\"WhyIf we had a penny for every time we heard the question: \u201cIs this a scam? Why are you so cheap?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2026well, we\u2019d be almost as rich as the greedy hogs that made you believe phone numbers are expensive.<\/p>\n

Our prices are not cheap, reduced, or in the least bit scammy. They\u2019re just fair.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s right\u2026fair.<\/p>\n

If you knew how much a phone number really costs your provider that\u2019s charging you $30+\/month, you would have switched a long time ago. The problem is they have held us all captive until recently. Up until the advent of cell phones, smart phones, and mobile telecommunications, we associated numbers with lines and figured we needed a separate number for every call. That was still true even a few years ago, but now we\u2019re smart people with smart phones and it\u2019s time we had smart numbers.<\/p>\n

Numbers that serve a purpose\u2026.not just a telemarketers purpose.
\nNumbers that protect our time\u2026not interrupt during dinner or our favorite show.\u00a0 Numbers that are fairly priced\u2026.not cash cows of greedy executives.<\/p>\n

Now go be smart, number smart<\/a>, and don\u2019t let those greedy hogs roll around in your money any more.<\/p>\n

Love,<\/p>\n

The Pig
