General Blaster FAQ
1.
HeyCosmo Blaster is voice sms for groups. Let's say you plan to have a group event with 10 of your friends to celebrate your friend’s birthday. You want to know which location your friends would like to meet at. You can setup a "blast" to all your friends with your options that ask for their input. Blaster then calls each one of your friends, reads your text and offers suggestions. Your friends make their selection and you monitor their replies in real-time. Now you can know who wants to do what, and make a decision nearly instantly. No more back and forth phone tag.

General Concierge FAQ

HeyCosmo Concierge is an automated application that helps you by contacting multiple vendors and providers of services to find what you need in your area. Rather than searching through multiple sources and having to call each number yourself, HeyCosmo Concierge does it for you and delivers the results.

3.
HeyCosmo Concierge uses the same types of information that you would have used that makes it less confusing and more time efficient. All of the potential calls that you would have been inundated with are taken to task by HeyCosmo Concierge
4.
The responses that you may hear can be varying according to the text the customer types for each option. For example, his or her example can be "Sure, I will call you right now." or it can be "Thank you for your response, I will call you at the most appropriate time". The customer may be contacting many businesses at the same time, and each may be vying for that customer’s business. After your response to the option in the telephone call, the customer is given a list of the businesses responding, along with additional information that may assist them in choosing which vendor(s) to call. Additional information may include a rating, or by default, the physical distance from the customer’s location to the business. To understand this better it is recommended that you try HeyCosmo Concierge the next time you need a service or vendor. That way you will see what your potential customers are experiencing.
