Freelance Life on Your Terms
When you’re juggling projects, clients, deadlines, and new ideas, the last thing you want after working all day is your number ringing at 10 pm. It can be hard to divide your professional life from your personal life whilst still appearing dedicated and available to your clients. That’s where having a virtual phone number can change everything
What Is a Virtual Phone Number (And Why It’s Perfect for Freelancers)?
A virtual phone number, also known as a VoIP number, is a phone number which allows you to make calls using the internet instead of relying on traditional landline services. It differs from your traditional services due to its flexibility and cost-effectiveness, especially when provided by Number People. A virtual phone number gives you a professional business number without the hassle of new hardware or contracts. You can take calls from anywhere and keep your number private. You no longer need to rely on a full office setup to look professional; a virtual phone number gives you that credibility and edge, minus the expense.
Key Reasons Freelancers Love Virtual Numbers
