Does your business need a 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 402 area code number for Nebraska, for instance, you can set up a virtual branch out of cities like Omaha, Columbus, and Fremont—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.

Fun fact: Omaha is one of the top cities in the US when it comes to per-capita billionaires and Fortune 500 companies. Not only that, it supports a diverse range of industries like banking, tech, construction, and more. Based on this, economically it's a solid place to set up shop and try to reach customers and prospects, especially if you're running a B2B business.
