Hi there,

Hope you can help me out here! rather confused.

I want to setup a service which allows users to txt in and subscribe for 1 day (which will consist of 3 messages). I am stuck as to how I will produce revenue but not make the service too expensive. I considered charging them premium 25p for each message (They would text in 3 times a day), but I presume they pay to send the request (say 10p) and to recieve (25p) that would add up to 95p (3 x 35p). This is not only expensive, but only subscribes them for one message at a time, not the day?

Idea 2 would be to charge them 50p premium for a days subscription. i.e. 50p total to them for the day (3 messages). My problem is, how would I keep track of subscriptions? and how would I send the messages out to them? I presume that the fist message would be paid for by them (premium)? and then I would be responsible for the sending of the remaining 2? How would this work?

Such a simple idea, yet so complicated! I cannot program so was hoping for a graphical solution?
