The Power of One

If there's one thing that unites small businesses all over the world, it's pressure on your time. No matter whether you're a one-person company or heading a business that's grown to 100 or more people, anything that minimises the time you spend on the fiddly day-to-day stuff of management is a good thing. You want your business to be your business.

Nowhere is this more true than when you consider your communications needs. If you started your business more than 10 years ago, the mobile phone was a rarity, while today it's an essential. If you had internet access, it was probably via a dial-up connection and used solely for email. And while your landline phone was pretty much the same, there was less choice and you were probably paying a lot more per call than you are today.

Fast forward to today, and the situation is very different. You may already have broadband, all your employees have mobiles, and you can choose from a wide range of landline providers. If your business has been growing steadily, you probably have multiple suppliers for each, which means that you have to deal with multiple bills and payments, several account managers, and complex tariffs - particularly if you have more than one mobile provider.

You're the key decision maker - and all of this means you have more decisions to make, which takes up more of your time. Time that could be better spent concentrating on growing your business.

One need: One plan

Imagine having only one service provider, one bill, one payment, one contact number for enquiries and one point of contact for your fixed line, mobile and broadband needs. Well, that's just the beginning. By bringing together at least two BT Business services and opting for BT Business One Plan(3) , you could enjoy low capped rates of 5p on UK* landline-to-landline calls of up to an hour(4), as well as a 25p cap on UK landline calls to most UK* mobiles for up to an hour(5). For only £2.50 extra a month per mobile connection (a small increase in line rental) you can also benefit from this 25p cap on mobile calls(6) to UK* landlines and mobile to mobile calls within the UK, (if you sign up before 30 March 2007 with our special offer). You could also get a further reward credit of 5% off your communications spend after 12 months(2).

Your company could also benefit from broadband, which is now available with download speeds of up to 8Mb(7) subject to local availability - with a minimum spend per year of only £500.

Even if you're just starting out in business on your own, BT Business One Plan could be perfect for you. BT Business One Plan doesn't just offer a package of services, it's also about giving you more convenience in terms of cost control, as a single bill for landlines, mobiles and broadband makes it easier to see what your communications needs are costing you.

There's also hassle-free billing and customer service, with one number to call for all your service, billing and fault queries and one simple bill - so you can focus on your business, not on juggling paper. And your plan can grow as your business grows.

Q&A

"I'm already on a BT Business Plan. Can I move to BT Business One Plan?" Yes. If you're an existing Business Plan customer, you can move to BT Business One Plan and enjoy all its benefits if you're moving to the same tier you're already on, or a higher one(1). Talk to your BT Local Business for more details.

"The 5% reward(2) sounds good, but does it only apply to landline calls?" No. You can bring other qualifying BT services into BT Business One Plan, making them eligible for the reward after 12 months, including BT Mobile, BT Fusion, BT Business Broadband, Broadband Voice and Broadband Value Added Services.
