Why do legitimate businesses still get flagged as spam?
Even with a recognizable area code like 206, unknown local numbers still trigger call screening on iPhone and Android. Buyers see "Spam Likely" or no caller ID, and they let the call ring out. The result is missed appointments, lost leads, and slower deals.
