Step-by-Step Setup Guide
1
Create Your Account
Visit our signup page and enter your email address. You'll receive a verification link to confirm your email. This protects your account and ensures we can reach you with important updates.

Note: Use a business email if possible so multiple team members can manage the account.

2
Choose Your Phone Number
Select your preferred area code from our available options. Want a New York number? Los Angeles? Any major US city is available. You can also choose a toll-free number (800, 855, etc.) for a more established look.

Tip: Pick an area code that matches your target market. Local numbers get answered more often than unfamiliar ones.

3
Set Up Call Forwarding
Tell us where incoming calls should go. Forward to your mobile phone, office number, or our app. You can set different forwarding rules for different times (business hours vs. after-hours).

Example: Forward to your office phone (9 AM–5 PM) and mobile phone (after hours).

4
Record Your Voicemail Greeting
Create a professional voicemail greeting that callers will hear when you're unavailable. Keep it brief (15–20 seconds) and friendly. You can re-record anytime from your dashboard.

Template: "Thanks for calling [Your Business]. We'll return your call shortly. Please leave a message."

5
Download Our App (Optional)
Get our mobile or desktop app to make and receive calls directly from your device. Sign in with your account credentials, and you're ready to go.
