Sample Service
Real estate agents for example might display their 800 call capture phone number on a signrider (small, sometimes 12 × 30 sign that sits on top of the For Sale sign in a house owner's yard), with a call to action like "Free Recorded Information—Call 24 hours". When someone drives by, notices the sign, writes the phone number down and calls on his cell phone or land line, they are greeted by the real estate agent's personal greeting, directed to dial in the 4-digit extension for the home they are interested in. Then, they listen to a 45–60 second "audio tour" of the home.
At the end of the message, the caller can either leave a voice mail, transfer directly to the agent, request an automatic fax of specs for the home, enter another extension to listen about another home, or simply hang up.
Regardless of what they do, the agent who owns that 800 call capture phone number will be notified within 30 seconds of the caller's phone number. If the caller is calling from a home-based phone, then the real estate agent will also receive a notification with the caller's phone number, name and address.

Famous quotes containing the words sample and/or service:
“The present war having so long cut off all communication with Great-Britain, we are not able to make a fair estimate of the state of science in that country. The spirit in which she wages war is the only sample before our eyes, and that does not seem the legitimate offspring either of science or of civilization.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“The ruin of the human heart is self-interest, which the American merchant calls self-service. We have become a self- service populace, and all our specious comforts—the automatic elevator, the escalator, the cafeteria—are depriving us of volition and moral and physical energy.”
—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
