Business Reputation Protection - BCID and NUSO Brand Watch

Business Reputation Protection

Legitimate and important calls from businesses are increasingly being blocked by errant spam filters marking them as Spam Likely or simply ignored when labeled Unidentified Caller. As a result, consumers are missing important and wanted calls such as health appointment reminders, school notifications, and many other types of calls from legitimate businesses.The value of Business Reputation Protection lies in ensuring phone calls reliably ring through to customers without being unidentified or labeled as spam. For any business or organization that requires outbound calling, the value is immense, particularly in today's environment where call screening and spam filtering are highly aggressive.NUSO Business Reputation Protection takes two forms, each addressing specific issues and overcoming the challenges in today’s communications landscape. NUSO Brand Watch performs a regular check across multiple databases to ensure legitimate phone numbers are not mislabeled as Fraudulent or Spam. Branded Calling ID (BCID)™ displays business name, logo and reason for calling on incoming calls, removing doubt to overcome the Unidentified Caller hurdle.

Branded Calling ID

Branded Calling ID (BCID) allows businesses to establish trust with a consumer immediately by displaying the business logo, name, and reason for calling directly on recipients' mobile devices, significantly improving call answer rates and building customer trust from the first point of contact.

Here are Six Benefits of BCID

  1. Increased Call Answer Rates

If your calls are flagged as "Spam Likely" or "Unknown Caller," customers are far less likely to answer. Ensuring your calls display properly with your business name increases the likelihood of engagement.

  1. Trust & Credibility

A recognized and properly identified business number builds trust. Customers are more likely to engage with a call from a known entity rather than ignoring or blocking an unknown number.

  1. Compliance with Carrier & Regulatory Standards

Mobile carriers and regulatory bodies (e.g., STIR/SHAKEN in the U.S.) enforce strict measures against spam and robocalls. Business Reputation Protection ensures compliance with these frameworks, reducing the chances of being mistakenly flagged.

  1. Better Customer Experience

Customers appreciate receiving legitimate calls without having to second-guess their authenticity. This leads to better interactions, stronger relationships, and improved satisfaction.

  1. Improved Operational Efficiency

Sales, support, and other business functions that rely on outbound calls can operate smoothly without the friction of call blocking or spam tagging.

  1. Safeguards Against Number Spoofing

Reputation protection measures help prevent bad actors from impersonating your business’s phone number, maintaining integrity and reducing fraud risks.As a BCID Authorized Partner, NUSO is part of a select group of industry leaders actively engaged as both Signing Agents and Originating Service Providers, ensuring the highest level of authentication and verification for branded calls.
