The SMS business is a business i never thought is so lucrative and useful like this ! Though,i got familiar with sending SMS through phone when i started using my then "Motorola T20"phone,way back..Sending personal messages,love,prayer and inspirational messages to loved ones was the reign of the moment.Even,its only few people that knows how to use this for the said purpose.
Later,as i got acquinted with the internet,started coming across website site that offer free SMS to phones on the net but was more popular in the western world and the middle east.Some phone users switch over to using free internet SMS for their messages since they are not charged a dime.As this trend continue,some websites transform from free SMS to payment per SMS you sent through their site.Majority left the platform and switch over again to their phone.
Why are people switching back to their phone? Access to free SMS has been denied and so far they can send a message through their phones with deduction in Airtime,no need of double payment.Again,no much satisfaction is derived from sending an SMS to loved ones,just for personal use to show affection or information.This is what runs in majority of people's mind and their level of thinking which am not excluded.
Though,have heard of some companies dealing in SMS business but my thought is that,the business is not real,time wasting and cannot yield any positive income in real business life.My thoughts are absolutely wrong !
