Anyone recommend a good company to use for a voice mail system. Specifically I'm looking for something toll free, and that will email the voice mail message to you. Thanks alot

Roc,

With free services such as Google Voice, emails can be received transcribing audio messages to text, though rather poorly at times. It depends on your needs and goals for response times.

It's a question of how you envision this service impacting service to clients.

If you are operating with a smartphone, these usually are imbued with visual voicemail and other "apps" that may meet your needs at no cost. I personally love the Android market and have found great usage in Google Voice because it's interconnected with a service I already use for email.

We can name products once purported to increase efficiency; automobile, computer, microwave. A strange twist that these conveniences can easily be construed as liabilities and haven't led to an increased amount of personal time for many.
