How do I get people to remember?

Question

Here's the situation. I'm a very sociable guy. I'm out at least once a week, usually twice, sometimes 3 or 4 times. Therefore, I also know a lot of people. I love going out in big groups, networking, introducing friends to other friends and such, so whenever I go out I wanna invite everyone I know. Now, the easiest way to do this is by cell phone. But it costs money. Just to send the initial email about whatever is I'm doing probably costs about $6 each time. This doesn't include writing back to people with questions. Not too much to spend for one event, but for 10, 15, 20 a month? Adds up. So what I do is, I send an email once a month detailing everything I'm gonna be doing for that month. Big money saver but... what happens is I get people emailing asking me what I'm doing that month, or I get people saying "you never told me what you were doing." Any suggestions on how I can get people info that they'll remember without having to spend too much money?

While computer email is a good idea, I didn't include it as a solution because my access is limited; it's a pain to get on the computer several times a week, not to mention respond to everybody via computer, consistently.

have a mobile with unlimited text. That's not the problem. The problem is each email costs money, and I don't want to switch phones at this point. Though that's a viable option in the future.

I don't do any regular events, so telling people about that wouldn't work.

Answer 1

Duh! If it costs that much to do everything via your cell phone either get a different plan, or use the e-mail on your computer!

Answer 2

It sounds to me like you are afraid of being alone. You don't need to send text messages to everybody you know detailing everything you are doing for the month. Just tell people as you see them in passing about one event. They might pass along the information, they may not. You might not have as many people show up but so what. Popularity isn't everything, and the monthly checklist Text messages make you sound desperate for attention.

Answer 3

What you need to do is get a text plan. With my text plan I can send out 300 txt a month for 5.99. Any text that I didn't use rolls over to the next month with no extra charge.

Answer 4

Since email is free it seems to be the best for your situation.
