The iViP Story
Nathan Kolta: It all started with my first Blackberry. Yes, I got hooked on text messaging. I would send texts to everyone I could. Except I noticed that I could only text my friends - businesses were 'non-participants' in my texting universe. I couldn't understand why I had to wade through endless 1-800 'interactive voice response' menus just to talk to someone? It should be simple enough to just text them my order, request an appointment or ask a question. I discovered that there were no platforms available for this kind of service (unless I had the proprietor's personal mobile number). So I founded iViP Mobile to solve this problem. Now we offer text messaging to auto dealerships, medical and dental clinics, animal hospitals, hair salons, dispatchers - any small to medium-sized company with a service or sales department that wants to communicate with highly mobile contacts.
Garret Weeks: I manned incoming customer service phone lines since I got out of college in a variety of industries. From the inside of large service departments, I understand what is it like to be held responsible for keeping your customers happy. Phones ringing off the hook, dealing with multiple callbacks, documenting everything and trying to follow the rules. When Nathan told me what he was working on, I realized that as a CSR (customer service rep) I would have loved an application like iViP that could get me off the phone, and let me text message my external contacts instead! Nathan invited me on-board and let me design into the Messenger all the features and behaviors that I know you who are responsible for customer service will love. Being an insider that knows what CSRs have to deal with, I am confident that the iViP Messenger will solve the practical communication issues you, the customer service worker, face everyday.
