Since Mobile Phone is in everyone’s hand, what will you do with your own?
For one, producers of handsets knows if they must stay in business, they must make Mobile phones “a matter of fashion.” Evolving through technological innovations and modern lifestyle – from satellite phones, PDA, Smart phones to blackberry…they must produce hot mobile phones, so customers could return again and again to buy the latest series.
But my “old school” father wouldn’t change his handset, a 3310 Nokia. He said, “I only use it to receive calls and read my SMS messages, I don’t go into other complex devices…” Truly, he doesn’t call anyone. When I touched his handset, it was so cold. No one has called him for days. In fact, when I looked at the call log, I found out I was the last person that called him a week ago.
And it was the day we had a blackout. Power Holding PLC took the light as usual in Nigeria and we hadn’t any fuel to run the generator. So, I had to quickly run down to a viewing center near by to see the match: Nigeria Vs Argentina. My father is a football fan, but he couldn’t come with me to the viewing center, so I had to call him to update him anytime a goal is scored. He would then ask me who scored the goal and I would tell him. I also sent text messages to some of my friends that were still at work during the match, to give them updates too. My mobile phone was hot that night and I enjoyed all the fun.
Come to think of it, I’ve just rendered service to my father and friends, but there are so many football fans out there that are in dear need of such services. I could do it for cool cash. I could actually make my mobile phone real hot in my bank account. Moreover, there are football news and other football fun the fans may want to enjoy too. I can sell all these to them at the right price. What I’m saying is this, with your mobile phone device you can deliver quick hot services at a huge profit.
