The End of the Landline: What Your Business Needs to Know – Bullfrog
As a consumer, you may have already ditched your home landline in favor of your cell phone. What was once commonplace 10 years ago is quickly fading — 60 percent of homes today don’t have landlines, and it’s estimated the majority will be landline-free by as soon as the end of the year.
But what about your business? Chances are it still depends on copper-wired telephone service to make and receive calls. While you may not have given much thought to the state of your business’ phone system, you should start now. Like the home landline, the business landline is on the way out. In fact, it could be gone as soon as 2017. Some 30 states are working to deregulate the landline in favor of a VoIP alternative, meaning your business will be forced to switch to an alternative phone system sooner rather than later.
Make the right decision for your business by being informed. Here is what you need to know to prepare your business for the end of the landline.
