Speaker 1:
Some shows don’t need a celebrity in a writer to introduce the show, but this show does two men, eight kids co-created by two different women, 13 moat time million dollar businesses, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the thrive time. Sure.
Speaker 3:
[inaudible]
Speaker 2:
Yes, yes, yes. And E S Stephen’s normally ecstasy when doctor she is
Speaker 4:
Next to me, but today you and I are just going to have to create that ecstasy with just you and I and dr. Breck and the incredible founder of boom mobile. Jeff Holly, is it possible to recreate that kind of magic without doctors? Ebinger I know you and I can. Okay, we’ll try. Let’s get into this here. So Jeff, welcome onto the thrive time show. How are you doing this morning? I’m doing great. Thanks for having me. Hey, for the listeners out there that don’t know what moot a boom mobile is a boom mobile. What is boom mobile? So, boom. Mobile is a mobile phone service provider. We have contracts with all the major, uh, wireless providers at and T Verizon. T-Mobile, uh, it’s just the fact that you get to come to us and you get a service that you are used to having a 24 seven, but just done a little bit better, a little bit cheaper. And by the way, a little pro tip, you just want to eat that microphone. Like it’s just like, it’s like, I’d like it’s a spiritual conquest or something. Cause that thing is very sensitive, very sensitive when you’re close to it. So the boom mobile business, um, Brett, who do you get your cell phone through right now? Uh, currently at and T at T and T. Should we even say cell phone or should we say, who do you get your smartphone through? You know, it’s crazy. It’s the most Googled word is cell
Speaker 1:
Phone. Okay. Cell phone. Okay. So you’re playing this through who again at and T it is Steve. Who are you? Who’s your
Speaker 5:
Phone carrier? Uh, Verizon and T-Mobile Verizon and T why do you have two carriers? That’s got a burner. I got two phones, one for the plug. And one for the load. You haven’t heard that song come on. No once for my drug dealer and once for my chick, I’m just kidding everybody out there. If you’re, if you’re curious what Steve does for a living, he does not deal drugs. He is in fact, a, uh, an actual mortgage banker. And we do not condone drug use on this show nor do we know what that song is. Some sometimes I go to areas of the country where Verizon service is not good or where T-Mobile is not good. And then I, I just always have a backup. You got a backup phone. What do you pay per month for your phone bill Steve? Well, now that my son is in the Navy in Japan, I pay about 800 bucks a month because every day he activates a travel pass for $10, you pay a hundred bucks a month. Ish. What do you pay Breck per month? Um, I think it’s about 150 per for your phone. Yeah. I mean, we’ve got, you know, it’s not just my phone, but the family. And so my wife and my daughter
Speaker 1:
And I’m with T mobile, but I have no idea what I pay. It’s all automated. So I think it’s about one 50. No idea I have no. So what I’m going to do is on today’s show Steve, we’ve got Jeff Hall here for about 20 minutes. And what we’re going to do is we’re going to ask the rude questions that people wouldn’t dare ask. Oh, you know what I mean? Cause a lot of times you have people on a show. I see it a lot, but ever when Tom cruise hopped on the Oprah show, it was literally perched, literally the couch prancing around talking about how excited he was to get married or something. Yeah. We’re not going to do that, do that. No. You know how, like sometimes you have people hop on the desk, people get on the Oprah show to do an, almost like an apologetics tour where they get to apologize for ruining their life or doing something stupid. This is not that show. This is the show where you get a great guy like Jeff on the show and you ask them these rude questions that nobody would dare ask somebody. And so we’re going to start off with less rude and get progressively more rude. Okay. Sounds great. So Jeff, how long has a boom mobile been in business? So boom
boom! Mobile founder:
Business for four years. Uh, parent company 23.
Speaker 1:
Okay. So boom mobile has. And is it how you, is it, boom. Is it cap? Is it the law? Is it you capitalize the BN boom or lowercase lowercase. Y just to be different. Okay. Trademark, where did you start this company? Uh, Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Okay. Bartlesville, Oklahoma, where I started life really? That’s where Paul Hood lived. So you have so, so boom mobile was starting and how many years ago? Four. Okay. And, um, how did you start the company? How did you go about building this business?
boom! Mobile founder:
So that would have to start from the beginning of the 23 years. It’s just always been in communications. So we’ve always offered a product to a consumer that they could pick up at a lower cost price than paying any of the say fortune 100 companies.
