Telephone Bill Audits:  Questions and Answers

Q. How do your clients pay for telecommunication billing audit and telecom cost consulting services?

A. Clients pay Bottaboom Consulting, LLC., a percentage of realized savings from the telephone bill audit. These are contingency-based fees. Our business model offers our clients a majority of the realized cost savings that we achieve for them. Some clients may also choose an hourly consulting arrangement for specialized projects such as contract negotiation, PBX fraud analysis and audit training for their staff.

Q. What are common client telecommunication problems?
A. Clients often feel overwhelmed with difficult-to-read telecommunication bills and they don't have the time or enough staff to handle the billing review workload. Because Telecom carriers use complex technical terms and present companies with erroneous or non-beneficial contracts, companies are confused from the outset. Furthermore, invoices often have multiple discrepancies. These problems are difficult to uncover and require a thorough, detailed investigation and constant follow-up. 
          

Q. Why should I contact your firm?
A. Because you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. If we don't find potential for savings after the initial telephone bill cost audit, you owe us nothing. If we do find that you are paying more than you should, as is usually the case, you may pay us with the funds that we recover or negotiate.  This is "found" money, not an additional expense.

Q. Who are your clients?
A.  Our clients include many large, medium sized, and small companies from various sectors of business and government. We are not limited to a specific geography and are open to businesses and organizations that have a need for a long distance or local telecommunications audit. All of our clients have a need for an objective party to investigate their telecommunication invoices and telecom expenditures in order to achieve cost savings as a result of the telecom audit. We have excellent corporate references, and we always respect our clients' confidentiality. 

Q.  What was your greatest accomplishment in the "telecommunication bill audits" business?
A.  Saving over 5 million dollars for a major federal credit union. We recently saved another company over 240K in long distance service cost recoveries alone and reduced their recurring monthly telephone and data costs by 75%. Their future recurring savings was over 1 million dollars per year.  The phone bill audit took about 120 days.  To this day, we provide ongoing telecommunication expense management for them and continue to save them money on their telecommunication services.   

Q.  How is business?
A.  Business is "booming." Many companies are looking to ethical telecommunication audit firms to save phone expenses and add value to their bottom line at no additional cost to them. We recently expanded our client offerings to include vendor contract negotiations and PBX security fraud vulnerability surveys.

Q.  How did you choose your company name?  
A.  We chose our corporate name because it is unique, memorable, and sets us apart from other telecom audit companies. Our name, "Bottaboom," exemplifies our high impact cost savings delivery model and huge monetary results that we deliver to our clients through the telecommunication billing audit process.  Our clients and the phone companies always remember us because of our exemplary telecommunication services.   

Q.  What are the business secrets to your firm's success?
