Let’s prove to ourselves that diligence and determination are the ultimate keys to success. Keep up the hard work and as partners lets make May our most rewarding month ever!

We Did It!

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of our agent’s signups increased by 35% during our Mother’s Day Promotion. This makes it our most successful customer signup engagement this year. Although Mother’s Day has ended, don’t forget about our May Madness and Agent Signup Recruitment Promotions that both continue throughout the month of May.  Now is the time to take your marketing and advertising efforts to the next level. So together let’s make May a promotional month to remember!

Blackberry versus Iphone

The Smart phone market is getting hotter every day! With the introduction of Iphone, there is no question that the whole cell phone market has changed forever. Blackberry is currently about to launch its new product named “Bold” to compete against Iphone’s new 3G version which will be available in June 9th.  Blackberry continues to attract business people who are traveling across the country and leads the market with its impressive 41% market share. However, the new improvements in Iphone along with other cell phone providers signal not only that the war is heating but also the Smart phone market is getting very attractive for mainstream consumers with lower prices and impressive features.

Furthermore, here you can find the cell phone penetration projections of SNL Kagan that shows the continued growth of cell phones. Currently the cell phone ownership increased to over 270 million unit that is 84% of the total US population and is expected to reach 100% in 2013. The numbers include business, consumer and double-phone owners as well.

Tel3 Advantage is dedicated to provide its customers the most convenient solution. We have a promise for our customers to make the long distance like a local calling experience by changing the way people used to talk with calling cards, dial around plans and 10-10 services to make affordable calls.

By building dedicated landing pages for cell phone users, you can target this huge growing market and offer your potential customers either smartplug solution or basically Tel3 long distance solution with all its unique features such as number recognition, auto-recharge feature and many more.

Signup Promotion Extention

Due to the overwhelming response we've received from our agents and customers we have decided to extend our Mother's Day Double the Free Minutes Signup Promotion until Friday, May16^th.  Now is the time to push your marketing and advertising efforts to the max and know that your sufficient, hard work will pay off.  Let’s work together in making sure our Double the Free Minutes Signup Promotion is a phenomenal success!

Long Tail

The theory of long tail is nothing new: as Chris pointed out, our culture and economy is increasingly shifting away from a focus on a relatively small number of "hits" (mainstream products and markets) at the head of the demand curve and toward a huge number of niches in the tail. Chris explains perfectly in his book and in his blogs how you can take advantage of this and find very productive niches. The name of the book called "The Long Tail: Why the Future of Business is  Selling Less of More"

This is especially true in telecoms and in our market. Tel3Advantage service is used by people who make calls to more than 100 different countries every day. Considering each country has multiple detailed regions, such as city and mobile rate breakdowns, we are talking about hundreds of different products that you are promoting and selling.

The increase in importance of the long tail, which is fueled by diversity of the American population along with the affordable cost to make phone calls to any other country in the world, affects any marketing effort as well. While you can mainly concentrate on top popular destinations in your marketing plan, it also brings an opportunity to leverage the new niches in the long tail. We do consistently work to make the rates better not just for the top destinations but also for the long tail where you can target also these niches and get the best return for your each dollar spend!

Here you can find the new rate decreases for the long tail. All rates mentioned here are one of the best rates in the market. You can enlarge the table by clicking on the image. For the full list of our rates, please visit our "Rates" page in Tel3Advantage website.

Mother's Day Promotion Banners

With our "May Madness Agent Contest", "Agent Recruitment Promotion" and our most recent "Mother's Day Double the Free Minutes" promotion, May has become the month which we offered the largest variety of promotions in 2008.

To support your advertising efforts during our Mother's Day promotion we have created a set of banners that are currently available in your Agent Back Office under the "Holiday Banners" section.

Promotion Newsletter

Tel3 Advantage continues to provide you more tools to convert potential visitors into real customers. We recently added the promotional newsletters option for customers on the rates page where potential visitors may sign up for free. It is a newsletter to inform the customers about the promotions and rate changes going forward. This way, we want to make sure that although the potential visitor may not be ready to sign up at that time, we want to keep the visitor engaged with Tel3 Advantage and give you more chance to convert the customer later on. Once you bring a customer and they sign up with the newsletter, we will store the promo code so once the customer signs up even days later, you will be entitled to the regular commission. With this tool, we are planning to inform the signed up customers once there is a promotion going on (such as Mother's Day promotion) and have them enjoy the opportunity. Please let us know about your opinion and share your ideas with us.

SmartPhone Banners

We have recently launched the Tel3Advantage Mobile Web Site for you to create targeted marketing campaigns directly for the cell phone users.

In an effort to provide more marketing materials for your campaigns, we created a new set of banners. I would recommend you to forward the banners to your Tel3Advantage Mobile Web Site or the landing pages tailored for Tel3Advantage Mobile.

You can review the whole set of SmartPhone banners in the Agent Back Office.
