Get a 214 business number
When you sign up for Onyx Phone, you pick a local number by area code: search 214, narrow it by the next three digits or the last four if you want something memorable, and it's yours on the spot. Which numbers are free changes daily. If you don't find one you like, 469, 945, and 972 cover the same area.
The number rings everyone you assign to it, in the browser, on the iPhone and Android apps, and on desk phones, and texts from it are unlimited once US carriers approve your business. Your plan includes one number for each user, and more numbers are $5 a month.

Local calls in 214 are dialed with all ten digits: the area code, then the number. Callers are on Central time, so set your business hours to match if most of your customers are here.
Calls from Onyx Phone show your business number, and once your business is verified, your caller ID name too, so 214 customers see who's calling.
