Thanks so much for the all the encouragement I have been on many different forums and never got as much support as I have in this community .  I would love to meet up with some of my local members to pick your brain.

Hey you guys so I'm new to this and hope I'm posting in the correct spot but I'm just about a week away from sending my letters and postcards out and trying to find out the best phone system to use.  Is It best to do the virtual phone system or business phone line at my office.  Going to be on the go a lot so I really need something that can transfer call to me if I'm away.  I feel this might be something that is overlooked by some so I don't want to do the same.
