PRWeb Tip: Adding an Extension to Phone Contacts
Since I’m writing a book about online PR, my posts center a lot on the subject. I’m thinking about it A LOT. As always my blog reflects my current adventures.
I recently suggested that PRWeb let you put phone extensions in the media contact. They replied that it’s already possible (but very clumsy).
You can add extensions to the phone number, if you put a + symbol before the extension. For instance: 555-555-5555 +01. As you probably already know, the system will now allow you to type an “x” or “ext” in the phone number for the media contact, but it will allow you to use the “+”.
Thanks PRWeb – I wish I knew that sooner!
