Using a Smartphone to Make Life Easier: Southwest Concierge Launches Affordable Tech-Based Concierge Services Nationwide
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) MESA, AZ, February 2 / MARKET WIRE/ --
Now, anyone with a smartphone, PC, or Web-enabled
cell phone can access concierge and personal assistant services just like
the rich and famous do -- but at very affordable prices. With the current
economy adding stress to people's already overwhelmed lives, Southwest
Concierge, an Arizona-based company, is the first to offer concierge and
personal assistant services, nationwide, using this new technology.
With a smartphone, PC, or browser-enabled cell phone, including the new
BlackBerry Storm and iPhone 3G, clients have real-time access to their
personal concierge through the PocketConcierges.com Web site. They can make
a request from anywhere in the world with six clicks, regardless of the
request. Southwest Concierge will handle whatever clients can conceive:
find a babysitter, send lunch to a business meeting, schedule
transportation, and arrange for home improvements or everyday errands.
Clients will receive a call or e-mail from their personal concierge within
five minutes, with most requests handled in 15 minutes. Plans start at
$9.99 a month plus the cost of the requested product or service. There are
no additional fees or markups.
Southwest Concierge ensures that its preferred vendors and personal
assistants have undergone a complete background check and evaluation and
that they stand behind their products and services, so in addition to
saving clients time, they also provide them with peace of mind. Founded by
Timothy O'Connell, a corporate IT management specialist, the company has
built a reputation in Arizona and California for leveraging internally
developed technologies to provide VIP-level services since its inception
almost four years ago. This new smartphone-based service expands its reach
to clients of all ages and incomes, across the country.
"Our business focuses on saving time," says O'Connell. "With this
technology and inexpensive pricing, average people can get assistance with
everyday home and business tasks, reducing their stress and making their
lives easier."
Southwest Concierge boasts a client base of over 14,000, including a
growing list of VIPs and companies such as Chicago-based Optima, Inc. and
Catholic Healthcare West. For more information on Southwest Concierge's
