Local phone numbers for area code 401: A must-have for sales and customer teams

Local numbers are useful for both inbound and outbound customer teams—and when you buy them from Dialpad, you’re getting much more than just a business phone number.

How it works

All of Dialpad’s paid plans come with a local number included, in this case a number with a local 401 area code. This is along with unified communications features like phone calls, video conferencing, SMS/MMS messaging and team messages, and more—all from one intuitive, easy-to-use desktop or mobile app:

The lowest plan starts at just $15/user/month, which also includes unlimited calling in the US and Canada!

Next, let’s look at why you might need a 401 area code.

Where is area code 401?

The (401) area code serves the whole state of Rhode Island, including major cities like:

  • Cranston

  • East Providence

  • Pawtucket

  • Providence

  • Warwick

  • Woonsocket

Located in the Eastern time zone, it serves the five counties in Rhode Island: Bristol, Kent, Newport, Providence, and Washington. The 401 prefix isn't slated to run out for at least a few more decades.

Dialpad’s built-in AI is designed by our own team and integrated directly into the communications platform to provide voice transcriptions for 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 picks up on highlights and action items for you).

Visual voicemail

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!)

Get started

Does your business need a Rhode Island 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 401 area code number for Rhode Island, for instance, you can set up a virtual branch out of Cranston, Providence, or Warwick—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 Rhode Island area code on the caller ID.

Today, healthcare and education are two of the biggest industries in Rhode Island. And Providence is home to the HQ of Citizens Financial Group, which is the 14th biggest bank in the US. (Not to mention there's a good handful of Fortune 500 and Fortune 1000 businesses located in Woonsocket and Providence in Rhode Island.

So, if you're running either a B2B or B2C business (but especially B2B) and are thinking of expanding your business to reach customers and prospects in Rhode Island, there could be a big opportunity here. Either way, it's a good idea to equip your sales and support teams with a local 401 area code number.
