WHAT:WHERE:WHEN:WHY:

WHO: All Members (Especially those that do not own an iPhone)

Mass Texting system is not getting through all of our members!!!

Anywhere and Everywhere! It happens in our dorms, in our classes, at

events, in the library, and even at Knights Library!

All the time!

Texts are sent through iMessage; thus, those who do not have an iPhone are at

risk of not receiving them.

• About 29% of members do not have an iPhone!!!

STATSTICS (CONTINUED)

Poll from last chapter: “Did you fail to receive at least 1 of the last 3 mass text messages?” 12 answered “YES”

43 answered “NO”

About one in five members did not receive at least one of the last few texts!!!!!

Of these that answered “YES,” 11 did not have IPHONE!

Because over 20% of our members do not own an iphone, the effectiveness of our mass text system is hurt greatly.

SOLUTION:

GROUPME!GroupMe is a beneficial smartphone app that allows users to create a group chat is synced with the notifications of their phones!

We can create a GroupMe with every single member, allowing everyone to receive the notifications sent by the secretary and other officers.

Pros: It is accessible to every smart phone platform! (100% of us are

able to get it).

It is very affordable! (FREE!)

Its notifications are synced to your phone, so it will ring as if receiving a normal text message.

It can be used to upload pictures that members can view with urgency (important documents, fliers, and even the Google Calendar).

It can be monitored by an administrator.

It is easy to download: go on your smartphone’s market app and click “DOWNLOAD”.
