Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) June 14, 2004 -- Plummeridian Communications, Inc has just started marketing the number 1-800-PLUMBING to plumbing contractors nationwide. For a small monthly fee a plumber can have calls placed to 1-800-PLUMBING in the area they subscribe to, ringing directly into their local office.
1-800-PLUMBING was once the entreprenurial vision of Beth Cline who was a licensed plumber in Baltimore, Maryland. Her dream was to market 1-800-PLUMBING on a nationwide basis. Beth died of breast cancer at the age of 45 and now her family has decided to fulfill the dream that she once had.
Using a vanity 800 number like 1-800-PLUMBING has been proven to provide instant brand name recognition. It is a number that customers will remember and memorable vanity phone numbers have been proven to increase response rates to advertising by 20% - 30% or more.
A Chicago Tribune advertising survey found that newspaper advertisers using 1-800 vanity phone numbers were getting 10 times the number of responses to those advertising with a local numeric number.
Through enhanced call routing, the 800 number can be shared by multiple users all over the country. The telecommunications provider automatically routes the calls through a database which defines where each call will terminate. The database is populated with the area code and exchanges for each licensee. When a call comes in, a comparison is made with the database based on the area code and exchange of where the call originates. Then the call is automatically routed to the 10 digit number that it is programmed to terminate at.
To check if the number is still available in your area, just dial 1-800-PLUMBING and if you reach the nationwide marketing office, then you are in luck! The company website is www.800plumbing.com
