always go through an independent company like Qualitel, who will help identify the best and most cost-effective provider to meet your needs without being biased to any of the network providers.
Personal use – Any workforce that has company mobile phones should also have a robust mobile phone policy which is implemented. This can mean limiting what calls can be made for personal and private use on a company phone, which can be open to abuse by some employees.
Review, review, review – Just because you may have what you think is a good deal, don’t be afraid to challenge it. Regular communication reviews can save you a lot of money. Schedule a 6-monthly or annual review of your bills and charges, to make sure you don’t miss any opportunities to save money by switching.
Replace, or repair? – Your old phone system is outdated and you need better equipment. Before you replace it, have you considered that it could just be a case of updating and repairing your system? At Qualitel, we can help bring your equipment up-to-date instead of a complete replacement. We can also provide reconditioned telephone systems, and even take your old system in part-exchange, if your budget is tight.
Mobile technology – Don’t know your Blackberry from a raspberry? Is Android alien to you? You could get smarter and more cost-effective with your communication if you can harness the latest technology available. At Qualitel, our own in-house ‘mobilisation manager,’ can help bring you up-to-date with gadgets and apps to make your business a streamlined success.
Buying power – Did you know that going through independent communication providers, rather than direct to suppliers, can save you money? Qualitel’s bulk-buying power means that we can save you, for instance, up to 30% against BT Business Plan.
Solutions provider – Use a company like Qualitel for all your business communication needs. Not only can we save you money, we can also offer cost-effective solutions you may not even have thought of. That’s what we’re here for. It’s not just about the cheapest tariff; it’s about making sure you get what’s right for your business, at the best price possible.
