A vanity phone number is a customized, memorable phone number that spells out a word, phrase, or pattern that relates to your business using the letters associated with each number on a telephone keypad. For example, 1-800-FLOWERS (1-800-356-9377) or 1-888-CALL-NOW (1-888-225-5669). These numbers serve as both a contact method and a powerful marketing tool that helps customers remember how to reach your business.
