organizations

Teams can announce a schedule or location change for a meeting, practice or game.

Instructors can send a message to parents or students about current concerns or upcoming events.

Clubs, agencies, religious or fraternal organizations can recruit assistance.

In other words, anyone can send a Smoke Signal and anyone with a phone can get the message!

When the phone rings, you pick up the handset and you hear, “This is an appointment reminder from your employment office. We are calling to remind you of an upcoming appointment with the Social Worker, Sandy Brown Monday at 7 in the morning at the Billoby office. If you cannot make this appointment call 123-333-1111. See you then. Again, …”

The Message is Important …and will be Acknowledged Because the Message is Personalized and Specific!

To document results - After a Smoke Signal is sent you get a report including the text of the message, the time it was sent and the name and number it was sent to.

To reduce expenses - Your staff will no longer need to make contact calls or to send reminders; reduce expenditures needed to pay postage; and you should experience far fewer missed appointments.

To ensure a bulletin is received - Because of the prevalence of quantities of “junk mail”, sometimes important messages can be accidentally overlooked. You may now send an ALERT to either a future message, or flag a recently sent message!

To save time - Instead of just sending an e-mail that may not be read immediately, send a voice SMS (text) that is often viewed as soon as it is received!
