North Louisiana, not New Orleans

People in Shreveport and Monroe can tell a 504 number from one of their own.

318 has covered the northern half of the state since 1957, and it carries a different identity from the south. It is the code of the Red River in Shreveport, the Ouachita in Monroe and the crossroads town of Alexandria. Calling from 318 shows you are part of that world. It gives customers one less reason to screen your call.

Three hubs, one line

The 318 area is spread out, with business clustered around a few regional centers.

Shreveport and Bossier City bring healthcare, casinos and energy, Monroe leans on education and medicine, and Alexandria serves central Louisiana. A virtual 318 number lets a single team cover all three without offices in each. The area also borders Texas and Arkansas, so it is a natural base for businesses serving the Ark-La-Tex. Calls ring on the desktop and mobile apps.

Help on every call

A missed call in a close-knit market is a missed referral too.

Allo's AI receptionist picks up any time your team cannot, and forwards the calls that need a human. Every conversation can be recorded and summarized, so follow-ups start with the details. Notes flow into HubSpot, Salesforce or Pipedrive, and your team can text customers from the same 318 number.
