Does your business need a western Nebraska area code?
Local numbers are a great way to make a small business seem bigger, or for larger enterprises to establish a local presence without having to rent or lease a physical location there. With a 308 area code number for Nebraska, for instance, you can set up a virtual branch out of counties like Dawson, Lincoln, and Buffalo—without having to rent or lease a physical office space.
And if you're running a marketing campaign that's trying to get potential customers to dial your business number, you can increase the chances of them calling if you make it a local number. Typically, people are far more likely to call since they won't have to worry about long-distance charges. And when you call them, they’ll be more inclined to pick up the phone if it's a local Nebraska area code on the caller ID.
While Grand Island and Kearney aren't huge financial hubs like a New York or Chicago, there are some large manufacturing businesses in the area and there's a university in Kearney as well (University of Nebraska at Kearney).
