Clients often use PSAI phone numbers for:

  • Google Local Services
  • Displaying in the main navigation bar of their website
  • Displaying on their website pages for select products, services, or geographic markets
  • Paid ads on Google, Bing, or other search engines
  • Paid ads on Instagram and Facebook
  • Print marketing materials such as flyers, door hangers, and mailers
  • Trade show booths 
  • Yard signs
  • TV and radio ads
  • Canvassing collateral

Regardless of whether a lead texts or calls your PSAI number, the interaction will flow into the Com Portal where you can listen to call recordings, send a text message, and more.

Not So Recommended For...

In general, PSAI phone numbers are not recommended for use on marketing collateral that may be expensive, difficult, or even impossible to adjust, such as:

  • Long-term/evergreen print marketing: Because your PSAI phone number will be tied your PSAI account, the number will not be transferrable if you decide not to continue your subscription. If you typically order very large print runs of evergreen marketing materials, please keep this fact in mind before choosing to display a PSAI phone number.
  • Hard-coded videos: One of the biggest benefits of PSAI phone numbers is their precise tracking abilities. If you hardcode a phone number into video footage, then it becomes impossible to track the performance of the different channels through which the video is displayed. It's much more effective to leave the video itself free from any phone number so that the different channels can be tracked individually.
