FT11 Business Systems

By Michael Marquardt

For over 18 years now I have heard the same question time and time again:

“why should I buy a phone system? All I have is 2 lines and 3 phones. I’ll just go to office depot or Radio Shack and buy some cheap phones”

So often the first place I hear of budgets being cut is on the communications system. It boggles my mind because in truth, the phone system is the very heart and nerve center of any business operation. It is the method by which you communicate with your customers, and they with you. So why not invest in the best, most feature rich equipment? The right Interconnect company will install, program, stand behind and train you on the use of your new phone system. In turn, your system can pay for itself in no time at all. In fact in most cases, 1 single lost sale is all it takes, and then its down hill from there, I assure you.

A phone system can project professionalism, or the exact opposite result.

Features like music on hold, custom on hold broadcasts that can help promote your business and voice mail, can greatly enhance your customer relationships and your ability to respond quickly to customer needs and inquiries. These features can also make you look and be more effective and professional and can actually help instill trust and stability. Likewise those 2 and 4 line phones you got at a garage sale or Radio Shack can make you look small, unorganized and down right pitiful. Some even try to install external music on hold devices to these inexpensive phones, and end up just wasting their time and money trying to look better. These systems can be convoluted to operate and usually offer no line privacy and little, if any, useful functionality.

Look for a system that will grow with your business to maximize your investment.

Our entry level systems start out equipped to handle up to 4 lines, 8 digital and 2 analog stations and can grow all the way to 28 lines and 50 stations. We also offer growth possibilities to over 600 ports with our larger system offerings. A system equipped for 4 lines and 8 stations starts as low as $1,500.00, installed. You simply can’t afford not to invest in a quality phone system for your business. And with available leasing programs starting as low as $35.00 per month, what are you waiting for? Find a local dealer near you and schedule an appointment today. I also recommend that you get at least 3 bids, weigh price, responsiveness and knowledge and call on their references. Upgrade to a proper communication system today and stop loosing sales and customers. You’ll wonder how you ever did business without one.