Speaker 1:
So you, um, how did you get the money needed to start the company?
boom! Mobile founder:
Right. Great question. So early on was Hocking everything that I had in order to get a bank loan, to trust me well enough to go off and start our business 23 years ago. Really? Yes.
Speaker 1:
And what, and did you ever share what the, the parent company’s name is and why did you decide to change the name?
boom! Mobile founder:
So the parent company is an enhanced communications group. It goes by ECG, uh, and the change of the name is just the branding, uh, from the mobile phone service to, it was a, it was a change, it was a wave of change for us. Um, so ECG was something that was a legacy, uh, business. And then boom, mobile was something that was going forward.
Speaker 1:
So you funded it by just bootstrap and I mean, every dollar you had, absolutely no bank loans, uh, in the very beginning. Yes. Um, $1,000. What kind of things did you have to go without, to fund the company? What kind of stuff are you eating ramen noodles or are you not eating at all? Did you have to sell an organ? What did you do?
boom! Mobile founder:
So my wife and I, we joke about this often. It was my first year in business. We made $11,000. Whoa. So 7,000 of that was in November and December of that year. Uh, so we spent a lot of time, uh, eating ramen noodles. We spent a lot of time, macaroni and cheese, uh, and we, our, our, I guess our gift to each other was when we finally paid down a credit card payment and enough of the minimum payments that we had enough to actually go out and get a meal that we could split.
Speaker 1:
So you guys earned $11,000 the entire first year. Correct. And I want everybody out there listening who can relate to this story to know this is how it always starts. So let’s just make sure we’re getting some context here. Um, we all know the story of FedEx, but a lot of people don’t know that FedEx did not, did not make a profit for over a decade. We all know the name ESPN, but very few people know that that ESPN did not make a profit for over 10 years. We all know Amazon, but very few people know that Amazon did not post a profit for 10 years. We all know of Tesla. We all maybe don’t know that they did not make a profit for over 10 years. Somebody should write that down because we were competing with the ghosts of magazine covers that aren’t real, everybody out there who owns a business is trying to build a profitable company in a matter of weeks or days or months.
Speaker 1:
When in fact that’s not possible. Brett, how long did it take you to achieve a level of financial success that you thought was at least respectable and or decent for having been a chiropractor who went to school for seven years to do what you do? How long did it take you before you thought, okay, I’m finally earning a decent amount of money. Pretty much a solid 12 years. 12 years. Yeah. Geez. It could have been shorter, but I was, I was a slow to learn so slow to implement things that I had learned even. So Jeff, how long did it take you to build boom to a level where you thought, okay, this, this company’s actually going to last and is actually going to be here for the foreseeable future.
boom! Mobile founder:
So ours are turned around pretty quick are in our second year, we started doing fairly well until yeah, until we ended up with a, uh, a roadblock and a hiccup that happened and it kind of reset everything for us our third year in. And then from that, it took us another year to recover. What kind of roadblocks did you run into? So when we first launched the business, we launched it as, uh, agents. Uh, so in other words, it’d be like, if you think of an insurance agent has multiple providers, they could go out and sell to a consumer and they’re going to get paid a commission off of that. That’s the way we started the business originally, uh, the company that we had built their business for, we, we had gotten to the point where we were about $250,000 a month in commission revenue from one particular company. Uh, they just cut us off completely one day. Notice, no notice, uh, told us to go ahead and take them to court. Uh, they’re gonna use our money to, to battle us and, uh, good luck. And so through attorney advice, being young, being dumb, uh, we just let them ride with it. We were told that if we went after him, they were just going to file for bankruptcy and we throw in good money after bad money and, uh, didn’t chase it.
Speaker 1:
So you’ve, you’ve had your share of battles for sure. So now you’re, you’re, you’ve been in business for 20 plus years, four years as boom mobile. How do you make any money? And now the rude question start. I mean, how do you make money if, if Breck decides to switch to you, how do you make money?
