I need a phone conferencing resource for a client project that I am just getting ready to start up on, but I don’t want to pay a lot of money and I am not sure how often I will use the service. I found one that suited my needs to a T and it may be a benefit to you as well.<\/p>\n

First, I didn’t really need a toll free line, although with the service I selected you can pay $.07 a minute for calls from all participants and get a toll free number if you want. For me, with nearly everyone having unlimited national calls on their phones or low cost long distance, having a toll free number for all participants was not a really big need.<\/p>\n

What I did need was a way to not have the issues of trying to use three way calling from my Verizon phone service; which is too hard to set up. I wanted a call in number and a participant ID for callers.<\/p>\n

This is what I found from research on the Web:<\/p>\n

1. I liked this service for $.10 a minute toll free conference calls www.ConferenceCall.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. I liked this service for my free toll conference calls www.InstantConference.com<\/a>. In fact, this is the one I chose to start out with due to the ease of use.<\/p>\n

I have tested www.InstantConference.com<\/a> already and the calls are very clear. The information on how to use the service is really easy and they even send a log of the call times via email.<\/p>\n

So, if you are like me and you hate free three way calling as it seems someone is always dropped from a call or it is hard to set up to get everyone on together, you may want to consider this free conference call service.<\/p>\n

P.S. I am not being paid to write this post for either of these two companies. I found them and researched them on my own and just wanted to share their services with you as you may benefit from them as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
