Text for Success!
Let me tell you straight, 90% of text messages are not read in the first 3 minutes, those two reports are quite questionable. It's understandable though, because the graph and the report were created by marketing firms. Simplest marketing trick in the book, say 90% of people love a product and the sheep will follow. So putting away that nonsense, since I'm not here to sell you a mobile plan or a new marketing scheme, and focus on the benefits of texting.
You must have heard of Donald Trump, you also might have heard that he loves to tweet, his a pro, to millions of people worldwide. Why does he do that, and what does twitter have to do with texting? Well recently paleoanthropologists decided to look at modern man in order to understand the ancient cave dwelling dude. Why did the ancient cave dwelling dude paint such simple and beautiful cave paintings (which puts modern art in the dump where it belongs), the answer was simple and Donald Trump proved this. To tell a story, but not any story, a story of how hugely awesome he is. Every time one of those lovely cave dwelling chicks passed the awesome art they were reminded that the cave dwelling dude was awesome, and he didn't have to lift a finger. So Donald Trump, not being an artist himself, had to think of another way to remind people that he is awesome all the time, and twitter texting was the way to go.
You, like me, might not have such a huge following, and you, like me, may not want to share information about yourself with everyone, but would like to target a lovely human. Texting is the way to go, with your laser sighted text message you can precisely and constantly share with your tribe how hugely awesome you are.
You might be wondering, how? what do I say in a text message that will make me sound awesome. Unfortunately I cannot help you, I've just given you the tools , it's up to you to become awesome and share it with your friends.
