15 Reasons Why Nextel’s Two-Way Messaging is Better 
Than Paging, Two-Way Paging, and Two-Way SMS Options.  

1.    GROUP MESSAGING
      
Reach all of your users with one message (no group talk = no $$$).  Imagine sending 1 message out, “Meeting tomorrow—
       be there at 8:00am” and know each user has read the message and even responded.  Internet or group distribution list on any email. 

2.    SILENT COMMUNICATION
Ability to communicate even in noisy environments and respond with canned responses.
                                                                                                                    

3.     CONFIRMATION
Nextel is the only carrier right now with confirmation.  Ensure that messages are delivered in time.
 

4.     NATIONWIDE DELIVERY
-Unlimited Nationwide, no long distance
-When out of market, this will replace your two way-radio-still in contact
-Eliminates long distance charges = less calls while traveling means less money. 

5.     DOES NOT TIE UP YOUR LINE, AND UNLIMITED USE! 

6.     COMPLIMENT THE TWO-WAY RADIO
Can be used as a “call waiting” for your two-way radio.  Example: Dave is on the radio with Ray.  Jim needs to talk to Ray, so he sends a two-way to Ray.  When Ray is done with his two-way radio call with Dave, a message will appear on his phone.  Jim did not have to sit there and continually buzz Ray over and over. 

7.     ACCOUNT ADMINISTRATOR (ADDRESS BOOK)
Nextel is the only carrier in the US that has over the air provisioning. 

8.     VOICE MAIL REPLACEMENT
 Voice mail uses minutes, uses our network, blocks your phone from radio calls, promotes “phone tag”.  Get an answer now… why wait?

 9.     PRICE COMPARED TO THE COMPETITION
        
There is really no one out there that compares to our product.  The nearest competitor might be AT&T (500 messages for $4.99- no confirmation,
         150 characters).  We are unlimited, 500 characters, with confirmation.  By the way, did I mention nationwide again.  AT&T somehow misses a few
         MAJOR cities (Atlanta).

 10.   IMPORT OUTLOOK CONTACTS (ADDRESS BOOK)
        
  500 new contacts stores on our website—accessible from your Nextel handset.  You have your own database to store info on your customers 
          and co-workers, etc.

 11.   BETTER THAN CALLER ID
          With 2-Way Messaging, I choose whom to speak, when I want to.  No more wasting time.  No more, “how are the kids and the family conversations
          on the phone”.  When I want to communicate, I choose to communicate!  It is my choice who to speak with.

 12.    BETTER COVERAGE THAN THE VOICE SIDE
           Works on the lowest signal.  As long as your phone has the blinking green light, you should be able to send and receive messages.  Example: 
           I was in DEEP CREEK LAKE 3 months ago and could not hold a cell call with my friend.  I was, though, able to wish him a happy birthday via the
           2-Way Messaging.  Choppy coverage…this is a super back up radio and cell.  Adds Redundancy to our phones.

 13.    GUARANTEED MESSAGING!
          
Messages are simply stores for 7 days when the user returns to coverage.  Plumber goes into building and loses signal.  No problem, simply 
           send him a 2-Way message and when he comes out of the building, you are once again in touch.

 14.    FORWARD IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO YOUR PHONE
           If you get really creative with 2-Way Messaging, you can even forward some important emails to your phone.  Schedule appointments on
           NEXTEL.com and have them sent it to your phone 10 minutes before the meeting.  Many, many responsibilities.  Get weather, traffic, and 
           scores sent to your phone.

 15.    INEXPENSIVE DISPATCH APPLICATION
           Dispatch job information through text format to workers in the field.  Workers can respond back when job is completed, who signed, and work
           performed.
