BULK SMS BUSINESS
The primary objective of this proposal is to tell you how you can deploy a reseller SMS Business to sell SMS units to churches, politicians (especially as 2011 is drawing near), schools, businesses, etc. 
 
You will agree that the GSM and other related applications such as SMS (text messages) have dramatically changed the way we live.   SMS (text messages) have proven to be a powerful and effective communication tool.   With the recent explosion in the Nigerian Telecommunications industry, more than 70 million Nigerians now own a mobile phone and can be reached via text messages.   

Banks and other organizations have realized the power of sending personalized text messages and have since integrated SMS into their systems in many aspects of service delivery such as account transaction notifications, e-banking, etc.   Effective use of SMS (text messaging) will help organizations to brand their business through their customized text messages. 

The use of Bulk SMS to reach a targeted and very wide market is quickly becoming the CHEAPEST and MOST EFFECTIVE way of reaching customers.   You are sure to reap a lot of benefits by starting a Bulk SMS business. 

E-MESSAGING TECHNOLOGY
E-Messaging (popularly referred to as Bulk SMS) is a cost effective means of reaching a targeted audience with CUSTOMIZED TEXT MESSAGES.   The messages will have a unique Sender ID, which will be the name of the organization sending the messages (in this case, your church).   Since the messages are sent directly to the mobile phones of the recipients, it is a great way of reaching them directly.   The messages are usually sent via a browser over the internet, and our technology has the ability to send and deliver more than 10,000 text messages simultaneously with the click of a mouse button!

Our delivery reports ensure that you can verify that the messages have reached the phones of the intended recipients.   You can also use our technology to schedule messages in advance and at specified intervals.   With our technical partners in Europe providing the infrastructural backbone and technical support, you are assured of superior service delivery. 

PROFIT POTENTIALS
The profit margins from this business are very good, and will make sense when you have a lot of volume.   This is also enhanced by the fact that SMS credits are not renewable.   Once used up, they have to be replenished by your clients.   As such, when you have a group of steady and consistent clients you will be assured of making money from them repeatedly.   

Let us work out the profitability model based on a monthly volume of 50,000 SMS units. 

Assuming you can sell up to 50,000 SMS credits a month to several users at N5 per SMS, you can then be sure of a total net of N250, 000 a month.   If you purchased the 50,000 credits at a cost of N2.  50 (the highest wholesale unit price), then the profits to you is:
                                           (N5 ?N2.  50) X 50,000 = N125, 000

This is a conservative estimate and if you can sell more SMS credits a month, you will make more money. 

HOW TO BEGIN
Implementing your E-Messaging business will require:
1.     Setting up the Bulk SMS gateway for you. 
2.     A website from where you will connect to the SMS gateway, and from where your clients can login to send their SMS credits. 
3.     Purchasing the SMS credits at wholesale price from the gateway providers through us. 

YOUR INVESTMENT
1.     Setting up your Bulk SMS gateway connected to your website (with one year web hosting and domain name included) costs Thirty Thousand Naira (N20, 000) only.   This price is negotiable. 

2.     SMS Credits: After setting up your website and gateway, you will then be required to purchase SMS credits at a discounted price from the gateway providers.  .   One (1) SMS credit is equivalent to 1 SMS message.   See our price list below:

10,000 ? 49,999 SMS           N2.  50 per SMS
50,000 ? 99,999 SMS        N2.  30 per SMS
100,000 ? 199,000 SMS    N2.  10 per SMS
200,000 SMS and above    N1.  95 per SMS

These prices represent the current exchange rate of SMS credits in Euros, and are subject to the prevailing exchange rates.   

THE SMS GATEWAY
The SMS platform is designed to give your users a customer-friendly experience.   The interface will enable clients upload and save contacts, schedule messages, and has a reader bar that indicates how many SMS units he/she has at any given time.   There are also delivery notes that indicate clearly whether SMS sent has been delivered to the recipient. 

There are other features such as classifying and grouping contacts. 

PAYMENT
Make your payment to the following account for your SMS gateway setup and your SMS credits. 

Bank: Oceanic Bank PLC
Ac Name: Legacy Int Ltd
Ac No: 0431101006554

When your account has been setup, we shall give you all the manuals to direct you on how to configure your client?s SMS accounts and to transfer SMS credits to them when they have paid you for it.   

To deploy your SMS solutions immediately, contact Iken on 07064826526 or send us a mail on info@n2sms.  net.

Well, I would not go into whether the story is true or not, or whether this was justified or not.   I would rather just go into something I feel every woman should know about what to do if a victim of rape. 

Rape presents two unwanted (maybe three if we talk of the emotional aspect of it) worries.
1) Unwanted pregnancy
2) The risk of contracting STI, HIV included. 

Here are the steps to take if you or someone you know has been raped. 

STEP 1
It is important to seek medical help IMMEDIATELY, if possible, within hours of the incident.   Studies have been shown that if a Co*ktail of anti-retroviral drugs are started within the first 72 hours of an exposure as occurs in rape, and continued for a month, it will reduce the chance of getting infected with HIV by as much as 80%.   This mode of therapy is known as POST-EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS.   

The principle behind it is that when HIV enters the female ----, it first infects the cells there, and is then carried by way of a special liquid called the lymph to the blood stream where it now causes an established infection.   The aim of this therapy is to attack the virus and clear it off when it is still in the ----l cells. 

This therapy is also used by medical personnel who have been exposed by either needle punctures or blood/fluid splashes, which is an occupational hazard of their work. 

PLEASE THIS POINT IS IMPORTANT; PASS ON THE MESSAGE TO ALL YOU KNOW!

2) There are drugs that can be given to block implantation of an egg fertilized by a rapist's sperm, thus blocking pregnancy.   A good example is a drug known as Postinor.   It has to be commenced within 48 hours of exposure to be effective. 

3) Get emotional help and support.   NOTHING IS GAINED BY KEEPING QUIET ABOUT AN INCIDENT OF RAPE.   It does more harm than good. 

Besides going around sleeping with people without a condom is dangerous.   Someone who is already HIV positive can get re-infected by another strain of the virus.   These strains now re-combine to produce new strains that can be drug-resistant to the anti-retrovirals presently in use.   For these unfortunate victims, DEATH due to treatment failure is an inevitable end. 

Please pass the word! It may save the life of someone close to you.   You never can tell. 

If you are one of those still grappling with the problem of making payments online in Nigeria, I suggest you go to hxxp: e2pay. wordpress. com and get the solution to your problem.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm! I smell romance in the air!

It's not just about printing it.  What is the plan to market the printed vouchers to be able to make money from it?

Forex is risky.  But the risk is increased when people jump into the market without training and knowledge.

What is so hard for someone to take 6 months to get trained, and then use his money to aim for 5% returns monthly, aiming for higher returns as confidence and knowledge increases?
