Arranging to meet people

What do we say in the invite?  Not much!

How do we do the invite? By SMS / Txt Msg or Phone

Texting works far better than using the phone for setting up most meetings in our current hectic lives.

 

Why does using text msgs work so well?

Take a look at teenagers and what is becoming the normal way of staying in touch and arranging to meet up?  SMS, FB, Viber, WhatsApp, etc.  People are ignoring either conciously or unconciously a ringing phone.  However, observe what happens when someone receives an incoming message alert!  It's irresistable!

 

  • No emotion
  • Brief, not much is said
  • People feel valued
  • It's about building relationships
  • It's about not rushing things in an abnormal way
  • Don't upset family and friends
  • Lots of appointments get made, typically > 50%
  • Less falling by the wayside from rejection
