Smaller Indiana

Making people and ideas findable

Jon D. Speer

To access the company directory, please enter the first few letters of the person's first name

I have a BlackBerry. More times than not, it's a very convenient tool. But I do have an issue where you might be able to help. Sometimes when making calls, I get the automated company directory. The recorded voice prompts me to enter the first few letters of a person's name. However, BlackBerrys do not list the letters that correspond to each number. I usually guess and guess wrong.

But it's so cute to have a phone number that spells a word!

Two suggestions:
1. Don't call them-find another company that respects modern technology.
2. Save their number in your phone after looking up the digits from your land line phone.

I also get pretty irritated when businesses will advertise on vehicles or billboards with 1-800-mybusiness. I can't call you! And... If you don't have a website, I can't check you out on my mobile browser. I'm amazed at the number of businesses that have this big flub...

I miss the days when a person answered the phone and could help.

I just had this same conversation with someone the other day. I'd guessed correctly and now memorized *D and *T so I can delete my VMs and transfer to another number. Other than than, I'm toast! It's times like this I say "I don't think we've thought this cunning plan all the way through!'

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
