FACEBOOK FANPAGE BUSINESS (part2)

Welcome back!!! Like I said in my previous post, I'll be throwing more light on how to startup facebook fanpage business. You don't have to be computer/Internet guru to start making money in this business, all you need is the basic knowledge of surfing the Internet and using facebook website.
WHAT ARE THE THINGS NEEDED?
1. You need to have access to Internet (not necessarily 24hrs Internet access). At-least 1hr Internet access whenever you want to work will be okay.

2. You need to have a Facebook account.

3. A means of communication, either or both 24hrs available Mobile Phone Number or Email Address.

4. Above all, you must know how to create a professional Facebook fan page. If you don't know how to do it, read Mahalo's post on How To Make A Facebook Fan Page.

SMS MARKETING TOOL FOR YOR BUSINESS

As an entrepreneur you might at one point asked your self which marketing medium will be best for your business. There are lots of marketing media one can use, but the most frequently used on the internet is email marketing. Most entrepreneurs make use of email marketing, but that doesn't mean it is the best or it converts best. What every business owner want is the best possible means to reach his customers/audience, and I don't think Email Marketing is the right medium to get that. Why?

• Do you know 90% of all emails are spam? Compare that to only 1% of text messages.

• Do you know that only 34% of people use their mobile phones to email? Compare that to 72% of people who use text messaging on their mobile phones.

• Do you know that only 22% of all emails are opened? Compare that to 98% of text messages.

• Do you know the average person receives 1,216 emails per month? Compare that to only 178 text messages.

All these are statistical reasons why SMS Marketing is better of than Email Marketing. I was discussing with a colleague about Marketing Campaigns, after giving him reasons why I prefer SMS Marketing to Email Marketing, his question was "... is there any good SMS Marketing Tool online?". When I say SMS Marketing Tool I don't just mean Bulk SMS Service, it means more than just that.
There are certain features in an SMS Marketing Tool which is not in a Bulk SMS Service, like
1. SMS CONTEST: Allows customers to enter a contest from their mobile phone

 via Text Message. This is an amazing unique service which you'll not find in a Bulk SMS service. SMS Marketing Tools should also be able to randomly choose the winner of the contest in seconds.
