Do you need a local 808 Hawaii phone number?

Businesses looking to target local islanders should have an 808 area code so they can be reached and recognized easily. There are other reasons to have a local presence, too:

Local loyalty with a local number

Hawaiians are a loyal bunch regardless of whether they hail from Oahu, Maui, or Molokai. With a local VoIP number, business owners can help them feel they’re supporting a local business in the same time zone rather than a distant corporation. Your caller ID shows you’re local, so your answer rate is as high as possible.

Do you need a local presence in multiple area codes? OpenPhone lets you own unlimited telephone numbers on a phone system that supports them all. Choose cities in Canada, the US, or toll-free numbers.

Use your Hawaii phone number outside 808

Did you know Honolulu International Airport has daily connections to Los Angeles, Seattle, Sydney, Vancouver, and more? Go ahead and hop on a flight. Virtual phone numbers let you take care of clients on the mainland, work remotely, or run a fully global company. You don’t have to stay in the state to use your Hawaii phone number. Whether you’re in the US or anywhere else around the world, your business remains local.

Give your number to your team to share

With the ability to share and restrict access to your phone number, you can add unlimited team members to the same number. They can answer calls, see and respond to texts, and keep everyone on the same page. Some things you can do are:

Add an assistant, so calls get answered when you’re not available
Invite co-founders for double coverage
Keep the lines open for important clients
Share call recordings with everyone for better training

Do you have some employees who need their own lines? With OpenPhone, you can add as many unique numbers as you like to your telephone system.

Look more professional with business features

OpenPhone helps you professionalize your business communication. Prospects see a local caller ID with your business name, and they hear custom voicemail greetings for different scenarios, like a missed versus after-hours call. Call forwarding is also easy. Select an OpenPhone number, turn on call forwarding, and choose the number where you want calls to go.

You can also let customers choose the help they need from phone menus with no PBX system. Call recording enables you to discuss calls with your team or onboard newcomers. It’s all there to help you organize calls, serve customers better, and come off as professional as any corporation while still appearing local.

Just a piece of advice. I used my personal cell number as the company number and I still regret it a decade later (I get so many stupid calls). Don’t do what I did. I wish I had a service like this 10 years ago!”
