I have found these fantastic phone options. and all marketers are going to want to see what I have found. We have been fighting with the government and all of the texting platforms that are out there. I personally have tried almost all of them out there for my business and I keep getting blocked. They all think that I am a telemarketer or scammer. Which I am not. I am just trying to run my own business and trying to get more people into our system.
The phone options that have changed my business for the better
So with being blocked from multiple texting platforms, I was getting pretty discouraged on ways to run my business with. So after doing some research and knowing that anything that I do for my business can be a tax write-off, I found this fantastic phone option.
I am sure that you can go to Target, Best Buy, and all of the cell phone companies out there, but I went to Walmart to do my research. What I have found has changed my life for the better I have only been using this option for a couple of months and I won’t go back any other way.
If you go to the electronics department you can purchase a phone and minutes for about 70 dollars. So with that, I get my own cell phone, and then with the minutes ( you get unlimited texts and calls). You will also get 5 GB of data but I haven’t even used hardly any of my data because I mainly use the phone while I am at home and I just use my Wifi for my data. Then I just pay 35 a month to keep my service. Which is a lot cheaper than what I am paying for my personal cellphone plan.
I use AT&T, but at Walmart, they have different plans and phone options to choose from. You can pick from TracFone, and Verizon, there is a Walmart plan, Straight Talk, Simple Mobile, Boost Mobile, Us Cellular, and I am sure there are others.
Different types of platforms that I have used
- Text Now– you can bring your phone number if you would like or you could get a new number. They also have where you can purchase data (for 1 GB it is 8.99). This is a free service.
- Text Free– they have been trusted by over 130 Million users. You get a new phone number and if you are using WiFi coverage you can use it anywhere. This is a free service.
- DialPad– This can be used if you have a business with multiple phone lines. The starting cost for this program starts at 15.99 a month and goes up. But if you do have multiple phone lines then this might be the best option for you.
- OpenPhone- This can also be used for a business with multiple lines. It starts out at 17.00 per month and is 5.00 for each additional line that you would like to have. You can also get your voice mails translated into text. This option was my favorite until I found my newest phone option.
- GoogleVoice- this option is free and is part of the Google package. We here at RRR247 just Google every day all day. So this would be a great option that could be linked to any of your computers that use Google.
But I am sure there are plenty of other options out there that many people have used. These are just some that I have tried for the last year.
