Make Your Cell Phone Work For You

txtmailer — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 04:23:32 +0000

Do me a favor, would you? Open up whatever Internet web browser you prefer, go to whatever search engine you fancy, and type in “cell phone usage.” You’ll find that cell phones are the norm, no longer an oddity. Remember watching television in the early 1990’s? There was an episode of Saved By the Bell where the main character, Zack, whipped out his cell phone to call his father; if you recall the episode, his cell phone was the size of his head and it was a rare spectacle to see a teenager with a phone. Fast forward 15 years, and it’s a rare spectacle to hear a teenager say, “I don’t have a cell phone.”

Now, take a look at your own life. Where is your cell phone right now?
Mine is sitting right next to me as I type, waiting for the next person to text me or blackberry message me. What’s my point now, you ask? If we as a nation are so reliant on our cell phones, why are we so hesitant to make them work for us? Txtmailer is the only source for businesses throughout the country that can send text messages directly to the cell phone notifying you of sales and promotions. Txtmailer allows you to browse through their site and pick the company you want to receive text message coupons from. Visit www.txtmailer.com and check out how you can truly make your cell phone work for you.

Cell Phones, The Next Tool For Advertising

txtmailer — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 20:42:24 +0000

Have you ever left home without your cell and had that creeping “I feel so naked without it” sensation crawl all over your body? Are you co-dependent on your blackberry or iPhone? As of 2005, there were an estimated 2.5 billion cell phone users. In the United Kingdom, there are more cell phones than there are people. Approximately half of all school aged children in the United States own their own cell, and they “have become an imagined necessity” amongst people all over the world (http://www.cellnumbers.com/cell-phone-usage.aspx). More than 72 percent of the United States population owns a cell phone, and more than 8.4 percent of all households in the US are relying exclusively on their wireless providers for their telephone service with an average user replacing his or her cell phone every 18 months (http://www.wirefly.org/news/cell-phone-facts.php).. There is an untapped market of users waiting for the latest application to hit his or her cell phone to keep them atop of their coworkers, peers, and family members..

Txtmailer is the only online advertising agency that allows you, the business owner, to directly tap the billions of cell phone users with specific advertisements about your company. According to the International Telecommunications Union, “one-third of 18 to 29 year olds only use a cell phone” for communicating and about half of the US population over the age of 30 only uses a cell phone (http://www.itu.int/ITU-D/ict/newslog/Cell+Phone+Usage+Continues+To+Increase+In+The+USA.aspx).

This is an unprecedented number of cell phone users, and the numbers are only expected to continue to rise. Txtmailer is the only source in the country to have the technology and the resources to provide your company with this untapped population of clients. Your company has the potential to reach thousands of users a day. For more information, please visit our website at www.txtmailer.com and find out how you can save money, find new clients, and promote your company to potential clients who actually want to hear from you.

In The Know

txtmailer — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 20:34:20 +0000

I have always been one of those people who had to be “in the know;” one of those lucky few who had the latest and greatest of everything first and foremost. I had to have the latest “it” phone, dine at the latest restaurants, and shop the greatest sales. My only problem? How was I ever going to afford such a lavish spending habit on my salary? Not only that, how was I ever to know when all these stores were having such amazing sales? I know you can sign up for email reminders, but I don’t carry a printer around in my back pocket to print out the “passports” for all these secret sales. Just that feature alone makes Txtmailer the most innovative website you can find for savvy shoppers and cell phone users.

Txtmailer is a one of a kind website that allows you to sign up, browse through an exclusive list of retailers and service providers, and receive text messages alerting you to sales, discounts, and special events that you might not otherwise have had known about. The best part? The service is free and spam free! You never have to print anything, either. You flash your cell phone, get a discount, and you are on your way. Or better yet, you flash your cell phone and you have access to that intimate little sale you heard about the other day that was “invite only” at your favorite retailer. Don’t be left behind; join the thousands of users who have already benefitted from our private list of retailers and be among the elite who are “in the know.”

Limits to Recycling

txtmailer — Fri, 29 May 2009 15:09:32 +0000

According to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality, it costs $11,771,160 to run the recycling program for the state. The recycling plan for the city of Phoenix costs $5,291,000 annually, and Mesa costs roughly $3,364,656. In total, the recycling plans in the Phoenix Metro area saved $2,876,483 from the cost of running landfills, incinerators, and other trash disposal methods. More detailed information can be found on the ADEQ website proper, but let’s exam these numbers more closely.

