Phone System: New franchisees will be set up with Voice for Pest, which will provide a dedicated business phone number. Voice for Pest utilizes a VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) phone system, meaning it operates over the Internet. We chose this type of phone system because it is ideal for businesses that need call center software.
