Just a tip: don't hijack a user's cursor, especially not with something as odd as this:
For the record, I would've thought this was hilarious, if not for the misshapen pointer finger 0_o
I like the "Tackle Gives Your Business A 1-800 Number That Connects To All Your Phones" pitch more than "The phone system for nomadic entrepreneurs". One solves a clear problem (albeit maybe a bit too dry) vs. one is nebulous.
Love the idea! One problem that I'm trying the solve but haven't quite found one yet. I haven't sign up yet, but would do so if I can find out more about the feature sets.
We're on live chat & Product Hunt, if you have any more questions
Hi Jennifer, Emil, the cofounder here! To give you some context into Tackle, we built Tackle because both of our businesses (Helpjuice.com and Promotify.co) were very customer-focused companies, and we wanted to provide a 1-800 number for our customers, but didn't want to use Twilio nor Grasshopper * Why Tackle vs. Grasshopper / Twilio ? * For Grasshopper requires a $500 deposit, and nickle-and-dimes on a lot of things, and set up isn't as straightforward as we'd like it to be. We used Twilio for a while, and calls would constantly break for some reason, and it became VERY unreliable once we had more than 1 international number. Hence, we built Tackle. Tackle takes 60s to get up and running, and you can add 1, 10, or 40 different numbers – it'll all work the same. Further more, with Tackle: -> we are able to provide MORE phone numbers, as we have a few different channels that we work with -> set you with a high-quality, professional custom greeting/voicemail, as we've noticed customers respond well to it (as long as it's not too long). -> give you detailed analytics on your calls, who's calling, and who from your team is spending the most on the phone -> are able to set times when people can call you. (aka no more 3 a.m. phone calls) Those are a few rough ideas on why people have been choosing Tackle, instead of Grasshopper!
This is a great designed product from the makers of Help Juice.
Thanks Jack! and I have been hard at work on it :-)
Big fan of Help Juice! This looks like another great product
Thanks Toni. /cc
using grasshoper for now. their pricing is a little friendlier
Love the idea and definitely solves a common problem... but only a single plan...?
