How To Get Business Number For Foreign Clients

in #business • 17 days ago

I'm looking to expand my small web studio to international clients, but I don't want to give out my personal cell phone number on the website. I need something professional that looks like a local office number in Europe or the US.
Is it possible to get a number that doesn't require a physical SIM card? Does anyone have experience with this for a small team? What are the best options that don't cost a fortune every month?

    You definitely need a virtual service for this because roaming on a regular SIM will eat all your profits. I’ve been using DID Virtual Numbers https://didvirtualnumbers.com/en/ for about a year now and it’s been a lifesaver for my agency.

    The best part is that you can get a virtual phone number forever so you don't have to worry about the number expiring if you forget a payment one month. I set mine up to forward calls directly to my laptop when I'm working, which is super convenient.

    They have numbers from over 90 countries, so you can pick exactly where your clients are. Setup is instant and doesn't require any special tech skills. It's much cheaper than traditional landlines or international plans. Just make sure you have a stable internet connection for the best call quality. It really helps build trust when clients see a familiar area code on their screen.

      Thanks a lot for the detailed breakdown, this is exactly what I was looking for. I didn't realize you could actually own a number permanently without a monthly subscription headache.

      I'll definitely check out that site tonight and see which countries they offer.
