Does your business need a Kentucky area code?

Local numbers are a great way to make a small business seem bigger, or for larger enterprises to establish a local presence without having to rent or lease a physical location there. With a 606 area code number for Kentucky, for instance, you can set up a virtual branch out of Ashland, Somerset, or Middlesborough—without having to rent or lease a physical office space.

And if you're running a marketing campaign that's trying to get potential customers to dial your business number, you can increase the chances of them calling if you make it a local number. Typically, people are far more likely to call since they won't have to worry about long-distance charges. And when you call them, they’ll be more inclined to pick up the phone if it's a local Kentucky area code on the caller ID.

Ashland is probably best known for its steel industry and the King's Daughters Medical Center, which is the fourth biggest hospital in Kentucky and the biggest employer in the state. If you're thinking of expanding your business to reach customers and prospects in eastern Kentucky, it's probably a good idea to equip your sales and support teams with a 606 area code number.
