Special Introductory Offer on Alltel's Local Connect “Virtual” Numbers

May 28, 2012 - PRLog -- Alltel Pty Ltd (www.alltel.com.au), a leading provider of telecommunications solutions to Australian businesses, announced today a special offer to promote their new Local Connect “virtual” business phone numbers.

Any business that signs up for Alltel’s new Local Connect service before May 31 will receive the FIRST 2 MONTHS FREE on any 12 month contract. This special offer is available on both the standard Local Connect service and also on the Local Connect Plus bundle, which includes additional features such as call recording.

“We’re very excited to be offering this new service,” said Trent Brinsley, Alltel’s General Manager. “Our customers have helped us to design Local Connect by telling us which features are most important to them that aren’t currently provided by other services on the market.”

A Local Connect number looks like any other Australian phone number, but that’s where the similarity ends. It’s a “virtual” number, which means it’s not tied to a specific phone like a regular landline number. Instead, it can be configured to ring at one or more landline or mobile phones, both in Australia and overseas.

These numbers are ideal for businesses wanting to promote a local presence. A growing number of Australians prefer to support local businesses, which is where Local Connect comes to play: attracting new customers. You can also get Local Connect numbers for areas where you don’t have a physical location or office: for example, you can direct an 07 or 02 local number to your office in Melbourne and sell to customers Australia-wide.

Other benefits of this service include low VoIP call rates, free voice to email, missed call email notification service, concurrent calls, simultaneous ringing (of multiple phones), and real-time call records that can help you to track your calls and measure the success of marketing campaigns.

And all of this is backed up by Alltel’s great customer service!
