Britain’s small businesses are being offered the chance to communicate on the move for free with PelicanTxt, a new business to business service designed to bring SMEs closer to their clients using the latest in mobile technology.

A simple, friendly and easy to use SMS service, PelicanTxt harnesses the powerful possibilities of mobile messaging. “PelicanTxt helps small and medium sized companies in the UK to eke out a competitive advantage by placing a reliable and affordable dynamic communication solution within their reach,” said Tony Opuminji, director of PelicanTxt.

A web based SMS platform, there is no set up fee and no minimum monthly spend for businesses using PelicanTxt to communicate with clients, sales leads and staff. Helping business owners to keep in touch with colleagues out of the office, regardless of geographical location, PelicanTxt is currently offering new registrants a welcome bonus of ten free text messages.

PelicanTxt messages have a range of innovative applications, ranging from reminding staff of appointments to scheduling meetings with clients and informing customers of special offers.

According to the government’s Business Link, more and more businesses are turning to SMS messaging in an attempt to keep up with the client demand for instant response. “In a world where you can order your pizza online and have it delivered almost before the kettle has boiled, source rare and precious objects from the other side of the world and view 3D maps of the globe via the internet, consumers no longer want to waste time waiting for a business to come back to them with a response to their queries,” said Tony Opuminji.

“In order for small and medium enterprises to compete on the same level as larger concerns, SMS marketing has become a very powerful tool. Instantaneous and personalised, an SMS


business messaging service removes the geographical and time barriers which hinder successful communication.”
