| Look at the dial pad on your telephone. Chances are that you will find the letters of the alphabet sequenced in small blocks over the numbers 2-9. Have you ever wondered why they are there? Clearly it is for a reason. |
|
| In numerous overseas countries "alpha numerics" or "word/vanity numbers", using the letters on the dial pad to spell business, brand and personal names have proved very popular. Many substantial companies have been built on the basis of simply having the right "word number". |
| |
| In the United States and Canada alpha numerics are commonly referred to as "vanity" numbers, whereas in Australia and New Zealand they are more commonly known as "word" numbers. DIALABC follows the "downunder" practice and refers to Word Numbers, since in most cases their usage has absolutely nothing to do with "vanity" - just sound marketing principles. One of the best known examples of a famous word number is 1-800 FLOWERS. In 1987, Jim McCann bought a struggling florist’s business which was then losing $400,000 monthly. Within a year, and through clever promotion of its phone number, the company was very profitable, and has never looked back. Today, turnover exceeds $25 million monthly and the company is valued at over $1 billion. More importantly, the telephone number itself, so critical to the company’s success is now worth over $100 million. |
