Data Select Breaks Into Fixed Line

Networks & Network Services
GoHello™, award-winning innovators of the ALLmobile business phone system, has signed up leading UK mobile phone and accessory distributor, Data Select. Part of the Phones International Group, and owned by BBC Dragon’s Den’s Peter Jones, Data Select supplies to a broad range of business customers including Phones 4u and non-specialist retailers such as Tesco and Argos.

This will be the first fixed-line replacement phone system for businesses that Data Select have added to their portfolio, complementing other successful solutions such as managed mobile services, hardware and accessories.

Introduced to the UK earlier this year, GoHello™ is the only ALLmobile solution to combine the best functionality of office phone systems with the flexibility of mobile phones.

Instead of using desk bound, fixed line handsets each employee uses a mobile phone (either their personal mobile, one provided by the company or a desktop GSM phone), and receptionists handle calls using GoHello’s web-based, software switchboard that provides all the features of a high end, business telephone system. In stark contrast to any other fixed line phone system, GoHello requires no hardware, no phone software, no installation, no technical maintenance, no upfront investment, no contractual tie-ins and most importantly, it provides considerable savings.

GoHello works with all UK mobile networks and serves the strong market demand for mobility within the business community. It allows rapid customer activation and offers authorised resellers significant incremental revenue across their customer base.

The GoHello subscription service enables customers to replace the complexity, cost and constant support requirements of fixed-line phone systems with an efficient and easy to deploy ALLmobile communications system.

“GoHello gives mobile dealers the opportunity to compete with fixed line dealers – but with a mobile solution. There is a great margin opportunity from both GoHello connections and through additional airtime sales”, comments Angus Dawe, Business Development Director of Phones International Group.

“The best way to see what GoHello has to offer is to try it. We’re offering dealers a free trial, so they can be confident when they sell the service to their customers”.

Francois Mazoudier, GoHello CEO, added ‘When it comes to telephony, SMEs of all sizes are today looking for two things: to reduce their total costs of telephony (on-going maintenance, long term contracts and hidden charges are just not acceptable) and make more of what they already have instead of making new purchases. GoHello provides a simple, risk-free and capital-free solution. Using people’s mobile phones intelligently is smart, increases employee productivity and saves money by utilising just the one system.

We are delighted to have partnered with Data Select as they have a genuine understanding of the large SME sector we are targeting and the logistical “muscle” to serve our dealers and resellers most efficiently.’

GoHello and Data Select will be supporting dealers with training, information and generous commissions. Dealers should call Data Select on 08702 420420 or visit www.gohello.com for further information.
