OwnerFreed text-message alerts

OwnerFreed (SANMO HOME CARE SERVICE, INC., doing business as OwnerFreed) sends account alerts by text message to the owner of a business that uses OwnerFreed and to the staff the owner adds (for example a manager or a technician). The alerts are about that business's own activity: new bookings, urgent and missed calls, call-back requests and job status. There is no marketing and no texting of the business's own customers in this program.

Current status: OwnerFreed alert texts are not being sent yet. The opt-in step described below is built and tested but is not yet open on ownerfreed.com; the screenshots below show that step as it will appear. No alert text is sent to anyone before the step is live and that person has agreed on it.

How a person opts in

  1. The business owner signs in to OwnerFreed and adds the person's mobile number for alerts. Nothing is texted to that number at this point.
  2. OwnerFreed shows the owner a one-time code, and the owner gives it to the person directly (in person, or however they normally talk).
  3. The person opens ownerfreed.com/alert-confirm.html and enters the code. This only confirms that the number is theirs - it is not an agreement to receive texts.
  4. On the next step the person reads the text-message terms below and decides for themselves: the box is never ticked in advance. Saving without ticking it means "no texts". The owner cannot agree for anyone. They also choose the language of their texts (English or Korean).
  5. OwnerFreed keeps a record of the choice: the exact wording and its version, the language, the business, the date and time. Texts are sent only to a person whose latest choice is "yes"; STOP ends them at any time.

Agreeing is optional and is not a condition of using OwnerFreed or of any purchase. Alerts are also available by e-mail and on the dashboard.

The opt-in step, as the person sees it

Screenshots of the real step (English and Korean, phone size). "[Business name]" is where the real page shows the name of the business; the code shown is a test value.

The same step as text:

Confirmed: this number is yours. Text messages are your own choice - read below and decide.
