Mission Repair has done it again. . .We’ve gone mobile!

October 29, 2010

Hello everyone, I’m just speechless right now. This is a feat in itself!

Marc (our Webmaster) just launched our BRAND NEW MOBILE WEBSITE! That’s right, for those of you that care or for those of you that surf our website from your mobile device (i.e. iPhone or iPad), our servers will automatically recognize your device and automatically display a drill-down MOBILE version of our site on your hand-held. It’s just plain awesome! Just view our mobile site and then select your services:

What does this mean? Well, first of all, viewing all of our products and categories and services like iPhone repair and Macbook repair are EASY on your mobile device. No more pinch and zoom! Our services are displayed with pictures and descriptions so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. Marc is scrambling to hammer out the bugs (as with any new website launch) and we should be 100% by this afternoon. Find any holes? Just email Marc and let him know!!

Don’t like the new mobile site look? No problem, it might take some getting used to. You can always click “Go to main site” at the bottom right to take you our normal site. I know, sometimes change is scary (trust me, I’ve been holding my breath for 24 hours now!) but I think that this is just another way that Mission Repair stands out amongst the competition. We do this for you, our customers – and for no other reason. Well, I have to admit that I think it’s pretty cool too. OK, 90% for our customers, 10% cool. . .that’s it!

Hey, if I don’t see ya in the neighborhood this weekend, have a Happy Halloween!!

Best, Ryan

Text us, we’re all about communication!

October 11, 2010

Hello everyone, this is another Mission Repair first- we’ve launched a text campaign for those of you that have a text enabled mobile phone. (Yeah, that’s our demographic!) Simply text “repair” to 72727. Go ahead, do it now, I’ll wait. . . . . . . . . .

OK- now that you’re signed up, you’ll find an immediate coupon code within a text sent to your cell phone. You can use this coupon when you checkout online or when you call in to our customer service center. Additionally, we’ll follow up with a monthly giveaway, even a brand new iPod Touch! Only those that are part of our text messaging campaign will be eligible to win these exclusive prizes from Mission Repair. Remember, you can opt out at ANY TIME by simply replying “STOP” and you’ll never receive a text from us again. But heck, we promise to keep them short and simple and to not bother you more that twice a month. We get it.

OK, there it is, another easy way to stay in touch with Mission Repair and another way to save some bucks when you shop our services.

Thanks, it’s been an unbelievably busy Monday here – it feels great to feel so wanted!

Best, Ryan

Lawrence Apple Users Group meeting was a success!

July 8, 2010

Hello everyone, it was a late night last night as we finished up our presentation at the Lawrence Apple Users Group Meeting that we asked to attend- as usual, I can take a short story and make it long, but the folks in attendance were absolutely awesome and posed a lot of good questions for Mission Repair. I entered the meeting with a rough draft of a plan, and ended up having a repair “contest” between two of my technicians (Jake and Brandon) to see which of them could fix an iPhone cracked glass the fastest. Brandon pulled out the victory.

Yup, that's me trying to keep my cool!

They lined up on a table and got to work. . .and as they were repairing, I spoke about the iPhone, iPad and Mission Repair. I felt pretty great about the meeting and had a wonderful time. It’s really nice to reach out to the public like that. I’ve personally been in the business since 1994 working on many Apple items and I know that there has to be something I can share ;-) I still LOVE Apple’s products. I saw some old familiar faces and met many new ones. . .it was a success and I was able to add 30 or so emails to my newsletter list.

Rumor has it that some of the video from last night will be uploaded for everyone’s enjoyment. I’m looking forward to that and I’ll post it if I see it. Thanks to Dr. Dave for the invite, it was a blast.

Thanks everyone, Ryan

Mission Repair featured in Google Small Business Study!

May 25, 2010

Mission Repair and Google partnered together this year to talk about small business. Google picked us here at Mission Repair to be the Small Business representative for Kansas for this most recent study on how Google helps small businesses grow.

Just click on the picture then click the link “view and download” to see our discussion. While there are many businesses in Kansas, we caught Google’s attention and landed the top spot – subsequently, we were able to participate in this awesome interview! There were 50 businesses featured throughout the United States and we here at Mission Repair are gleaming with pride as Google’s top pick in the Sunflower State!

What does this mean? Well Google told us to “be ready for the press to call”. I’m waiting by the phone as we speak and ready to talk to everyone!!

Thanks again to Google and for all of our readership. Without you, none of our success would be possible.

Best, Ryan

Our Mission Repair Free iPhone App has launched!

April 22, 2010

Drum roll please. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Ta-da! And just like magic, we have an App (a free App I might add) on the iTunes App Store! Check it out here!

It's like iPhone insurance!

The wait is over and I get to relax for a few minutes. Our BRAND NEW iPhone and iPod Touch App is done, approved, released and available to the millions of iPhone and iPod Touch owners. We have been working like madmen over here at Mission Repair with our partners, MobileMotive, to perfect and fine tune our very own Protect Me™ Protection Plans that the world has been waiting for.

Need a protection plan for your iPhone that covers a cracked glass? Look no further. Just pick a plan here and download our App. Did I mention that the App is APPROVED and on iTunes? Thanks Apple!!

Or maybe you’d like a little peace of mind with your iPod Touch. Not a problem, we have a lineup of plans available for iPod Touch as well. Check it out here!

I am SO excited for this program to get some steam behind it. Go ahead, download the App. It’s free, check it out, and leave us a comment! Try it out. There’s absolutely no obligation to buy anything- it’s just kinda fun.

Let me know what you think.

Best, Ryan
