Forgot to mention this is a new fresh egg after the CP changes . Incubated it straight away and got finally lucky ! <| sep |> send the calls to your cell phone . The existing customers won ' t mind leaving a message . Unless you are doing SEOPPC advertising you are not going to get sales calls out of the blue . And if you invest in that you wouldn ' t be fazed by the cost of a live answer service . You are going to get calls from potential vendors all day long trying to sign you up for a partner program . One thing I have learned starting up , is don ' t put the cart before the horse . It would be great to have everything before you need it but the reality of bootstrapping is that you can ' t do that . Wait until the phone calls are too much to handle , then get an answering service .
