Pursuing a Google level of service

09/01/2007

I read an article recently by Sage Lewis on Clickz that said something that struck me as my goal (lofty though it may be) in building and designing our new website.

“Along came Google. Why was it successful? When you typed in a search query, the results you got were great. You quickly found what you were looking for. You loved it, and you told your friends about it. Google didn’t need to advertise. Google was so great at doing what it did, it changed the face of search by creating the largest viral campaign in history.”

I don’t pretend to be aiming at anything on the scale of Google.  But I am definitely aiming to deliver such great results for customers that they love it and tell their friends to the point that we ultimately change or impact the face of our little niche of phone numbers.

    Bill Quimby and tollfreenumbers.com has become a necessary and valuable resource for us. Before tollfreenumbers.com, we would spend hours of time searching for tollfree numbers for clients. When we could not find a suitable number, or it took too long, we lost clients. Now we can tell them in moments what is available or even let them search for themselves. The after-sale support is superb! Bill is the expert!

    That is the headline that I'd write for Bill and Rita. You see, I got a great tollfree number from them and it was time to implement it, I put down the wrong number. If it weren't for their patience and help it would have been a real problem.


    We went back and forth a couple of times with a virtual call forwarding service I had joined. While the new tollfree number is being ported (transferred to be a direct number rather than ringing forward) the service assigned me a temporary number so the tollfree number could forward calls to me. Everything seemed okay. However, after a couple of days I tested the service's forwarding number. It was working. The new service was working. But the tollfree number was ringing into an intercept that said the number was "no longer in service".

    That started our journey: I shot off an email to Rita... she replied she would have it working in a couple of hours... I tried the next day but it still wasn't working. I shot off an email to Bill. He and Rita both wrote back and said it was working from New York and New Jersey. I tried the tollfree number from a New York phone but it still wasn't working... so I wrote to them saying, "I keep dialing 888-807 and the rest of the number.

    Shortly thereafter I got an email reply from Rita suggesting that the number I purchased was 888-708 not 888-807.

    Hmmmmm, I sheepishly dialed the correct number and through some miracle it worked :-/

    So, if you have configuration problems with a TollFreeNumbers.com number and if you are dyslexic, as I am, have someone else in your office dial your new number. :-)

    My thanks to Rita and Bill for their patience with me.

    Thanks again,
    Steve Campbell, an embarrassed but satisfied customer

    I haven’t seen any other services, but if I did-I can't imagine them being anywhere as good as yours.
    With your advice I saved about $25K and was able to buy an 866 number from Pathways for $10k after negotiations started over 35k. So thanks so much for your help and your invaluable advice.

    You are a real person and provide live human response. I do that on my webs also, but it is extremely rare to get a human response rather than a robot.

    Testimonial 1399 out of 1850

    I was looking for an 800 number to add to my nationwide investigation firm, specifically for my cell phone. I went on Bills site months ago and every month received a very informative email about what is available. Unfortunately everything close to what I wanted was and has been locked up for a long time.

    Recently a decent size pool of 800#s had become available, I decided to take my chances as the "800" part of the number was the most important part.

    I clicked on the purchase now and Bill and his staff could not have made this any easier. By that afternoon the number was working. I did make the mistake of not immediately forwarding the number to my cell, so a day or so later, I sent an email asking to reroute the number and it was done within hours.innerfax inc. insurance investigations

    Excellent price, excellent service. My clients can now reach me on my cell phone, Toll Free, from anywhere. I could not be happier with this experience.

    Thanks a million!
