Ideas For Using Skype In Your Home Business

• Use your Skype # as your business number. Keep your personal # personal
• Set up your Skype Voicemail to take your business calls, and record a message for business only
• Buy (for a low price) multiple “SkypeIn” numbers, so customers in many different geographic regions (even different countries) can call you at cheap, local rates. For example, a user in San Francisco could create a local telephone number in Munich, Germany. Callers from Munich would pay only local rates to call that number. You could do this for many different geographic regions in which you have friends, family, business partners, or customers.
