Explosive Growth is at hand.....
Just wanted to share some street intelligence with everyone. Based on reliable field sources - I when I say "reliable" I mean with a very conservative slant - the March month for Nextel new adds should be a booming success story.
I think we are all going to be surprised by the layers and layers of expansion that's going on. Evidence of Nextel's seriousness in making this expansion stick can be found all across the country with their package pricing discounts that are not just one month wonders.
What's so interesting about the Nextel story is that its multidimensional - that's where the layers come in. PCS competitors are simply selling a one-dimensional service - two-way chat lines, linear text and paging stuff - and with the exception of Nokia's offerings, doing it in packages that are already "commodity" in price, nature, etc.
What Nextel has that others can't offer is not just the Direct Connect feature, but with it an ability to cross-link, cross contact companies. Their Business Networks strategy is just the tip of an expanding "Digital Communication Networking" platform that will make their brand of digital mobile communications really become a requirement for many more small and medium sized businesses.
I'm not ruling large businesses out of the pie...its just that when it comes to major upgrades or switches in cellular or wireless contracts, they tend to have already have something on a longer term contract. As these contracts mature I expect Nextel to be there winning a lot of additional business.
My company has six i600 phones. We're right at the ground floor of building a service network using Nextel's technology and I'm very happy with the service. What I'm doing can be applied over and over to many more industries. I know for a fact others are already on this trend. It's called levereging your opportunities. Nextel opens more opportunities to respond with a better way of communicating which leads to better service, stronger support etc.
Good luck! $32, I'm sorry but this time you're history.... |
