September 7th, 2008Man walks in to a mobile phone shop
From across the pond this morning:
Not the cheese shop sketch
Man walks into a mobile phone store.
Ouch!
No, let’s do that again. This time without the faintest hint of a joke.
Man walks into a 3UK retail store on Princes Street in Edinburgh.
“I’d like to buy a prepaid mobile broadband SIM card please”.
“I’m sorry, but we don’t sell those.”
How do they stay in business? I want to know the secret to making money without sales! Just don’t expect me to blog it when I find out…
Har har it’s funny because everybody knows how easy it is to find prepaid data cards.
Er wait, hold the phone*, everyone knows you can find _what_ in Europe?
£10 per 1 GB or £25 for 7GB prepaid is the going rate btw (taxes included).
Prepaid data. Data by the pound, stick it in any device, like a £49.99 prepaid mobile broadband dongle, pay for the data only as you use it. A startling invention. Due any decade now in Canada.
File under: business models we’d like to see.
*Hold the phone – geddit?
