Virtual Office - a professional image for home based businesses
If you work at home, travel a lot, or don't have a base office, the
"Virtual Office" can help you.  The "Virtual Office from
AnswerOne provides you with two local telephone numbers
which become your "Office" number and your "Fax" number.

Your "Office" number
When someone calls your office number, they will be answered
by a personalized recording explaining that you are not
available to take their call at that moment.  The caller will be
invited to leave a detailed message so you can get right back to
them.  A notification will be sent to your cell phone to let you
know that you have a message.    If your needs include more
than one person in your "Vitual Office" your personal greeting
can direct the caller to "Press 1" for person A, or "Press 2" for
person B, etc.  


Your "Fax" number
This number acts and sounds like a regular fax machine but
when it receives a fax, it can either send it immediately to your
E-mail address or store the fax internally waiting for you to call
in from any fax machine and retrieve it.


Accurate, Efficient & Cost Effective
The "Virtual Office" can be priced as low as $29.95 per month,
with additional users priced as low as $9.95 per month.
