When I was sitting in my office, with my friend Jacob. He was running a small shop in Manhattan New York. He was telling me about the increased cost of running his business. His main concern was the increasing cost of his landline. I told him to discuss in detail:
Monthly Subscriptions
Jacob said that he was paying, monthly subscriptions that included monthly rent. Even if he didn’t use it. For instance when he was on vacation. He was worried. Jacob didn’t have an idea, how to undo it or avoid it.
That’s not all. He was also anxious about other land charges, for example, mailbox, and auto answering services, which Jacob also signed up for. There was no way that he could request for discount on it.
Internet Cost
Jacob also subscribed also about the internet cost. That was also part of the package. That was given to Jacob at fifty percent off. But later on, the price was increased gradually on a monthly basis.
There was no way out. He wants to get rid of this. But unfortunately, the telecom company didn’t agree with it. The main reason was the contract. That is included in it. There was a penalty if he cancels it before 3 months of subscription.
After listening to his long story. I suggested to Jacob of buying used mobile for sale. He was surprised. But I explained to him the better solution. He was quite happy. I gave him some of the best websites. That my customers had also very good reviews. That’s not all I also gave details of the internet and calling packages. I explained to him as follows:
Price Comparison
The packages were very reasonable and economical. As compared to the landline bills, he was receiving. The best one he opted for was the postpaid package, which gave him air time, SMS, and an internet package. He soon was convinced and he canceled his packages of landlines.
Jacob also opted for these mobile packages. When he got the used mobile phone. On the Christmas Sale.
In the coming months, when the accountant gave him the income report. He was happy to see that the cost of calling had fallen drastically down up to 60 percent. That brought up his income on a month-to-month basis. That also increased drastically.
He used this extra cash or earnings to expand his business. He opened up an online store. And later used his shop as a warehouse.
Conclusion
Jacob was clear that cell phone is better and cheaper than landline these days. Nowadays he is very happy and satisfied. He also conducts seminars in different universities and colleges about financial management.
He also calls me in these meetings. And always gives me credit at the end of his presentation. I feel humble and delighted over his success. And enlightenment. Bingo!
