Run your small business with Grasshopper
Look and sound professional.
Grasshopper makes your business look and sound established with extensions that automatically route callers to the right team member. Cut down on wait times and build stronger customer relationships that improve satisfaction and loyalty.
Want to make a great first impression with customers? You can use custom phone greetings to welcome callers, confirm they've reached the right place, share business hours, and walk through extension options.
Keep business and personal calls separate.
Using your personal number for business can make it challenging to stay organized and accurately track business interactions. With Grasshopper, you can isolate business communications while still using one device, and easily manage it all with the Grasshopper mobile app.
When an incoming caller is a known business contact, the Grasshopper icon will appear. And when you call a new customer, your Grasshopper phone number will appear on their caller ID. You can also mute or forward calls when outside standard business hours or on vacation.
Stay connected on the go.
Small business owners need to stay connected with customers, even when away from the office. With Grasshopper's desktop and mobile apps, you can stay connected on the go and quickly respond to customers when you’re available. And if you’re unable to listen to voicemails, Grasshopper provides voicemail transcription that allows you to easily sort through messages via email.
Simplify and save costs.
Setting up a traditional phone system can be costly, complicated, and time-consuming. Grasshopper is an affordable virtual phone system for small businesses that eliminates the need for extra hardware, saving your business money. Grasshopper also offers an easy setup and configuration process that is customizable to fit your business needs so you can get started quickly.