boom! Mobile founder:
Okay. So there’s a couple of different reasons. This is a common question we get often. Uh, so w the main reason why we, and how we make money and how we can do it for a consumer is the, is just one person. And so when you’re going to at, and T you’re going as one person, when I go to at T and T, I go carrying 40,000, 60,000, 80,000 people. And so they’re going to give me a better price. And they’re going to give you as an individual. Number one, answer. Number two, answer to that is, is the fact that they have a stock market price, and they have to adhere to what drives their stock. They can’t drive down. They have budgets, they have their, every, every, every large company is too fat within themselves. And so they have to do something to drive that stock price. So, so
Speaker 1:
Paul Hood, the CPA, uh, has bonafide you and has told me you’re not crazy, but good endorsement, but there’s people out there that have gotta be thinking it’s crazy. And Jason bees is going to come on here and just assault you with rough questions. Okay. And Beasley, who are you? Who’s your phone carrier? Who do you have? Timo? We got team. Well, I got T-Mobile. You got T-Mobile. What do you spend per month on your phone? Bill. Jason, let’s see here. One 60. Okay. So one 60. So let’s go with it here. Um, Steve, you’re sitting down right now with Jeff. This is a one on one. It’s a sales pitch. Okay. He’s cornered you. Okay. And for whatever reason, he’s, he’s meeting with you seriously, and he’s meeting with you and you’re with at and T and T-Mobile right. Verizon and T-Mobile Verizon team. Let’s say I wanted to move my team oval line over to you. I’ve got
Speaker 5:
An iPhone 10 kind of do that. Absolutely. Do I need the, uh, the mini Sam or the small Sam or the large semi I noticed on your website, you could like pick which SIM you want. Right. And so you, you would have the nano SIM, the nano SIM. Okay. That’s what it’d be called. So if I switched that over, I noticed on your, like, on your plans, because I actually do use this as a secondary phone. So, um, you could probably do, I mean, you have like a bunch of different plans
Speaker 4:
We do. So we try to make it very easy for the consumer to pick something that fits their needs the most. Okay. So the misconception for all consumers is, is none of you actually know what you use, right? You all think that, you know what you use? Well, we, I I’ll say this on behalf of a team. We’ll call it team a beat us. I have no idea what I use. Great. Yeah, I’ll go, I’ll go there. I’ll say I, in fact, I give you one mega point. So if, I guess what I worry about, and I’m just trying to understand this is if Steve were to switch over from T-Mobile, let’s just say he’s paying 150 a month per line for T-Mobile Kenny actually save money with you. How much money can he say? Oh, absolutely. So it all depends on what he’s using.
Speaker 4:
So we would analyze, he would send his bill to us. We’d analyze it and say, this is the plan that fits best for you. How do you feel about it? And this is your cost. How much money can you save as a percentage on average? Oh, do you know how much average you save people? Well, and that’s what I, so, yes. I mean, you’re going to save at least say 500 bucks a year. Okay. And if he, if he reduces his costs by 500, how much do you make Jeff? I, so I’ll range anywhere from 20 to 40%. So you’re going to make 20 to 40% of his savings. How does that work? No, of his, of the total bill. So if his bill, let’s say his bill,
Speaker 5:
A thousand dollars a month, he might make $300.
Speaker 4:
So if you reduced his bill from 150 a month, realistically, to how much could he reduce it to do you think? Well, if it’s just me, if it’s just one line and he’s just using it as a backup line, I mean, I can take that bill down to $25.
Speaker 5:
What, based on the usage, because on your site, you have so many different plans. Like if you only wanted data, if you didn’t want it to use it as a phone, if you only wanted a certain number of megabytes, because I wouldn’t turn it on on certain days. Yeah. I want to make sure I get, I’ll be like $150 a month, but he would also only make, you know, five bucks a month for my,
Speaker 4:
But I mean, realistically, if you’re sitting down with Steven and he’s paying 150 a month, you’re saying you could reduce it to how much per month again, if we’re talking to just the one line. Yeah. It’s 25 bucks. Okay. But what happens if like the usage changes? So it depends on what his usage profile looks like. If it’s talking texts, that doesn’t matter. The only thing that really drives anything for any of the companies is the data. And so it depends on how much he’s going to continue to use. He uses on his teenager gets ahold of his phone and starts just doing crazy stuff with data. Then what happens? It’ll cut it off at whatever limit we set it out. Okay. So then it just stops working, correct. Okay. I watch a lot of online videos, car stuff, but if he, if he wanted to keep the same package he has and switch it, I would have to know what that package is to give you the cost for it. Let’s just say, Hey, you’d have to see my package.
