Fax
Blast Services
Fax blast
services are mushrooming everywhere, and
that's good news for its users because competition generally
means better quality and cheaper service. As its name suggest,
fax blasting (sometimes referred to as fax broadcasting
services ) is the online version of the traditional "mass
mailing." This is done by keying in all the names of customers
in some kind of a List Manager, and the fax blast services
provider will blast, or broadcast, the fax to all intended
recipients (as stated in the prepared lists) within a couple of
hours.
This electronic faxes service is excellent,
especially for marketing purposes. Suppose a company wants to
send out press releases, newsletters, product updates, delivery
forms, special promotions, invitations, or inventory
information to certain numbers of customers, fax blast service
will enable them to complete this task in a single automated
transmission. This has many advantages in terms of cost and
time savings, including doing away of labour normally
associated with mass mailing, savings on related stationaries,
no need to invest in high quality fax machines or expensive fax
software, and better fax quality.
Added benefits of using a broadcast fax
service is that faxes can be sent at anytime of the day (even
at night) via a given business fax number, cheaper cost per
faxed document (usually cheaper than computer fax ), scheduling
of fax transmission is possible days or months in advance, and
message personalization is also possible as most services allow
the merging of a wide range of fields of data for each document
to be faxed. These benefits are great for marketing and
information sharing purposes
Basically all bulk faxing services have
functionalities such as delivery tracking of each and every fax
transmitted, confirmation emails on whether certain fax were
successfully delivered or not, a pre-determined number of
retries for busy lines, and active logs for incoming and
outgoing faxes.
Fax blast services is especially useful for
companies which faxes lots of documents, as it translates to
mean huge savings and increased sales. Companies which uses
such a service do not have to invest in a dedicated or lease
line (which are expensive). Basically all that is needed is a
computer which is hooked up to the internet, pay a small
monthly subscription fee, and only pay for the faxes which were
successfully transmitted. In a nutshell, companies which have
an international business clientele should subscribe to blast
fax services.
