1. You will need a SIP provider or a VOIP white label reseller.
2. You find consultants here, engineers to setup your servers and services and programmers to interface and create your website.

Yes you can be a SIP provider... but invest in a few loaded SONUS GSX-9000 $1 mil in each get colo and few STM-1 lines to tier 1 carriers... then get a licenses from your government for telecom operation. If you in US (FCC 499, 214, CALEA etc..) Then next step would be to setup ur own SS7... so If you have an extra 5 millions you can become a SIP provider with in 6-9 month other wise look in to white label and spend your money in to marketing.

Unless you want to become one of those guys who making a bad name of VoIP by using an Asterisk and other unreliable open-source technology to provide a SIP trunking and sooner or later go out of business and make your clients to hate VoIP.