Speaker 7:
[inaudible]
Speaker 4:
If you want, if you want to get, let’s just say Steve, at $150 a month bill, and he wants to keep the exact same services. So unlimited text and unlimited data. How much would it be per month? How much could he say per month? On average. So on both lines, if we did unlimited talk, text and data, uh, I mean, he’s gonna save probably 25 to $30 a month. Okay. So now he says 25 to 30 a month. That’s 360 bucks a year. He saves, but now he’s paying like 120 bucks a month, right? So he’s paying 120 bucks a month and there’s 12 months in a year. So his total phone bill is 1440. Correct. And you’re going to make, what percentage of that? Approximately? He said 20 to 40, let’s just say conservatively 30%. So you’re going to make 432 bucks a year by helping them save money.
Speaker 4:
Correct. And have you done this with thousands of customers? Absolutely. And the service doesn’t change it. All right. I mean, cause he’s got a, I looked at their coverage T-Mobile and Verizon, but I mean, he’s, he’s going to have the consistent same service that he’s used to determines the blue, the pink and the cause. As far as the coverage plans go, there’s this we’re bound by contract, not to use red and pink, the logos there’s guns or names. There’s gotta be, there’s gotta be there. There’s just gotta be there’s somebody out there. And I, and somebody out there, they think like me and they’re going there’s God, this just sounds too good, which was crazy to me, clay. So what’s crazy to me is it sounds like adding the middleman actually saves you money rather than costing more money by putting a middleman in the middle. Can I call you at 8:00 PM on Sunday and be like, dude, my phone’s not working, which is, I do have a person that I’ve hired for that.
Speaker 7:
[inaudible]
Speaker 4:
So you can say people legitimately a lot of money. Let’s just put it this way. For 23 years, I’ve made money by saving people pennies. So if, if my phone quits working, like Steve just pointed out, okay, I can’t make my phone where I can’t figure it out. Oh, I can’t it. Where do I go? Now we have 24 by seven customer service and a 24 hour hotline. So we can call somebody for help. Absolutely. And if you own a business and you have like multiple lines, you could save us even more. Absolutely. I just, the problem I have the problem, I’m having a hard time resolving this issue is it seems like a good deal. And whenever I have a good deal,
Speaker 1:
A good deal, it sounds good. I usually will get out of box fan, do this for hours before pulling the trigger because I already have a box fan heard that entire that’s and that’s G cut it off before, because normally when a deal sounds hot, you think it’s a good move. So you make the move and it costs you a lot later. I’ve done that before. We’ve all. We’ve all. We’ve all done that before it looked good. Steve asked Jeff, the there’s gotta be listeners out there who are going. This is, sounds like a bunch of crap. I don’t believe this. There’s gotta be Steve. Where’s the kid, which is why on our site. We offer 30 days for free. Come try us out. See that the service doesn’t change. See that you get what you get and you’ll be happy with it. Do you have references real, real customers?
Speaker 1:
Absolutely. So if somebody says, if somebody says, I want to get, I want to, I want to get references. You got Google reviews. What’s the website. boom.us. boom.us. Yeah, you gotta like that on the cuff. I love it. I just, the thing is my job on this show is to make sure that none of our listeners get pitched crap. Absolutely. Period. And so we’ve had recently, we’ve had the founder of square reach out to us to be on the show. I use square. That’s great. Um, recently we’ve had the founder of Netflix reach out to me on the show. We’ve all used Netflix. They’re good stuff, but we’ve all listened to a podcast before where they had a guest on. I’m sure you’ve seen this. Jason where you’re like that product is crap. So I’m going to have Jason steal. Steve’s Mike for a second.
Speaker 1:
And Jason, you can ask Jeff any questions that you would like to ask him and just try to poke holes through his argument because yes, yes. And yes, he’s been verified by Paul Hood, but maybe it’s an Illuminati conspiracy, maybe Paul Hood, the CPA has an Illuminati. Conspiracy. Are you guys related? You and Paul hit. Okay, Jason, what one question would have for Jeff? So, uh, and we actually kind of talked about this before in the past, but let’s say I decide to switch now, am I only doing service or do you guys also offer devices? Cause like one of the big things that drew me to T-Mobile I’ve been there for probably 10 years. I was like, I got my first phone there and they always say, Mr. Beasley, thank you so much for being such a long time customer. Here we go. Even though now this is good.
