[asterisk-biz] Any Cellular Phone Related Businesses in CanadaInterested in Call Transfers?

[Steve Totaro]

I have thought this out a bit.  The number is a toll free 888 vanity
that I paid for because it is so memorable.  I did a test with my
eight year old niece.  I told her the number and asked that she
remember it.  A week later, I asked her the number and recall was
immediate.

Anyways, I am up for bids.  The number is very memorable and to clear
things up, my number is 888, their number is 800, but someone messed
up and pucblished my number.

My thoughts on this are as follows:
1.  Block international calls which I would not really want to do.
2.  Have an IVR with different/companiies offers relating to products
that may be of interest to the caller to choose from.
3.  Link up with one company and they take the calls.

As to the price, it would  vary.based on the indented service and what
it is worth to you.  $2 U$D seems like a fee if the call goes over two
minitue, less than two minutes, no charge.  A two dollar qualified
leads is a bargain.

Still thinking this through.  Suggestions and ideas are more than welcome.

Thanks,
Steve T