Junk mail makes up 35 billion tons of waste a year, recycling costs Arizona nearly 12 million dollars, and the savings is minimal. Also, examine the rules for recycling: “Junk mail – includes non self-sealing envelopes. Remove plastic credit cards or bags. Previous literature may say no plastic windowed envelopes, however improvements at paper recycling plants allow for these windows to be strained out of the paper pulp mix. It is still good recycling habit to tear the window out, however it is not necessary.” How many of you actually sit and tear the plastic windows out of an envelope and do they even make non self-sealing envelopes anymore? Continuing with the rules: “NO HARDBACK OR PAPERBACK BOOKS, SELF SEALING ENVELOPES, PHOTOGRAPHS, EMBOSSED CARDS OR WRAPPING PAPER, MYLAR BALLOONS, NEWSPAPER PLASTIC BAGS, RUBBER BANDS OR BLUEPRINTS.
All of these items cannot be recycled with regular paper. They cause de-inking and pulping processes to be disrupted and reduce the value of acceptable paper items.” Don’t forget, the recycling plants won’t accept shredded paper either. So, don’t shred the trash with your personal information on it, tear out the little plastic envelope, forget those postcard like mass mailings you get for ads on saving money on a new ceiling fan, and while you’re at it, why don’t you personally figure out how to recycle paper. However, there are ways to eliminate this problem from your life all together. Opt out of junk mail at the direct mail marketers’ website, and opt into Txtmailer.com!

Txtmailer is an innovative way to receive discounts without using any natural resources. Log in to our website, pick the types of companies you want to hear from, and receive text message alerts with directions on how to save money. The service is completely free, you never have to print out our messages, and you can pick how many or how few alerts you receive per month! Stop filling your mailbox with junk, and stop filling our recycling plants with paper they can’t even recycle. Join the thousands of other savvy shoppers on Txtmailer.com and start saving today!

The Most Expensive Liquid?

txtmailer — Fri, 29 May 2009 15:00:37 +0000

With the way the economy is going and the non-stop talk about global warming, more and more companies are going green. Yet, have you noticed that some so called “green” companies aren’t really green? They’re just faking it? Take for instance direct mail coupons. Now, you can sign up online and have the coupons delivered to your email inbox. Guess what! You still have to print those coupons in order to use them. For example, think about your favorite retailer. How many times have they said, “oh, can we have your email address? Special promotions will be emailed to you.” You still have to print those special promotions and bring them into the store in order for it to work. Txtmailer is different and truly green. You never have to print the coupons texted to your cell phone in order for them to work. There is no special barcode that needs to be scanned, no special promotion code that needs to be printed, just a specific text message that you can easily and conveniently flash at any sales associate in order for your discount to work. Not only will you save trees, but you will save money on printer ink! Just think, according to an article on “Connected Internet,” printer ink accounted for “more than 50% of fiscal 2004 profits for the HP” (http://www.connectedinternet.co.uk/2007/06/17/why-do-printer-ink-cartridges-cost-so-much/). Likewise, “some cartridges [are] costing up to $100 each for a measly 20ml, making printer ink one of the most expensive liquids on the planet” (www.connectedinternet.co.uk…). Do the math on that expense alone! Don’t waste our resources; flash a cell phone, save a tree, and save your ink! Visit txtmailer.com for full details on how easy it is to save money.

Easy Savings.

txtmailer — Sun, 24 May 2009 01:31:44 +0000

When you went to college, did any one professor stand up at the front of the room and say, “You will need to make 50,000 dollars a year in order to survive?” In the Phoenix metro area, it is estimated that the average household income is just shy of that mark (http://www.phoenixhomezone….). As of May 2009, the average college graduate can expect to make 46,000 dollars annually, with those who possess art degrees expecting to make about 30,000 dollars annually and engineers can expect to make near to 60,000 dollars annually (http://www.simplyhired.com/…). In other words, the average 2009 college graduate is going to make “just enough” to get by according to the current cost of living. Making “just enough” does not leave much room for error in budget calculating, let alone leaving any room for dry cleaning that expensive suit you purchased for job
interviews.

To exacerbate the issue, the graduating class of 2009 has actually seen a drop in post-graduate job offers as well as in salary expectations. The overall average salary is down by 2.2 percent, and 42 percent of all disciplines are experiencing a down turn in salaries (http://www.collegerecruiter…). This downward trend in starting salaries only reinforces the need for some financial relief. Fortunately, there are companies like Txtmailer that offer just that.

Imagine a company that provides for you a data base of companies that you actually shop at: dry cleaners, department stores, coffee shops, bowling alleys, you name it. Take that data base and imagine you can pick and choose the different specialties of stores and have them send you text messages filled with savings to your personal cell phone. Also, imagine that the service is spam free, and that the service is completely free to use. Now, visit the Txtmailer.com website and experience our free database of text message delivering companies and experience a dream come true.

