If you have a front desk receptionist or another employee making outbound calls, you’re going to have a hard time making that worth your while.

Most business greetings include a simple, firm handshake. Pay attention to names, and always introduce the “less important” person to the “more important person.” Business etiquette dictates that clients should be considered the “more important person,” even more so than the boss. Run this by your boss beforehand, however.
Having experienced multiple "small business phone systems" (AT&T hard wired system - OK, AT&T SynJ wireless system - TERRIBLE, and a vTech system - almost as terrible) and for basically the same price plus a little bit of configuration time, the Grandstream products worked better, had more features and had much better sound quality than the others. I hope this helps. I bought this system for my office due to the affordable price. It initially had some problems with calls cutting out and poor call quality. I was going to return it, but the quality improved for a short while. The problems came back a week later and I had my phone guy look into the phones, wiring, and telecom installation. He said everything else was good but there was a problem with the phones. We hooked up a different system and viola! No more problems.
