VOIP Offers Business Increased Sales And Reduced Costs
Voice Over Internet Protocol allows you to use the internet to make free computer to computer phone calls or incredibly low cost computer or Wi-Fi handset to regular telephone calls.
VOIP Basics
There are many VOIP systems available.
Internet based phone systems offer businesses a very inexpensive way to increase their sales.
Many businesses rely on email to sell their products. It is time consuming, people are slow to answer, if they answer at all, and it is cold.
Those businesses that add a live contact system to their web sites experience dramatic increases in sales. People simply respond well to talking to a real person.
A VOIP system is actually an advanced sort of live contact system in that it not only allows you to take calls, but it also allows you to make phone calls to enquiring customers. Businesses using this approach see even higher sales. And at the same time, they cut their phone costs significantly.
One of the most popular VOIP systems is Skype.
Skype is a phone service owned by eBay that operates like a normal land line, but uses your internet connection that you already pay for cutting costs and maximizing a resource already available.
You do not have to wear a headset to use VOIP when you use the Skype 3.2.
Calls can be made simply using the microphone and speakers that come with any laptop or desktop PC. Echo cancellation and noise cancellation capabilities of Skype make your calls sound like a call with headsets or phone handset but without the hardware.
As a result you can have hands free operation of your Skype calling while not cluttering up your physical desktop with additional hardware.
You can find out for yourself by downloading the Skype 3.2 beta, installing it and calling your friends and colleagues without any headset or handset. Go to Free Business Services and look at all the information. Go to the download link in the top navigation bar for complete information about what you get.
Advanced VOIP Considerations
Traditionally, many people use headsets when using VOIP systems. They are inexpensive and a good way to get privacy to start. There is a collection of headsets that you can see at this link. Telephone Head Sets
Once people find how convenient a VOIP connection is, they generally upgrade to a handset. There are many reasons people do it. Here is are some customer comments by people who bought wi fi phones to use with Skype.
"We have two of these phones, one in my wife's office and one in the kitchen. I like the intercom since I can call her even when she is talking on her land line. Also the free caller ID and cheap long distance make it a winner.
"Used to spend a lot of money for calls to Morocco. this is my first time using Skype. I bought the unit a month ago and all I can say is wonderful adventure! light phone. easy setup and big saving. driving anywhere around the city (in the US), the phone connects to any non secure wi fi network. with SkypeIn, I was able to talk to the world free and clear. so the phone passed the first test.

Skype for business has some other very attractive features. It includes an online control panel for allocating credits to users and viewing the amount of money spent; and the ability to install and manage the application on multiple computers with the Windows Installer package.
