Phonevite: Try It Out and Share Your Results!

[tonzafunn]

I just signed up for Phonevite! I have my contacts loaded, but have not done my first message. Has anyone else tried it yet? I just got the FREE version for now to start out, but would like some feedback on if its helped you with your business. I saw it in the Consultant News and thought it sounded helpful, I am always hesitant to try new things, but this seemed like it might work. I found in on Consultants Corner under Pampered Perks, if you want to give it a try, and let me know your results!

Re: PhoneviteI have used it for host reminder calls, and love it! It saves me a ton of time and gets the job done.I've not tried it for the other ideas mentioned in the CN.

Re: PhoneviteRight after the article in the Consultant News, I went online and signed up, loaded all of my contacts and attempted to use it, only to find out with the free version, there is a VERY limited amount of calls you can program it to make. I was very disappointed and have not been back to their site since.

I'd be interested to see what others think of the paid subscription to this tool.

The free version is really a trial set up basically. 25 calls at a time, twice a month I think??

The calls are cheap. The cheapest plan you can buy is less than $10. I believe you get around 200 calls for that?? So if you want to give it a fair shake, that is a cheap option. I dont know how many contacts you have. They have other levels, and the calls become cheaper the more you buy. But I want to say it is around $0.04-$0.05 per call average??

Re: PhoneviteI used to use another similar service before we had the phonevite perk and I liked it. I am not sure why I phased it out and stopped doing the reminder calls, but my host for this weekend provided me with phone #'s so I told her I would do her reminder calls, so I just signed up for Phonevite. I signed up for the $9.80 tier for 245 calls. Definitely worth it.

Re: PhoneviteSo is the $9 one a one time fee or is that a monthly fee?

Re: Phonevite

So is the $9 one a one time fee or is that a monthly fee?

No.
It is like a prepaid card. You buy the level you want. It not a recurring automatic fee. You buy credit for calls. The cheapest level is the $9 level for cloe to 200 calls. It is a great low cost way to try it out.

Re: PhoneviteI really like it! I use it for event invitations, team reminders, and for my hosts that will provide me with phone numbers. The only thing is, I now make sure the calls go out at non-peak times so that my message will be left as a voicemail. People were getting confused when they would answer the call and it was my voice but a computer talking.

Re: PhoneviteI have used Phonevite since we got it as a perk. I love this service! It's cheap, easy to use, and it does increase attendance at shows. Also, once you sign up occassionaly they will send you specials to get the calls even cheaper!

Re: PhoneviteCan you use it to call hosts to let know of upcoming specials?

Re: Phonevite

Can you use it to call hosts to let know of upcoming specials?

You can use the phonevite for any type of calls you wish. I think it is most often used for reminder calls though. I too have been thinking about signing up for it. I think I might sign up and try it for the summer months as I have a personal special going for all those that host or attend a show in June, July and August and wish to reach out to all my contacts about it.

Re: Phonevitewhat is a good time (off peak) to have your calls go out? I've been on the fence about this service and haven't tried it yet

 

[priseortega]

Re: PhoneviteWhat is your personal special? I'm looking for ideas.

Re: PhoneviteI sent it to over 450 contacts just like the CN said nd got NOTHING! I was so disappointed! My director used it also for no results.

 

[NewtoMom]

Re: PhoneviteI'm not sure I'll sign up for it yet. Maybe if things get to hectic or something. But I'm fine with just calling myself.

Re: PhoneviteI used it this week for my 40 hour/week job an had great results - now, to upload my PC contacts and give it a try...so far, so good! And definitely less expensive than the time and effort it takes me to do individual calls.

 

[NewtoMom]

Re: Phoneviteby great results, do you mean parties booked?

 

[busylady]

Re: PhoneviteNo. I didn't use it for PC. I used it for my full time job to remind 30 people about a conference call. Many participated and said without that call they'd have forgotten and wouldn't have been on the call. I think it would work great for show reminder calls to get higher attendance at shows.
