Setting up a pay phone line can be quite a lucrative business. However, this requires a lot of organizing and advertising efforts, since income will depend on many factors, among which the most important one is the number of subscribers using your services.
It is necessary
- - telephone set;
- - a computer;
- - Internet access.
Instructions
Step 1
Purchase a telephone set that will receive paid calls and a computer needed to collect information and gain access to the Internet. It is also desirable to have a separate telephone connected to the CO line for making regular calls.
Step 2
Install all equipment at the place of work. At the same time, there is no need to rent a separate office space or major re-equipment. It is enough to have a free desk at home, which can accommodate a computer, telephone and necessary documents.
Step 3
Get permission to set up a toll line. To do this, you can contact specialized companies, including communications firms, mobile phone offices and the city telephone service. Conclude an agreement specifying a paid short number, terms of delivery and tariffs. If you use a landline phone, then the city inquiry service will act as an intermediary for you, and if you use a mobile phone, then the connection will be made through a cellular operator. In the second case, the cellular company takes over the maintenance of your number and charges a certain amount for the service every month.
Step 4
Form a telephone base. First, create a list of the most popular requests, and then supplement it with the help of the Internet and telephone directories. Create a specific conversation template with the client that will focus on getting information, not just idle chatter. You can also start by creating reference books of a narrow specialty, which are considered the most effective, since extensive catalogs do not always give out complete information on the required request.
Step 5
Advertise your toll line. To do this, you can place ads in printed directories, in local newspapers, and also contact free referral services that can refer customers to your phone for a fee.
