Who Pays The Mobile Bill?

Written by Peter Brockmann

Wednesday, 14 March 2007

In a study I completed in the summer of 2006, 187 business executives provided insights into the role of mobile phones in their jobs. Here is the distribution of three classifications of their functions:

Customer facing such as sales and marketing
Executive, administration, information technology, finance and management
Product, services and manufacturing

In combination, 75% of respondents have their mobile bills reimbursed by their employers. Interestingly, it depends on your role in the business, as shown below.

Is your mobile phone bill paid by your employer or paid personally?
