It’s time to ditch your old-school phone system.
Better Response Rates
When you make calls or send texts from a local number that your customers recognize, they are more likely to answer. New clients are also more likely to dial phone numbers that they feel are part of the local community. A local number is one of the easiest ways to increase your conversion rates.
