How important is area code nowadays?
Just moved to a new city to join a commercial real estate firm. How important is it to have a local area code for your cell phone number when doing business? Will people be more likely to answer a cold call from a local area code compared to an area code clear across the country? Thanks

You can grab a google voice account for free and connect it to your cell phone if you want to keep your original number.", "replies": [{"id": "e1636yv", "text": "This is exactly what I did and it works fine. I still don\u2019t understand how Google voice is able to give you a free number.", "replies": [], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}]