Every Penny Counts!

save money with txtmailer, txtmailer.com

I suppose money is one of those ideals that everyone talks about having but that no one actually has. Perhaps that just happens to be the social norm of a college-aged person? Or perhaps it’s a testament to the current economic crisis this country is facing? Here are some exciting statistics that will nauseate your wallet:
The average cost to attend Arizona State University is $5,661 per year for “in-state” and $17,949 for “out of state” tuition. Each credit hour costs roughly $400 for “in-state” and $800 for “out of state.” The average ASU graduate owes $17,732 in student loans, and only 48% of the student body works. http://collegesearch.collegeboard.com/search/CollegeDetail.jsp?collegeId=1094&profileId=2

Look at those statistics again. There are so many factors working against young adults in America today; is it really a surprise that the majority of us cannot afford the lavish college experience of yesteryear? How many times have you caught yourself saying, “sure, I’d love to go with you, but I can’t afford to buy anything right now?” Or perhaps you were “that guy” who only ate appetizers during happy hour because they happened to be half price? Wouldn’t being able to eat an entrée at half price have tasted better? According to costopedia, you would need nearly $22,000 per school year to attend ASU and eat three whole meals a day; mind you, that is eating in the cafeteria every day, too (http://www.costopedia.com/costs/2009-2010-university-attendance-fees/arizona-state-university/). However, wouldn’t it be more fun to be able to pick and choose where you get your discounts at, and wouldn’t it be more fun if they were at restaurants and bars you actually liked to eat at?

Txtmailer is the only network available that offers you an opportunity to use your cell phone to save money. You can limit the number of offers you receive, you can pick the places you receive offers from, and if you find yourself not using the data base at all, you can always opt out and close your account. Here’s how it works: log in at txtmailer.com, enter your cell phone number, your email address, and pick the type of places you would want to save money from. For example, let’s say you have a pizza fetish. You can pick to receive savings from your favorite pizza restaurants only. You will start receiving text message notifications from those pizza joints with coupons right to your cell phone. In other words, you’ll be able to eat a real meal for a change just by flashing a text message at the waiter. The best part of the service: it is completely free to use. Just think of it as free money and a way to get out of having to eat microwaveable noodles every day for four years.

JUNK MAIL WARS!

txtmailer — Tue, 19 May 2009 05:38:47 +0000

Recycling, while not a novel concept, has recently undergone a revolution of sorts in the hearts of Americans. The idea of going green has never been promoted more in television, movies, and major consumer markets. You cannot escape the constant reminders that global warming is real, the waste stream is out of control, and resources are limited; yet, even in this “green” minded economy, trees are being wasted thoughtlessly by the Direct Marketing businesses, or what I like to refer to as junk mail. According to a study published by Oberlin University, each American recycled approximately 360 pounds of paper in 2007, but only 48 percent of “office paper” was recycled that year. In other words, all that junk mail is still being thrown away. The EPA estimates that “recycling 1 ton of paper saves 17 mature trees, 7,000 gallons of water, 3 cubic yards of landfill space, 2 barrels of oil, and 4,100 kilowatt-hours of electricity — enough energy to power the average American home for five months” (http://www.oberlin.edu/recycle/facts.html). What would happen if junk mail were stopped entirely? Would an entire rainforest be saved?

Junk mail can easily be stopped, and a much more eco friendly resource for coupons and deals is reachable by fingertips: Txtmailer. Each year “the average household throws away 13,000 separate pieces of paper…most is packaging and junk mail” (http://www.recycling-revolution.com/recycling-facts.html). What does that translate to? The “average American uses seven trees a year in paper, wood, and other products made from trees. This amounts to about 2,000,000,000 trees per year!” (recycling-revolution.com). A single Sunday paper requires 500,000 trees to die. If you received those same advertisements you were looking for on your cell phone rather than in the newspaper or the mail box, potentially, you could save 75,000 trees (recycling-revolution.com). Here is some food for thought: Txtmailer is an online advertising agency that allows YOU the consumer to browse our database, select the types of businesses you would like to hear from, set the number of advertisements you would like to receive, and wait for advertisements and deals to come to your cell phone. Let’s take a moment to look at this again – a single New York Times equals 75,000 trees, a single text message equals no trees. The average American uses seven trees a year in paper, but what if you cut out junk mail? What if the only thing you received in the mail was mail, and all your advertisements came to your cell phone? And those advertisements were hand-picked by you? No more advertisements coming in your mail box that you did not ask for. Direct Marketing is easy to opt out of, which keeps you from having to kill a tree because someone wants to sell you a giant green horseshoe: https://www.dmachoice.org/dma/member/regist.action
