Next, let’s look at why you might need a 805 area code.
The 805 area code is located in southern California and covers Santa Barbara, Ventura, San Luis Obispo, and parts of Kern counties.
Located in the Pacific time zone, the 805 prefix was created in 1957 as a split from the 213 area code and originally covered only Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. In 2000, the 805 area code was split again, creating the 661 area code for Kern County. The 805 area code currently covers an estimated 3.4 million people.
The 805 area code is bordered by the 310 area code to the south and west, the 831 area code to the north, and the 747 and 818 area code to the east. The 805 area code includes most of Ventura County and all of Santa Barbara County, which includes cities like:
Dialpad’s not just about phone calls—the desktop and mobile app brings all your communication channels together into one app, from video conferencing to SMS and instant messaging, and even a contact center platform if you need it.
Use Dialpad’s desktop and mobile app across iOS, Android, PC, and Mac—or just use your web browser to join a call or video meeting, no downloads needed.
Never miss a call again. Dialpad’s call forwarding feature lets you choose up to five external numbers, so you can have calls automatically forwarded to your cell phone or landline, a colleague, or another department.
Smart call routing gets your callers to the right department or person—without you having to lift a finger. With Dialpad, you can easily set your own rules for specific people or departments, have out-of-hours calls sent to voicemail, and make changes to your IVR without any help from IT!
With Dialpad, you can make work calls from your personal cell phone—while showing your 805 area code work number and protecting your privacy.
Dialpad’s built-in AI is built by our own team and integrated directly into the communications platform to transcribe your phone calls and video meetings—in real-time. This way, you don't have to be distracted with note-taking and can give them your full attention (and Dialpad even detects highlights and action items).
When you're in back-to-back meetings all day, you can't always listen to every voicemail. Dialpad's visual voicemail feature transcribes your voicemails into text, so you can quickly read them when it isn't convenient to listen to them. (It even emails the audio and text versions to you!)
There are plenty of reasons why your business needs a phone number with an 805 area code. Having a local phone number not only makes it easier for customers in the area to reach you, but also for you to reach potential prospects. With local presence, you can avoid the hassle of setting up a physical office in Santa Barbara, Oxnard, San Luis Obispo, or other cities within this area code.
Ventura county is a key agricultural center in California, so if your business operates in or with this industry, it's especially important to have a phone number with the 805 area code.
An 805 area code phone number for your business can also help you build trust with your customers. When customers see a local area code on your website or on your business card, this can increase their trust in your business.
