I'm intrigued to know how your advertising covers the costs of the calls. We
offer free messaging with advertising, but the ads barely cover the cost of a
one minute call. How do you make any money on say a 30 minute conference call
with a handful of connected parties?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

I offer a free conference calling service, I decide what the number inbound
is and I play my advertisement on the inbound calls. then I give them a
conference code and a conference PIN.<br>
if they want a custom or local DID, then they pay for that plus a minute
charge of $0.03 per inbound leg. advertisement on the inbound calls if
I can get it.<br>

What are the permium features? Bells & whistles?<br>
