"A text reminder can save the day. Use connectedIT to let your customers know that you care."
Michelle Jones is age 25, single, a young professional who is on the go. She enjoys shopping, hanging out with friends and traveling during her free time. She is dependent on her mobile phone on weather updates, news and also enjoys social media. One time she got so busy that she forgot to pay her credit card bill, missing one billing cycle. This led to penalties and a significant drop in her credit score. Now she can no longer do what she enjoys and she is living with a huge debt to pay. Unable to use her credit card in a cashless society and unable to get loans to improve the standard of her life. This paints a bad picture not only of Michelle but also for the credit card provider and can cause bad publicity and huge damage to the business.
This could have been avoided if she received a text message reminder of her due date and credit card statement.

What if Michelle woke up one day with an SMS message containing a due date reminder and her billing statement on her phone? Do you think she will be able to pay her bills on time? Do you think she will be enjoying her old life as a young professional with a lot of things ahead of her? Maybe she will go to the nearest bank to pay or use her mobile phone at that very moment to transfer the balance and pay her bills also with the use of UconnectedIT.
