How To: Prepare Your Business for Upcoming Tariffs in the VoIP Industry

With all of this talk about tariffs, we wanted to provide you with some information to hopefully ease your minds and provide a little direction to help with navigating these changes. We know that these changes will impact businesses globally in every industry. So let’s look at how you can prepare and how you can mitigate extra costs and still add to your bottom line when it comes to VoIP. 

What can you do?

Firstly, stay as informed as possible. As we know, changes can happen in an instant and you must stay up-to-date on these policies as they may be subject to change on a dime. You can do this by subscribing to industry newsletters, monitoring government announcements, and joining social media industry groups that may provide real-time updated information. We would recommend that you subscribe to our blog as well!

Secondly, assess your current VoIP infrastructure sooner rather than later. This can include hardware, software, and service providers. Identify which of these may be affected by the new tariffs and explore alternatives such as domestic or cloud-based solutions that can reduce your dependency on imported products. 

Budget and plan for increased costs. If you know you will be making purchases on VoIP products and maybe put it off a little too long, now may be a good time to purchase. Work with your VoIP Supply to stock up on things you may need in advance to avoid more fees in the future. If you’re considering or planning any larger purchases in the coming months, reach out to voipexperts@voipsupply.com. We’re happy to place stocking orders now to ensure you have everything you need and help you avoid higher costs down the line.

Many people are also now starting to look into purchasing TAA-compliant items. Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant means that a product meets the requirements of the federal law that governs how the U.S. government purchases products. TAA-compliant products must be manufactured or “substantially transformed” in the United States or a designated TAA country. VoIP Supply has made finding the TAA items we provide pretty simple, just click here to browse our TAA-compliant products. 
Give some of the above suggestions a try. If you need help or guidance in any way, VoIP Supply is here for you! If you have any comments or questions you can leave them below, chat with one of our VoIP Experts at www.voipsupply.com, or call us at 1-800-398-8647.
