Voicemail “at a glance”

This is a neat automation trick to help you keep focussed on the business at hand and avoid distractions. SimulScribe is a subscription based service that will check your voice messages for you and send them to you to read rather than listening to them yourself. Here’s what they have to say:

• SimulScribe converts your voicemail into text messages and then sends them directly to your mobile phone, Blackberry, Goodlink enabled phone and/or your email account.

  You can instantly see who has called and what they said, whether you are sitting in a business meeting or traveling on the road. Your voicemail functionality does not change; it can still be listened to and stored for later use.

Right now you can give SimulScribe a test drive for one week before purchasing… plans start at $9.95 a month after the one week trial.

I’ve used SimulScribe for nearly a month now. I appreciate how easy it is to use, although there are instances where the service doesn’t understand every single word that’s said in the message. I still think it’s a great time saver… when I have to clear voice messages, I usually write down the names and callback numbers anyhow. It’s nice to eliminate that step and move to greater efficiency.
