The phone number should absolutely be in text so that it is easy to cut and paste (and easy to be picked up by smart phones). Thanks for weighing in! I'm glad you enjoyed the conference. I hope you can make it to the <a href="http://www.kellesparta.com/Products/CreatingRelationshipsOnTheWeb2.php" rel="nofollow">Creating Relationships on the Web</a> class next week!

When it's in an image, I can't highlight and copy it, which is a convenient thing to do if I want to grab a number and put in a document or calendar, so I can call later. By the way, I used k9.com too but I think it no longer exists. Google Voice is cool ..but your post is really about the IMPORTANCE of being reachable, not so much about telephone options! Having an easy-to-remember website address is a good idea too.

I've used www.K9.com in the past as well. But if you don't get a lot of phone calls, they won't be the best because they will cancel your number if you don't get a call or retrieve information for 30 days. Kelle Dear David,

Too true! I’ve used http://www.K9.com in the past as well. But if you don’t get a lot of phone calls, they won’t be the best because they will cancel your number if you don’t get a call or retrieve information for 30 days.

Absolutely right. An idea for those that don't want to give out their home office or cell numbers. There are several web based phone services that will give you a toll free or local number that rings to voice mail. Settings let you arrange for an instant text message to tell you there is voicemail. You can also be notified by email with the voicemail attached as an audio file. Messages reviewed by phone or online as well. Very available but private info stays private. I like www.Kall8.com. I've also used www.MaxEmail.com Both also provide incoming and outgoing fax by email. Have a great conference! David Kelle….
