Or a one-man-and-a-dog operation and he's not managed to train the dog to
answer the
landline.  "What's the quality of his work like?"  "Ruff."

A harder one is a farm offering some sort of service.  Perhaps they have a
holiday cottage or
two on the farm (I've mapped a few like that).  They may have both a
landline and a mobile but,
because they're often out and about on the farm (if it's a working farm) or
cleaning the holiday
cottage between visitors) suggest you use their mobile rather than their
landline.  Or don't even
bother to give a landline number,. just the mobile.

It's not always easy to decide whether to map the landline or the mobile.
