There
has been a significant shift in the paradigm with respect to the way products
are marketed and moved in today's economy. Not so long ago, any product due to
be launched by a big brand was subjected to heavy publicity and marketing,
typically on TVs and print media. Customers who were attracted by it, needed to
buy the products from retailers and there was practically no other way
available. But with the advancement of digital media and internet banking, the
scenario has completely changed. Along with TV advertisements and print media,
companies are also heavily investing in marketing on social and digital media
as this proves to provide equally good, if not better, return on investments to
the brands. As the online forum is available to all at free of cost, and the
fact that it is continuously on a rise, more and more companies are using the
online portal and digital medium to increase the sales of their products.
Joining the bandwagon, telecom companies also have started providing prepaid
mobile recharge online.
Online
availability of recharges has greatly improved customer experience in terms of
awareness and helped simplify the process of recharge altogether. As a prepaid
mobile customer, you don't need to manually make a walk to your nearest
recharge vendor and face the risk of unavailability of your preferred prepaid recharge pack. All you need to have
is a credit or a Debit card or internet banking enabled for your bank account
and you can recharge your prepaid mobile account, anytime, anywhere. It goes
without saying that you also need an internet connection. But with internet
becoming a household requirement just like TV did some years ago, it is not
very difficult to get started with online recharges. Another advantage that
comes along with this whole process is that the customer becomes aware of new
recharges and plans available in his circle by referring to the official
website of the service provider. It is quite possible that some of the plans
marketed by telecom companies are region specific and not available for your
region. You can always refer to their website and check out plans and offers
within few clicks.
As
more and more number of users is getting inclined towards online recharges,
many websites, along with the official ones have started providing better
incentives for doing so. This includes discount coupons to food outlets and
other shopping portals they are affiliated with. This way you can get your
prepaid mobile phone recharge done as well as avail great offers that you
wouldn't have got otherwise. This becomes possible essentially as companies
save a lot of money in distribution channel and a part of it is provided as
discounts to their customers. Not only websites, but even smartphone apps
provide you with similar functionalities. You can avail any prepaid
mobile recharge online using an internet
enabled smartphone with right apps. Not only that, you can store your money in
virtual wallet that some of this app provides and recharge as quickly as you
can imagine. You don't need to enter your account details every time you have
to make a prepaid recharge. All
these factors have made online recharges a fairly simple and convenient process
which proves to be beneficial to customers as well as service providers.
