Effective Use of Your Pager

Your pager can help you keep in contact with every-

one important to you . . . your children or child care

providers, business associates, data services, and

voice mail.Be sure that your children’s school, physi-

cian, and friends have the number to contact you in

emergencies.

Give your pager number to family, friends, and asso-

ciates to assure contact at any time, any place.When

they call your pager number, they enter the number

where they can be reached on a tone-type tele-

phone.This number is then displayed on your pager.

If you have a cellular phone, give your pager number

instead of your cellular number.Then you can decide

who to call back, without paying for incoming cellular

calls.Your pager can help reduce your monthly cellu-

lar phone bill!

Include your pager number on your business cards

and on your answering machine or voice mail mes-

sage.
