Have Your Faxes Sent To Email.

Here’s a tip for all of you who use a 1-800 number. Have your fax messages sent to e-mail. No more paper jams, pile ups on the floor in front of the fax machine. No more missed faxes.

Some service providers such as Tollfreenumber.ORG allow fax messages to go straight to email. This convenience saves costly paper and immediately transports the message to the business owner or company representative. This type of service is good for customer relations, saves pricey paper fees, and saves the environment too--an added bonus.

When choosing toll free service, make sure to carefully review the menu of services—you will benefit from a carrier that offers the ability to forward your 1-800 phone call to land lines, faxes, emails, etc.

Also, make sure to look for a company that allows you to own your number outright. Once an owned number is assigned, it will stay with you permanently. If a company grows or moves locations, the numbers go with them. But if you fall into the trap of a shared use lease, you could risk losing your number.

Saving paper is just one benefit of the fax to email feature. There are so many advantages to using 1-800 numbers—too many to list here. According to reports, 98% of Americans use toll free numbers regularly. Businesses can see increases of as much as 600 percent if an advertisement includes a 1-800 number. Toll free numbers increase market reach, enhance customer confidence, establish recognition of brand image, and sustain businesses during times of a weak economy.
