What is Google Voice, how to use it, why I love it. | [Desaraev | Agency Couture]

I Love Google Voice. Well truth be told, I love ALL THINGS GOOGLE. If I'm a fan-girl anything it's definitely for my love of Google and a couple of key writers work ie. Hester Browne, Paulo Coehlo and Chris Brogan.



Google Voice Number
Google Voice is full of helpful features for individuals or business owners. You start off with the option to get a "Google Voice Number" or you can use your current number. I chose to get a Google Voice Number.



Google Voicemail
After you set up your new number you can also set up to have your voicemail forwarded to Google. Google Voicemail gets transcribed, the voicemail is emailed to you, and you get your new voicemail as a text message (SMS). You can save these messages "technically" forever.

Google Voice Forwarding
You can choose to have as many people on your account as you'd like. Which means you can have your phone number ring EVERYONE in your company. You can even choose which people can auto go into voicemail and who has to use a password. Which means not everyone needs voicemail access. To call from the Google number you have to call Google and sign into it then call from Google. The one problem with his is if you don't want everyone to have voicemail access.

International Google Voice Calls
International phone calls via Google Voice are very reasonable. You can add a maximum of $70 worth of credits at one time.

More Google Voice videos are available here.

I love this new thing called Google Voice. I say new but technically it's been around for a few months, and I can barely remember when this feature didn't exist. I'm sorry to say to the open public that Google Voice is still in Beta which means it's only available by invite. I have a few invitations that I was saving for clients, but will give one to YOU dear subscriber. No money catch, I'm not going to charge you for it.
