Controlling costs is becoming ever important – so we thought we would give you seven issues we think could help maintain and improve your bottom line.

1. Are your telephone costs really under control?

High running costs continue to be one of the main concerns with telephone systems, particularly those that have been in situ for some time. Not only can they costly, but often poor functionality leads to low productivity and poor communication, both internally and with customers and suppliers.

2. Are analogue lines costing you a fortune?

Analogue lines are fast being replaced by ISDN and Voice Over IP lines to provide better services and to save cost. We can quickly establish what savings are to be made by switching across.

3. Do you have an out of date call charge package ?

Often we discover customers have call charges far higher than are necessary, based on their particular usage and call profiles. We can analyse your bills and thereafter ensure you are on the correct package to keep costs down.

4. Are calls to mobiles pushing up your bills?

Companies with lots of staff out of the office find that it is the calls to mobiles that significantly increase costs. We can configure your system and mobiles so that these calls are free as part of your bundled package – saving some companies hundreds, if not thousands of pounds.

5. Are you still paying for external calls between offices?

Do you have more than one office with separate phone lines, incurring huge amounts of telephone traffic? Avandda can link these sites via the internet so that all your inter-company calls are free and you benefit from consolidated receptionist costs/ team working, whether your office is down the road or in Berlin. We can even offer video conferencing so you can communicate with colleagues in other offices and customers around the globe.

6. Could effective, low cost remote working save you money?

Increasingly, firms are seeing remote working as a good way of keeping travel and accommodation costs down. However home workers create phone bills from their place of work that have to be paid for. Avandda offer a VOIP phone in each home that connects seamlessly with the telephone system, giving your staff all the functionality they would have in the office, but with no call charges.

7. Have you reviewed your other utilities and overheads?

As telecoms become so central to organisations, we increasingly find ourselves helping customers save money on other utilities too. Whether it is their IT infrastructure or simply their other utilities bills, we’re here to help. Along with our cost reduction partners, we can hold a full review of your core overheads and provide a wide range of cost cutting solutions.

Have you answered YES?

If you have answered ‘yes’ to some or all of the questions we pose above, then we are convinced we can help you improve your productivity and profit margins.
