There is
nothing better as a salesperson than experiencing the product you are selling
first hand, and in the last couple of weeks I have seen the benefits of Truphone
Local Anywhere in my life outside work. I’m not sure it’s going to be the
example we use on our future media packs, but nevertheless it shows how
beneficial our product can be to our customers!
My
girlfriend is a US citizen
working over here in the UK for a few years, and a couple of
weekends back she was taken to A&E with horrific pain in her head and
stiffness in her neck. As you can imagine, any head related injuries are taken
extremely seriously so she ended up spending 12 days in the care of the NHS.
This would be a fairly uncomfortable experience for anyone, but when you’re
several thousand miles from family and friends it is even more so. She has a
mobile phone on a UK network,
however international phone calls to and from the US can prove
costly, even in an emergency!
Fortunately
she had been trying out the Truphone Local Anywhere service, complete with US
local rates and a Massachusetts Connecticut phone number, so her worried
parents and close family and friends were able to call her whenever they needed
to, for the same price as making a phone call to someone in their street. And
whenever she had an update from the doctors, she was able to call home and put
minds at rest, again, for the same price as calling me or one of her friends in
the UK.
It’s been a
horrible couple of weeks, but certainly the Truphone Local Anywhere product made
things a little bit easier for her, and the good news is she’s now recovering
well, and getting far more calls from the other side of the Atlantic as a
result!
