Web-based text messaging service.

The majority of the population uses mobile phones. Increasingly these mobile phones are being used to provide other services. The Short Message Service (SMS) or “texting” as it is now called has become ubiquitous.

SMS can be used to provide information feeds to people about events such as the latest scores in a football match, major news headline or a stock market price.

Lister Text makes it possible to provide a far higher degree of message tailoring. The following examples outline how a business might want to use the service.

Convenient communication

Its much easier to send a message using your standard keyboard instantly than using a mobile phone keypad.

Alpha Tagging

When texting your employees or customers, for a small monthly fee your company’s name (up to a maximum of 11 character’s) can be displayed as the sender on the screen.

Use it to advertise

Use your client list as a tool for running a targeted marketing campaign. You know its getting direct to the person you want and not getting filed in the bin along with all the other junk mail.
