Desktop Text
Desktop Text enables all O2 customers to send text messages from their PC to any mobile (National or International). It makes texting a very simple, fast and cost effective way of communicating key messages to one or several people.
You can keep your staff up-to-date with the latest developments while they're out and about or use Desktop Text to advertise or send appointment reminders so much cheaper than sending a letter or Direct Mail shot.
To keep things personal, the message looks like it came from your mobile. But just so you know, you pay for each text message at the same rate as sending a message from your mobile. The software is provided free of charge.
For more information, please contact your account manager on 1800 300 202 or O2 Customer Care on 1909.
