Small Business and VoIP- The Perfect Pairing
Chicken and waffles. Campfires and ghost stories. Wine and cheese. Some things just go well together. The same is true of superior Gabbit VoIP service and your small business. You may think that VoIP is only for big corporations, but, your small business will benefit greatly from reliable and affordable VoIP plans from Gabbit. Dumping your traditional phone service and switching to VoIP is one of the best decisions small business owners can make. Let’s take a look at what constitutes a small business and how Gabbit can transform that business with VoIP.
What exactly is a “small business?”
You may picture a quaint little corner boutique or an overworked accountant in a closet sized office when you think of small business. In 2021, 28 million small businesses made up 99.7% of all U.S. businesses, so small business is definitely big money for our economy. According to the US Small Business Association (SBA), a small business can be defined as an organization with a maximum of 250 employees to a maximum of 1,500 employees depending on the industry. They can be privately owned corporations, sole-proprietorships or partnerships.
Revenue also factors into the small business definition. In retail, a small business makes under $7.5 million in average annual receipts. In agriculture, that number goes down to $750 thousand per year. Maybe your small business is real estate. That means your receipts are under $32.5 million annually. Medical and social assistance services are considered small business if their annual receipts are less than $38.5 million. Most small businesses, however, have fewer zeros behind their annual haul. Almost 90% of all small businesses in the United States have 20 employees or less.

Gabbit VoIP is also a tool that helps to gain and maintain a competitive edge.
The SBA sets official definitions for small business in order to protect and promote them as an essential part of the larger economy. It part of a larger vision to allow small businesses equal access to government contracts and provide tools to help them compete against the big guys.
VoIP Desk Phones or Cloud-based VoIP
