@waynesutton you've got a potential product. Many businesses don't know how to convert social media to sales. This however is simple

Repackage, repurpose your product for businesses.

Try testing small businesses e.g. Hotels, restaurants, schools to see if they'll pay to have customers chat, ask questions or make reservations over the internet.

However, you'd need a way to bring the cost of adding a new number down for scaling purposes. You could add a routing code to each SMS to transparently share one phone number amongst multiple businesses.

Hope you pivot instead of just shutting down



@vezycash thanks. We're back up and running since Friday and getting hundreds of SMS.

Good idea.
