How to Use Virtual Numbers in a Multifunctional Way — Not Just for ChatGPT

I recently got a virtual number to use with ChatGPT, but now I’m realizing it could be handy for other things too. For example, I run a small online store and often have to give out my contact number to customers. I’m not really comfortable sharing my personal one though. Has anyone tried using virtual numbers for multiple tasks — like business, social media, or even AI chatbot registration? Curious to know if it’s practical or gets messy managing different uses.

Yeah, totally! I’ve been using one virtual number for ChatGPT during AI chatbot registration and also for managing a few online ads and side gigs. It’s been super convenient since I can keep work stuff separate from personal calls. Plus, you can set up forwarding or use voicemail if you don’t want to miss anything. I even used it for signing up on delivery apps that spam less now because my real number stays private.
