OK Startup Nation, I want to talk to you about our sponsor, Tresta. Tresta is an app for iPhone and Android that lets you do business calling and texting from anywhere. 

I know so many entrepreneurs that are still using their personal phone number for business calls. It can get complicated, drawing the line between your personal and professional life. 

This is the best business phone app out there, whether you just need a business phone number or if your team is ready for a complete business phone system. Tresta is totally flexible and can grow with your business. And it’s all unlimited – calling, texting, and all of their powerful call management features like auto attendants, call recording, user groups, and more – for just $15 per user per month. 

With Tresta, there’s no contract, and you don’t need any special hardware – just the smartphone you’re already using. Tresta is easy to configure, so you can set everything up yourself - all online – avoiding all the hassle and high overhead costs of setting up a traditional business phone system. Which is important because as entrepreneurs we are always trying to cut cost.

They’re offering a 30-day free trial, so you can see if Tresta’s virtual phone system is right for you. Communicate smarter and more efficiently with Tresta. Start now at tresta.com/startuplife. That’s t-r-e-s-t-a-dot-com-slash-startup-life – all one word. The link is there in the show notes if you are listening on the podcast. Tresta, Business Communication. Simplified.
