Chicagoland Virtual Office

A Virtual Office starts with a local or toll free telephone number.
Now you're in business…barely.

Customers and prospects can call your Chicagoland Virtual Office number and leave a message. But, customers don't call a business to leave a message. They call to speak with someone, now.

By adding “Find Me – Follow Me” your Chicagoland Virtual Office will call you, at any number, and connect your callers to you, live. And with optional free Call Screening, you'll decide which calls to take, and which to send to voice mail.

New: Callers can listen to Your Company's “On-Hold” Message, while they wait to be transferred.

You can sound even bigger, when your Chicagoland Virtual Office answers with an Auto Attendant. Callers might hear “Thank you for calling [your company]. If you know the extension number of the person you're calling, you may enter it at any time. For Sales press 1, Technical Support press 2, Billing press 3, etc. or Press 9 for the Dial by Name Directory”, even though all calls and departments are transferred to you!

When you don't take calls live, callers can leave a voice mail message. Each person and department can have their own private voice mailbox. Your Chicagoland Virtual Office can then call you and deliver the message to you and send the message to your email, so you can hear it over your computer, or any Internet device. You can also be notified by pager.

That's great, but you're still not done. Every business needs to be able to receive Faxes. Your Chicagoland Virtual Office number can be set to automatically receive faxes, or you can add a separate number for faxes only. Faxes are delivered to your email, where they can be viewed, printed, forwarded, saved or discarded.

With this Chicagoland Virtual Office, you're in business for real:

The Chicago metropolitan area is sometimes grouped together with Milwaukee and Racine in Wisconsin, creating a megalopolis, gradually spreading toward nearby urban centers like Rockford, South Bend, and Benton Harbor in southwest Michigan. The metropolitan area is also informally known by residents as Chicagoland, a term which may include areas outside the MSA as part of the broader Combined Statistical Area (CSA). The Chicago Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) was originally designated by the United States Census Bureau in nineteen fifty and consisted of the Illinois counties of Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, and Will along with Lake County in Indiana. As surrounding counties saw an increase in their population densities and the number of their residents employed within Cook County, they met Census criteria to be added to the MSA. The Chicago MSA is the third largest MSA by population in the United States with a population of nine million, five hundred five thousand, and seven hundred forty-eight according to a two thousand six estimate. "Chicagoland" is an informal name for the Chicago metropolitan area, used primarily by copywriters, advertising agencies, and traffic reporters. There is no precise definition for the term "Chicagoland," which may be larger than the MSA and include portions of the greater CSA. The Chicago Tribune, which coined the term, includes the city of Chicago, the rest of Cook County, eight nearby Illinois counties; Lake, McHenry, DuPage, Kane, Kendall, Grundy, Will and Kankakee, and two counties in Indiana; Lake and Porter. The Illinois Department of Tourism defines Chicagoland as Cook County without the city of Chicago, and only Lake, DuPage, Kane and Will counties. The Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce defines it as all of Cook, and DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will counties. The suburbs, surrounded by easily annexed flat ground, have been expanding at a tremendous rate since the early nineteen sixties. Naperville is noteworthy for being one of only a few boomburbs outside the Sunbelt, West Coast and Mountain States regions, and exurban Kendall County ranked as the third fastest-growing county in the United States with a population greater than ten thousand between two thousand four and two thousand five.
