Business Phone Number Setup in Maple Ridge, BC — Separate Work and Personal on the Same Phone
Your spouse, your crew, and your customers are all texting the same number. A dedicated business line on your same phone keeps everything separate and makes you look like the professional you are.
If you're a contractor in Maple Ridge or the Fraser Valley, your personal phone is probably doing triple duty right now. Your wife texts you about dinner. A customer texts asking for a quote. Your supplier texts about materials. A new lead calls while you're putting your kids to bed. Everything comes to the same number, and there's no way to separate business from personal. I set up a dedicated business phone number that works on your existing phone: no second device, no complicated setup. Business stays business. Personal stays personal. And you look a lot more professional to your customers.
When You Need a Business Phone Number
You need this if your customers, crew, family, and suppliers are all reaching you on the same personal number. If you've ever accidentally texted a customer something meant for your wife. If a customer calls your personal phone at 9pm and it rings through while you're watching a movie with your family. If the number on your website, your truck, and your Google listing is your personal cell.
Beyond the inconvenience, a personal phone number looks less professional to homeowners who are choosing between contractors. When they call a real business number and hear a professional greeting, they trust you more. When they call a personal cell and hear "Hey, leave a message," or worse, you answer sounding like you just woke up, that trust takes a hit before the conversation even starts.
How a Business Phone Number Works
A dedicated phone number for your business runs through your existing phone. You don't buy a second phone. You don't carry two devices. The business number works alongside your personal number on the same phone you already have.
When someone calls or texts your business number, it shows up differently on your phone so you know it's a work call. You can answer it during business hours and let it go to a professional voicemail greeting after hours. When you call or text a customer back, it comes from your business number, not your personal cell.
After hours is where this really shines. When a customer calls at 9pm, instead of your personal phone ringing during dinner, they get a professional voicemail: "Thanks for calling [Your Business Name]. I'm currently unavailable but I'll get back to you first thing in the morning." Or better yet, the system can send them an automatic text so they know you got their call.
I set up the number, record or write your voicemail greeting, configure the after-hours settings, and get everything running on your phone. The whole setup takes me about a day. You learn to use it in about 10 minutes. There's honestly nothing complicated about it.
