Now Let’s Make Some Calls (and Gauge Your Close Phone Bill)
All calls in Close are charged based on usage, on a per-minute basis according to Twilio's ”Pay-as-you-go” Voice pricing (call duration and its costs rounded off to the nearest minute and cent in your bill).
With that pricing front and center, let’s say you make some 30 local calls (within the US and Canada), about 3 minutes long each, and five, 2-minute long international calls.
This would be $0.0140 per minute for local outbound panama telegram data calls, which is $0.04 per call or $1.2 for 30 local calls.
As for international calls, rates vary according to the country you’re calling. So for five, 2-minute calls to the UK (for example), each call would be charged at $0.0040 per min. This would take the total to $0.5 for five calls ($0.01 per 2-minute call to the UK).
Your total usage bill for a month? $1.25.
When you add it to the monthly business phone cost of $187, your total phone bill with Close would be $188.25 (about $2,259 yearly if phone usage remains mostly the same).
But that’s not even the best part. Because there are several ways calling from your CRM can save you more money. Top of them being: instead of calling every other cold number, dedicate your call budget to only speaking with nurtured leads (to do so, you’ll want to first make such a calling list by adding leads matching a specific criteria to Smart View).
