As a business, your brand and your reputation need to remain consistent to maintain maximum growth. Connecting with customers over the phone is the most personal and efficient way to do business. Protecting your identity is one of the key ways that you can empower your voice channel to get more calls answered.
Spoofed calls are a major threat to the legitimacy of your organization. While 94% of unknown calls go unanswered, spoofers will take advantage of this knowledge to get you while your guard is down.
