Robert said:I wouldn't recommend getting a 1-800 #. When customers see a 1-800 #, they say "oh, free call for me!" and then they call.. and call.. and call.. and boy do they call. They call in the AM, they call in the PM, they call in between. They even call unrelated to your services.

Robert said:If you do want a 800 #, I would put the hours of operation so they understand. Somethinng like M-F 10AM - 5PM. But let them know that 24/7 is available via the forums or online chat. You could even put that as the answering machine during non-working hours on the 800 #.
