How Phones Can Make Or Break You
10 years ago I went to a network marketing class and Robert Kiyosaki was supposed to be there he didn’t show and I felt like I wasted my time. Mainly, because I drove for 2 hours to get to this place. There was a speaker that said:” I’m worth 30 million dollars and I’ll give you the number one tip for how I made most of my money in real estate; I just answered my phone. Most people don’t answer their phone calls or return calls and the client just goes to the next person on the list.” Every since then, I been really big on picking up the phone or return calls in a timely matter. If you miss a call that can be worth ten thousand, twenty thousand ,or even a million dollars ,you never know who was on the other end of that phone. In today’s day and age not only is a cell phone a necessity but a smartphone is also a necessity for any multimedia business owner. And you basically have two types of cell phones you can get. An Android or an iPhone. Sorry no blackberries and sorry no Unbuntu phones.
The right cell phone can make or break your business. I’ve been in a field and people have come up to me if they see me with a camera and bought photos from me right then and there. Because I have NFC built into my cell phone and my camera I can just email it to them right then on the spot and and instantly get paid. I have other clients that want web design and I had to pull my cell phone out and showing some of my work right there on the spot and I locked up the contract worth thousands. There’s times I just been lost and the GPS save me hours of aimlessly driving around and save me gas and money. Because, less time I waste more money I can make.
Here are some basic thing you want to consider before you purchase any new smartphone:
How long the battery last long (Talk Time/ Stand By)
What is the storage capacity?
Reception ,this can be a combination of the type of phone you have and the network carrier you’re with. Honestly it depends where you are. You need a network that covers you, read reviews, the best network varies from city to city.
Can this phone fulfill the needs of your business on the go? I know video producers that need 50GB of HD videos on there smart phones so prospective clients can see all types of different projects they worked on.
