Introduction: Business Cell Phones

Our cell phones are millions of times more powerful than all of NASA’s combined computing power in 1969. They can capture beautiful photos, tune guitars, provide navigation, and process payments. It’s simply remarkable…and something we can easily take for granted.

Here’s something else you can do with your mobile phone – it can help you run your business, whether you’re a team of one or many. Today, most business owners stay in touch with customers using both an office phone and a mobile phone. Because they don’t want to mix personal and business communications or give out their personal phone number, they typically buy a separate cell phone. LinkedPhone is changing that – and saving business owners a lot of money in the process.

Our business phone app adds a stand-alone business phone number to your personal cell phone, preserving the privacy of your personal number. One cell phone – two phone numbers – a personal number and a business number. It’s easy, convenient, and adds tremendous value to the daily lives of small business owners and entrepreneurs.

With the LinkedPhone mobile app, simply pick any local or toll-free business phone number and start using it right away (you can even port in your current business number if you already have one). The LinkedPhone second phone number app works like magic. No need to buy a separate business cell phone or sign up for expensive business cell phone plans.
