BlasterPhone hosted calling card platform – Start your own International Calling Cards business [Review]

With the advancement in Internet infrastructure and networking technology, VoIP has become a credible substitute for traditional telephony methods. Consumers are flocking to VoIP not only for their international call needs, but also for their local calling requirements. Needless to say, VoIP service providers are “making hay”.

If you are looking to be a part of this movement and profit from it, this is a good place to start. In this post, I will provide you with all the information that you need to start your own international calling card business using Blasterphone. For other opportunities to make money out of VoIP, read our earlier post on becoming VoIP reseller for Betamax.

Why Hosted Calling Card solutions?

Providing a telephony services is a serious and demanding business. Just look at any telecom company company around you and you will appreciate the complexity of operations. If you were to provide international calling cards, you will have to manage several things, including hardware (e.g., servers, routers, switches), Internet infrastructure, suppliers (e.g., DID suppliers, VoIP carriers), software (e.g., VoIP software, billing software), etc.

You surely can do all this by yourself, but maintaining the operations alone will take a significant amount of your time and resources, leaving very little time for the most important part of business – acquiring Customers.

In simple terms, hosted calling card solutions allow you to outsource the operational part of the business so that you can concentrate on the most valuable aspect of the business – Marketing.

“There is only one valid definition of business: to create a customer.” – Drucker, 1954
