Click-to-Call functionality on mobile sites dead as a selling point?

Hey,

don't all smart phones nowadays, by default, allow you to call numbers by just clicking on whatever number text on the screen? Hasn't this eliminated the selling point of this "Click-to-Call button" feature for mobile sites developers?

  • You are looking at it the wrong way !
    Though it is not as big as it once was when it first came out but it is still a great feature that I use to this day !

    There is so many ways to get your foot in the door !

    What I look for is someone that need two services that I am offering .Example mobile site, & social media marketing,etc.

    I sometimes simple just walk into a place and out with a sale without a appointment . I do this very often .. Just look for someone that need to of your services and 1 of them that need to be fixed right away !

    Then head in there like it's a emergency! They need to fix this "Right Now" if not just close the doors because money is shooting out the window and they will not be able to compete with there "biggest competition"

    Give them the second service for free if they fix the first one right now ! Tell them you are not coming back there and they need to act right now if not then their competition has a appointment tomorrow with you and then they will be up against you instead of working with you !

    Just do not except a no for a answer !

    I hope that this helps you and gives gets your mind wondering to come up with a strategy that fits for you ..

    • Thanks for your input ATAC... I know what you mean.

      What I actually meant is that I should not use something like the following, for example, in my selling script: "right now, people can't just call your business through a click of a button... they need to manually type in your number.... but with this click-2-call button.... it is made easier... blabla..."

      Correct? I need to approach another way.

  • why wouldnt anyone want click to call enabled? its handy.

    mobiles sites need to be very simple. click to call, phone, address/map, HOURS OF OPERATION!!!!! (that is a big one missing on many), social media link, email etc.. Put all the basic info on the home page.
  • I use the feature all the time when selling display ads.
