Forget The Phone, Just Text Message Instead,
Part 2
Author: Adrian Adams

Text messaging is not just for the kids. Today businesses are
using text messaging more often for a variety of different
reasons. They can be used to communicate with family, friends,
partners, colleagues, and even customers and clients. Let's take
a look at some of the great ways text messaging and business go
together:

•Meeting Reminders
•Appointment Reminders
•Important Business Information for employees
•Business Contacts
•Confirmation
•Advertisement
•Promotions
•Sales
•Sales Confirmation

In business, text messaging can be of great use. You can, with
permission, send new promotions, advertisements, and sales to
the cell phone of your clients and customers. This works well,
especially if you have permission to send the messages, because
not everyone appreciates telephone calls in their busy lives.
Furthermore, clients and customers may not have the time to
listen to a lengthy telephone call, telephone message, or even
read any mail you might send. A text message is quick and to the
point.

Text messaging is a great way to follow up with a potential
client or customer as well. For example, after the initial
meeting with a potential client, you could send a text message
thanking them for meeting with you and provide your contact
information.

There are so many beneficial advantages to using text messaging
within a business that it would be impossible to list them all.
However, it is important that you understand just what text
messaging can do for your business, clients, and customer
service.

Text Messaging and Family

Along with the teens and businesses, text messaging with family
is a great value as well. Text messages can work great within
the family to remind loved ones of appointments, dinner,
schedule changes, or even just to say hi. Many families use text
messaging just because it is easier than trying to reach each
other on the phone, particularly if one is at school or work at
the time.

You could text message dad to remind him about soccer practice.
If your rehearsals end early, you can text message to let your
parents know it is time to pick you up. If you are wondering
what to get for dinner, you can text message the family to ask
for suggestions. If you need your husband or wife to pick up
something on the way home, you can text message them to ask
them.
