FORT WORTH -- August 25, 2004 -- It’s 3 a.m. on a snowy Saturday in December, you’ve just put the last present under the tree, and you remember you forgot to hire a new Web Hosting company for your growing business.
The clock is ticking, because this is the last half hour you may have until your in-laws leave after the holidays and the clock is ticking on your ability to claim business expenses for this tax year.
No problem! Even on Christmas Eve, or at 3 in the morning on any other, more ordinary day, you can call C I Host and have a live person answer, “Hello. How can I help you?”
Starting immediately, C I Host is staffing its sales center around the clock, every second of every day. Because, it may be Christmas or 3 a.m. here, but it’s likely to be 10 a.m. on a workday somewhere else in the world where small businesses are in the mood to buy Internet services.
“Many of our customers are small and medium sized businesses, small offices, home offices and consumers,” said Christopher Faulkner, CEO of C I Host. “Whenever they want to order new services from us, or buy services for the first time, we want to be there. The worst things a potential customer can hear are ‘sorry we’re closed,’ or ‘please leave a message.’”
The 40 million small businesses in the United States provide 75 percent of new jobs and 99 percent of all employers, according to the Small Business Administration. Small businesses employ half of the private work force and provide 41 percent of private sales in the country.
“We know that running a small or medium sized business isn’t a Monday through Friday, 9 to 5 job,” Faulkner said. “We know the hours and dedication it takes to succeed. So whenever you are working, C I Host is working too.”
