Shop text
They get a text. You do not call.
The writer is on the phone. The line is a queue. The customer is in the lot. A restaurant, a shop, a salon, a plumber on the road. You send a short text from the number you already took. They do not need an app. You do not need a new phone plan. We do not run a house text account. You keep the desk.
What you send
A number and a line. That is the whole message.
- The number you already have for the ticket or the table
- The one line you want sent
- Who in the shop is allowed to send
What they get
A text on the phone they already use.
- A text on their phone
- An email instead, if that is what you have
- A record that it went out
What you pay
Pennies per text. No new phone plan.
Texts are pennies. No monthly software. No extra phone paperwork.
Quote this job.
Maryland, DC, and Virginia. Say the address and how you want it used.
