This strategic analysis is part of Frost & Sullivan’s continued coverage of the U.S. retail toll-free services market space. Toll-free services were historically designed to provide businesses with a convenient way for their regional, national, and international customers and suppliers to call inbound without requiring the callers to bear the cost of such communication. Since its inception in the 1960s, the toll-free services market has experienced tremendous growth in calls, minutes and revenues. An increasing focus by businesses on customer satisfaction, a continued growth in call center activities and declining toll-free pricing are just some of the factors which have contributed to the growth of the toll-free market.
