Here is a real life example I came across last week. This one is a personal (as opposed to a business scenario but you will see what i mean).

One of our customers was expecting a baby. As so many of us have done he got a list of phone numbers so that he can call after the baby is born.

However, rather than making 15-20 calls he simply sent a chat call from his Phone.com account. How does that work: he recorded the message he wanted: “Hi all .. we have a baby girl… 8p weight, 19 inch, mom and baby are great … more later” (ok – you get the idea…).

Next he entered the phone numbers of all the relatives/friends and pressed “send”.

One call. Rings all on the list and broadcasts (or blasts) the good news.

Thats it. one more great feature from Phone.com!

Say your phone number is 222-333-4444 and all your contacts know that is your phone number. But what if you are not next to your phone? Or, worse what if you are at the beach but need to call your important client who thinks you are in your office working on his/her project?

With a Phone.com account you get a phone number that is your phone number no matter where you are and no matter what phone you want to use to dial out of. So when you are in your office near your “real” every day phone you appear calling from your 222-333-4444 number but even if you are at that nice beach using your friends cell phone to make that important call to your client you can still appear to your client as if you are calling from 222-333-4444.

Do you have a phone number that you really want to keep? Had it for a long time? Many people know it but not to many use it anymore?

Or perhaps just your childhood area code (or parents number) but your parents moving near you and leaving the phone number area code?

Well, no need to keep the old phone line (or cell phone line) and pay high prices for the pleasure of keeping a number. Just transfer it to Phone.com and with our Phone.com Virtual Number service you can keep the number for just $4.88 per month and you can forward the number to any of your current phone lines or simply send it to a designated voicemail plus you get 250 minutes to use and many other features.

Just started a business “on the side” or as a hobby and not sure where it is heading or whether you should continue? Continue! Your passion is certainly there. It may just grow into your main source of income or your life long dream business!

Warrillow & Co. published interesting data in their latest newsletter. They found that around 29% of small business start that way.

From their analysis we can also learn that it does not happen overnight. But it may not be that long of a wait. for most of these businesses 1-3 years is what it takes.

So go for it and dont give up. Your dream business might be on its way.
