I have a business plan with vodafone which includes 2000 anytime mins 500 texts but most of all unlimited uk landline calls and all for £50 a month,   oh and I got a 32 gb Iphone which went straight on ebay and sold for £450

You're spending all that on a contract and didn't even keep the iPhone? ??? Mad!

I'm only paying £30 a month for iPhone 4!

I was not asking what to put on my text messages, Just if anyone did it a better way than typing into phone every time, Its obvious what to write  ::) :P
Thanks for replies anyway lads, Think I may as well just put customers I need to text to leave gate in my phone memory

thing is mate I make a hell of a lot of calls so the 2000 mins is just right for me and I only need a phone to make calls with and text and my trusty samsung d600 which Ive had for 5 years does just that.

as I say I got £450 for the iphone which pays for 5 months so thats how I look at it,   my last 4 upgrades have all sold well on ebay and its not the phone I want but the minutes and free uk landline calls


does anyone get more than 2000 mins on their contract ?

I get 300 minutes, and I fully expect to have about 270 left over most months.
Hardly ever ring people. When I do it's mostly landline, and I have free calls from mine.

same here 500 minutes free and never use a fraction of that and landlines free, and I spend about 50p per month on texts for 15 quid

my phone is for receiving calls not making them

you see stu I use mine to make calls as I call my daughter several times a week and other family members

the 2000 mins is just right for me and I remeber when I used to have 800 mins each month and still went over so now I pay the same £50 bill each month

and as its on a business tariff I can claim for it

Can't you group your customers on your phone in weekly, monthly etc then txt then group the night before.

I'd be interested to find out about your pricing scheme mr SMS.

There's no PM here that I know of mate.  But reading this thread gives me ideas as I'm a techie by trade, I have contacts in your trade that I might seek prices from, if you can drop me an e-mail with your prices I might be interested at some point.

Cheers

Or you could automate it with a click of a button yo bulk send and appear on the customers phone with your company name.

Every window cleaner is different I suppose, some more professional than others, some faster at cleaning, I am just interested in finding out how you all communicate with your happy customers and if you could communicate more efficiently what would you do?

SMS
Perhaps i'm missing the point.Perhaps you are.If a window cleaner has 500 customers, he might text three to unlock gates the following day- he might text twenty if he texts them all.

The idea of texting all 500, (hi crystal clean are doing a good deal on gutter cleans for the spring, specially discounted for our existing customers to £50 text back if you would like to be included) is not something i have heard of.But not unthinkable.
