Phone Snoopa hands the reigns over to locals as part of their commitment to Regional Australia
National full service telecommunications provider Phone Snoopa has launched Snoopa Community Telecoms. Focusing on delivering better service at city rates to Regional Australia, Snoopa Community Telecoms is seeking local individuals or businesses to operate their own community based telco within an exclusive territory.
Phone Snoopa provides the locals with all the tools necessary to be successful. All marketing design and collateral is provided, along with fully functional website plus a range of promotional activities and launch strategy.
Phone Snoopa carries out the customer support function, that in true country fashion excludes the use of IVR and recorded messages – the focus is on personalised friendly and efficient service. Coupled with this Phone Snoopa also handles the billing, credit control and provisioning processes leaving the local business to focus on client acquisition.
Deregulation of the telecommunications industry has resulted in new players, however the level of competitive activity in rural and remote areas is still a long way behind the larger cities. The advent of voice over the Internet (VoIP) is changing the landscape and for the first time a decentralised solution is removing distance from the pricing regime. It is also providing the opportunity for communities to take control of their own telecommunications.
“For rural and regional Australia to remain competitive they must have access to the latest technologies at competitive prices. Businessmen and residents need to embrace the opportunities that the telecommunications revolution is offering rather than wait for a city-based Telco to decide to roll out new products after their city rollouts are complete. This is an opportunity for entrepreneurial residents to provide access to the benefits of these new technologies and to ensure that their community remains competitive.”
Nick Crews, Managing Director, Snoopa Community Telecoms.
