A prospective customer was interested in TurboBridge because of our competitive toll free 800 conference rates and was interested in one of our introductory specials. The customer was using toll-free conferencing for all of their calls as the participants were all customers.

This particular customer was using 90,000+ minutes of toll free conferencing each month and had a bill in excess of $5,000 a month! The good news, TurboBridge was able to offer them a lower rate and right out of the gate, this customer was saving over $2,000 a month.

We had mentioned that TurboBridge also offered local toll numbers which might save them even more money. The company was hesitant, they didn’t want to appear ‘cheap’ and they also didn’t want to confuse their customer on what number they needed to dial.

TurboBridge toll and toll free numbers are almost the same 800-309-2350 or 805-309-2350. Almost the same is an understatement, only 1 digit difference! We suggested the customer advertise both numbers for several upcoming conferences and let the customer decide what number they wanted to dial.

The customer agreed to advertise both as a trial and on one of their first calls, fully 2/3rds of all participants dialed the toll number! The customer continued the trial and the same % held, 2/3rds called the local number with no prodding from them.

Two simple changes, selecting TurboBridge and offering toll calling as an option has saved this company almost 75% of what they had been spending for conferencing. It’s real money. It’s a real savings and it’s all because of TurboBridge.
