What is a local phone number?

A local phone number is a number that is directly associated with a particular geographic area. Each local number is marked out as belonging to its specific area by an area code, which appears at the start of the number.

Once upon a time, you had to be physically located within a region to get a local phone number with its specific area code. Today, however, virtual numbers that use Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology mean businesses can operate local numbers for any areas they like, whether they have premises there or not.

Benefits of a local business phone number

A local phone number for business can deliver a range of general advantages.

Firstly, it helps you build a local presence in different geographic areas. Customers and potential customers in an area are more likely to view you as a business that may be for them if you have a number they recognize. That helps you build trust, even before they’ve spoken to you.

A local phone number for businesses often improves answer rates for your outbound calls, too. Prospects, customers, and other contacts are more likely to answer a call—even an unsolicited one—from a number with a local area code than one they don’t recognize at all.

Local numbers can even help with more efficient call management. If you have different numbers for different areas, you can route calls made to those numbers to the right branches, departments, or people. That helps callers get what they need faster and without time-consuming call transfers.
