We’re changing the way people stay in touch. You
may have heard of us. You may even already use
us. If you do, thank you. However, unfortunately
there are still lots of people who haven’t heard
about Skype or may be unsure of us. Some of
them may even be friends.
Don’t worry.
We have some nice ideas on how you can get
them excited about Skype.
Ten ways
to get people
excited about Skype.
1.
Let them know that when they call other people who also use Skype, they’ll never have to pay. Ever.
2.
Remind them Skype is also free to download from skype.com.
3.
Give them a headset so you don’t have to listen to that “But I don’t have headphones” excuse.
4.
Invite your friend to a Skype party. Ok, it may be a conference call but all their other friends would be there.
5.
Challenge them to a yodelling competition.
6. Have a bill burning night. If everyone in the world used Skype, we’d never have to pay for calls again.
7. Remind them they could pretend to live in New York with a SkypeIn number.
8. Call them on their old phone with SkypeOut and let them know the call is still cheaper than the local rate.
9. Shout loudly about how you can forward Skype calls to your cell phone or landline.
10. Mention that their old phone is soooo 20th century.
Skype is a piece of software that allows people around the world to talk
to each other for free.
Sure, we’ve heard this all before. As a company, we’re all used to that notion. But then Mister Wu, Smith and Blanc aren’t. They may know nothing about Skype. For all we know, they may think the name is some sort of sexually transmitted disease, pyramid scheme or a car made in deepest, darkest Bohemia. So once again, Skype is for the people. Skype is everything that a telecoms company is not: generous, interested and proactive. We allow the people to talk each other and the world for free. That will always be news.
skype is good for families
Skype has simple ways to talk to several people at once – so it’s like you’ve got the whole family together in your lounge, even though you might live thousands of miles apart. Families can enjoy talking for as long as you like, without worrying about the cost or the distance. Plus with features like conference calling, free video calling and group chats it’s never been easier to stay in touch with all of the family no matter how far apart you are.
skype is good for business
Skypecasts also allow Skype users to meet new people who share their interests and bring internet conversations to life, in calls with up to 00 people.
skype is good for communities
With Skype you can talk to anyone, anywhere for free. Skype has changed the way that 00 million people from all around the world communicate with people they know.
Today’s world is all about communication: Chatting, messaging, phone conferences, file transfer. Exchanging thoughts, ideas and opinions. Every day in business and private life.
