Does your business have a need to remind people of their appointments on a regular basis? If so would it not be nice to automate that system and send an email or text message reminder to the client about their upcomming appointment? If you could save hours a week having your employees do other tasks would their day not be more effective? We can add this feature to your website and allow your clients the ability to receive their reminders when and how they want them. About 134 million American adults have cell phones and 27% of them say they have used the text message feature on those phones within the past month. That represents 34 million people who use a cell feature also known as short message service or SMS. Of those who use the texting feature on their phones, 28% say they have received unsolicited commercial text messages on their phone. The findings come from a nationwide phone survey of 1,460 cell phone users by the Pew Internet & American Life Project between January 13 and February 9.

The most likely cell phone texters are in Generation Y (ages 18-27). Fully 63% of those with cell phones in that cohort are texters, compared to 31% of cell phone owners in Generation X (ages 28-39), 18% of cell phone owners among younger Baby Boomers (age 40-49), 13% of cell phone owners among older Baby Boomers (ages 50-58), and 7% of cell phone owners among those over age 60. "The proliferation of cell phones and the spread of text messaging are changing patterns of commuication for many Americans -- espeically younger ones," said Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Internet & American Life Project.

• Use YouTube Video
  YouTube is quickly becoming a powerful marketing tool. Creating a YouTube video can be fun and rewarding. The most important thing to consider when you are trying to create a YouTube video is that it needs to be something unique, informative, funny or something that captures the attention of the audience’s interest level. Videos don’t always have to be relevant to your business to help you to drive website traffic to your site. For example, if someone sees a great video on YouTube that takes them directly to a business website, they may stay on the site and take time to click on an ad or to opt-in for something while they are there.

For more information on any of these and other techniques, give us a call or send us an email.
