XO
Launches JustCom(TM), A New Brand Dedicated to Very
Small Businesses [March 22, 2005]
RESTON,
Va., March 22, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/
-- XO Communications, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: XOCM.OB)
today announced the introduction of JustCom, a new brand
of products designed especially for very small businesses.
JustCom provides very small businesses with robust voice
services that can be ordered online and deliver a comprehensive
set of features and cost benefits to help them grow
their business. As part of the launch, JustCom is introducing
the brand's first product, the JustCom Voice service
package.
For a flat monthly rate of $159.95,
the JustCom Voice service package starts with four business
lines, unlimited domestic calling, a toll free number,
and includes a myriad of features designed to provide
very small businesses significant savings on their monthly
telephone bill compared to offerings from their local
telephone company.
"More than 80 percent of the businesses
in the U.S. are small businesses, and one of their most
significant expenses is their telephone bill,"
said Mike Kraft, vice president and general manager
of JustCom services at XO Communications. "Until
now, most small businesses, especially those needing
just a few telephone lines, had little alternative to
the local telephone monopolies. Justcom Voice offers
a cost-effective alternative that addresses the unique
needs of very small businesses."
Specifically, the $159.95 per month
JustCom Voice service package includes:
-- Four business lines
-- Unlimited local and domestic long distance usage
-- Toll Free 800 number
-- Voice mail
-- Feature package for each phone line at no additional
charge
-- Call forwarding busy/don't answer
-- Call waiting
-- Caller ID name and number
-- Speed dial 30
-- Three-way calling
-- Directory listing
-- 24x7 customer care
Additional lines are available for only $39.95 per month
each. The rate is all-inclusive, except for federal,
state and local taxes. Customers can order the JustCom
Voice Service Package online at http://www.justcom.biz
. Customers simply fill out a simple service agreement
online, and there are no switching costs or installation
fees, no term commitments and customers can keep their
existing telephone numbers.
"The all-inclusive package takes
out the complexity and creates a product that helps
customers predict what their telecommunications spending
will be. Instead of charging for features separately,
we're including everything they need for one low fixed
price," said Kraft.
The JustCom Voice service package is
available to businesses in twenty-
five metropolitan markets:
-- Atlanta -- New York
-- Austin -- Philadelphia
-- Boston -- Phoenix
-- Chicago -- Portland
-- Cleveland -- Sacramento
-- Dallas -- San Antonio
-- Denver -- San Diego
