Regal.io’s Branded Caller ID, Spam Remediation and Journey Builder solutions enable brands to control outbound phone call branding to build customer-first phone experiences.Regal.io, the outbound phone and SMS sales solution, announced the launch of a suite of call branding tools for B2C sales teams to increase outbound call answer rate. Regal.io’s Branded Caller ID provides businesses with the ability to show their company name, location, logo, and other identifiable information to the customer’s cell phone before the call. For customers whose calls are being flagged as SPAM, Regal.io Spam Remediation (often called Reputation Management) ensures legitimate callers are not flagged as SPAM. And the Regal.io Journey Builder has been updated to enable brands to A/B test local presence, branded numbers, and unbranded numbers in the same outbound campaign.Regal.io’s new tools reach all 400M wireless devices in the US and drive an average 30% answer rate – 3x the industry average rate – resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars in incremental revenue for Regal.io’s customers from this feature alone.As consumer discovery and demand shifts online in industries that require a conversation for onboarding (e.g. Insurance, Healthcare and Education), businesses have switched to using phone calls in place of an in-person conversation. But when consumers don’t recognize the number, or carriers flag that number as SPAM, the call doesn’t get answered
