Discover how to get a professional business phone line using your existing smartphone with a VoIP app—no second device needed.

Small business owners are no strangers to the hurdles they must face just to get their company off the ground. Startup expenses can be among the biggest pains of launching a new business. As such, many first-time business owners try to cut corners on almost anything they can. A reliable phone service is one thing that should never be cheapened out on if you want to maintain reliable customer service.

But what if you could establish a legitimate business phone service without buying an additional phone—and keep your phone bill low while you do it? Nowadays, you can do exactly that. With the help of a reliable and trustworthy VoIP application like Ring4, you can leverage the smartphone you already own to create a business line separate from your personal cell number. Let us explain.

Get A Second Line With No Additional Hardware

Ring4 is helping businesses large and small to establish their business phone service without purchasing any additional devices—or even buying an additional smartphone. By downloading Ring4 from your smartphone app store, you can obtain a VoIP number and establish a second phone line separate from your personal cell phone service. Unlike using your personal cell number for business, Ring4 lets you keep your work and personal lives separate—all from the same device you are already carrying in your pocket.

What is a VoIP App?

VoIP stands for "Voice over Internet Protocol." VoIP software allows its users to make and receive phone calls on smartphones and other smart devices like tablets. VoIP has only grown in popularity over the years as more and more small and large enterprises experience the immense benefits and features a VoIP service can provide.

Benefits of Using a VoIP Business Phone App

  2. No Technicians: Maybe you may not be a victim of copper theft, but waiting for a technician to arrive between 8 and 4 can be a nightmare for busy business owners. With VoIP, it's as easy as getting on the internet.

  3. Less Setup Time / Less Upgrade Time: Installing software is infinitely faster than installing telephone hardware. Not only can you install Ring4 in a matter of minutes, but you can also have your business line set up in as little as 30 seconds.

  4. Enjoy Remote Work Availability: The days of being chained to your office phone are over. With VoIP apps like Ring4, you can work from anywhere while maintaining professional communication. Features like call forwarding, SMS messaging, and video conferencing keep you connected whether you are at home, on the road, or halfway around the world.

  5. Effortless Scalability: As your team grows, adding new business lines is as simple as a few taps. No installation appointments, no new hardware, no complicated setup. When team members leave, removing their lines is just as easy. Your phone system grows with your business.
