Home Phone
Home Phone vs. Cell Phone |
The telephones today are absent or even an old fashion tool of communication and information exchange. If you still have or are using a home phone, you are now officially in the minority.
Alex Graham Bell invented the first telephone in 1875. By 1877 the first telephone lines were constructed. In 1880 almost 49,000 home phones were in use. As the years went by home phone usage increased dramatically with almost 80 million people by 1960. Within 50 years of its creation the home phone become an essential tool in the United States. People raved about the home phone and its positive aspects. According to the US census there are 82,197,367 telephone lines that are in use today. This means that the home phone market has not yet died but it is well alive in today’s economy. The current target market for best current or long-term profit potential would be business, foreign countries and the older generation. Since security is a factor to most businesses, most companies think twice about any wireless communication. Most companies are afraid of any interference that can come from a wireless network; any breach in transmitting information through wireless communications can cause several risks for the company. Since most companies deal with private information, the use of landlines are considered to be more secure than mobile phones; Landline phones eliminates the worry of customer or employers information getting into the wrong hands, which can be dangerous. Every business today has a disaster relief plan, which basically keeps their technology working if the power goes out. The disaster relief plan is good for landline distributors because it allows landline phones to still be useful in an event without electricity. Usually companies have multiple usages for land line services which include but are not limited to fax machines, multiple phones with multiple users on one landline.
Consumer reports still recommend landline service
