Use SMS txting easy for your customers.

[donnk]

I helped a friend of mine (window cleaner) setup a dead easy way to keep his customers updated. Like most folks nealry all of them txt him and vice versa. So when he needs to send the same message to all of them it took him ages. 

 

I signed him up with a cheapo online txt service (there are loads we used fastsms.co.uk). 

 

Next was the painfull bit, we created an email contact on his PC for every person off his phone, the email format is [email protected]. This took a while but only has to be done once and them kept upto date with new customers.

 

Now the easy bit, he is off on hols for two weeks and needs to let them all know. He starts a new email and BLIND BCC adds all the contacts from the step above. Adds the message and hits send. Job done 322 txt's are sent immedialty. Took him less then 2 mins.

 

Obviously this has marketing options for you wood choppers to keep your customers up to date / christmas sales etc so thought id mention it.

Sounds useful.  I doubt GDPR applies either if contacting existing customers
