A technician texts “on my way” from a personal phone. A salesperson tells a customer to call them directly. Each helps get the work done, and each can leave the business with a customer contact point it cannot reroute and records it cannot retrieve when the employee is out or leaves.
This paper separates the employee’s device from the company’s communications identity: customers call and text a company number, employees answer through a business app on their own phone, and the company controls routing, records and handoffs. It includes a 30-day rollout plan and a departure checklist.
