800 Response and Infosurv
recently commissioned a study that looked at the habits of 1,000
consumers when they were presented with an advertisement that contained
a toll free number and a web address. They found that consumers were
45% more likely to remember the vanity toll free number of a company
rather than its website. In one instance, a fictional ad for an auto
dealer called Bayside Auto Sales presented a vanity toll free number
of 800-new-auto and a website of baysideautosales.com. Respondents were
52% more likely to remember the vanity number over the website, even
though the website reflected the exact company name of the auto dealer.

This study was carried out across multiple industries: automotive, home improvement, wireless,
education, and health care, using both visual and audio advertising.

Even though Vanity toll free numbers are becoming a little more
difficult to create, it still makes good business sense to include them
along with a website in advertising. And remember, this study applies
to vanity toll free numbers only. The same statistics do not apply to
digit-based toll free numbers. The meaning is clear: if you want to
maximize leads, your business needs a vanity toll free number.
