We needed to set up a virtual call forwarding service for this client so that they didn\u2019t miss any more calls.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 20px; height: 20px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;bottom-to-top&#8221;]<span style=\"color: #203961;\"><strong>Solution:<\/strong><\/span> I set up a local number for the couple so they could advertise it on their web site. \u00a0When people call them, they hear the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.messagingservice.com\/features\/auto-attendant\/\">Auto Attendant Phone System&#8217;s<\/a> greeting. \u2018Thank you for calling the Smith law firm, please choose from the following, for John press 1, for Mary, press 2.\u2019 \u00a0Once a person chooses the extension for either John or Mary, they are transferred to the appropriate cell phone. The law firm is prompted that a call is coming in from their phone system and can tell instantly if the call coming in is for their business or personal. \u00a0If they cannot answer their cell phone, the callers can leave a message in their professionally recorded voice mailbox, which is delivered via .wav file to the intended person\u2019s email. \u00a0They simply check their email on their phones, so they never miss an important call.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 20px; height: 20px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;bottom-to-top&#8221;]<span style=\"color: #203961;\"><strong>Results:<\/strong><\/span> John and Mary are very pleased with their Auto-Attendant&#8217;s virtual call forwarding service. They advertise the number on their website and gradually, they are receiving more and more traffic to the number. They receive monthly call reports so they can track the amount of calls their new number receives. They also like the fact that they did not have to hire a receptionist and they can receive their phone calls anywhere, as they are not tied to their office. They had no idea that something so simple and inexpensive could help run their business. Thanks in part to AccessDirect, the couple&#8217;s new law firm is practically an instant success![\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 20px; height: 20px;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cell phone forwarding for this client so that they didn&#8217;t miss any more calls.