Speaker 1:
Really appreciate it. I know that if this is good, this is good. But one of the things that drew me over to them was of course, you know, I was a broke high school kid who needed a phone. Here we go. They’re like, Hey, we’re going to give you this device. You pay monthly installments onsite. And then you’re also going to pay for the service. That’s right. And they offered me unlimited texts and everything. I stream a podcast and music. I stream dozens of podcasts, music daily. So once I hit that cap on the unlimited, I get a notification saying, Hey, you’ve actually reached your data limit. So we’re going to slow it down. We couldn’t do anything after that, but you know, call and text. So I reached out to him, I’m like, Hey, it’s an unlimited and you cut me off at something like 850 megabytes. What am I paying for? And they’re walking through all this jargon. And when I left, I had no idea what they had said. So when it comes to the actual plan itself, like when you guys say unlimited, what does unlimited really like dictate absolutely
boom! Mobile founder:
Question because every major provider has been fined because of their use of unlimited. Um, and so they view unlimited as a, yes, you have high speed data and then you have throttled what they call throttled data. And so as soon as you get throttled there, it’s still unlimited. You can only pull email or maybe get a text message, but you’re not going to surf the web. So to them it was still unlimited. And so they, they sell that as an unlimited package. We, we try to stay away from that. Um, just from the fact that I want to be, I only have one unlimited package. Okay. I don’t, I don’t get into, uh, and, and I will tell you at 30 gigs, it does have the potential to get throttled. It just depends on what area of the city that you’re in. It depends on what city you’re in.
boom! Mobile founder:
And it depends on the network congestion on whether the provider actually chooses to throttle you or not. Okay. And so, uh, and again, a great question. Most people don’t understand the unlimited differences, uh, at and T has a package out right now, uh, on their retail site for, I don’t know, 35 or $40. And it starts out throttled, but it’s says unlimited data. And so it just, it, I mean, it sinks you. I mean, it brings a little hook in and they get you on the device. So they no longer do to your contracts, uh, for service, they do it on the device because they know that they can get you on the device and they’re going to get you on the service.
Speaker 1:
I just, I guess I just hope the whole problem I have is it feel, it feel, this feels to me, my wife and I, one time went to Vegas and they said to me that the guys, they said, here’s the deal. If you take a timeshare tour for now, rather than a story for an hour, you get unlimited, you get ticket, show tickets, you can go see two or three shows tonight. It’s unlimited buffet. And I said, okay, sure. So I went on the six hour, one hour tour where Guido and every high pressure sales person conspired to try to get me to buy something. And then they gave me tickets to an off, off the strip or streets off the strip bad show with a terrible buffet. It, it just feels too good. Right? I could eat all you want. As long as you want.
Speaker 1:
Seminary feels too good. Jason, what are the rude questions do you have for Jeff? Because you gotta ask, there’s gotta be a listener out there who wants to know these things and you, you could, you can say mean things, go for it. I don’t know if I necessarily have me things. It’s just things that I’ve never understood. So another thing like, um, I recently, I used to have a client in Australia and so I have a package that says, Hey, you know, you can call wherever you want. I call him for the very first call. The next day I get a charge and a call from T-Mobile saying, Hey, you always $250. What for that one call? It was our initial meeting. Jeez. His free meeting cost me 250 bucks. So I call them like, guys, I typically try to swear at industry people who, you know, run what, the services that I am a consumer of, but what the F is going on.
Speaker 1:
You immediately, didn’t my account without asking me, then you warned me not to do it again. I didn’t know that this was something that I couldn’t do. It’s like the Dave Chappelle thing. Oh, I’m sorry, officer. I didn’t know. I couldn’t do that well in this case, I honestly didn’t know. So they’re like, well, if you looked through your contract, which nobody does, right? They said, okay, well, if you’re calling up to a certain distance or certain countries and apply, you look through the eight point font, 12 page contracts. Exactly. Nowhere does it say, Hey, if you call this specific country, you call after 7:00 PM. You’re going to catch Jeff. Now you’re going to catch him. Maybe. Yeah. So, so essentially what they said was there are certain places that you can call to where you will only incur like some sort of roaming fee or whatever, but they never specifically said, Hey, if you call from the U S to Australia, you’re going to get charged X amount plus. So when it comes to like the services you guys offer, how far does that go? Is that based off of the carriers that you are providing people? Sure.
boom! Mobile founder:
So all three carriers act a little differently, but none of them give you international coverage, unless you specifically add it to your account before you do it. Gotcha. None of them share that with you, just because it’s a thought process that you should, they, they act like you should know that like, Hey, yes, it’s unlimited call and yes, you could do all of this, but don’t call there. Um, so we make sure that all of our customers are aware, Hey, this is a U S service. Uh, there is no international coverage, unless you add international coverage. Now ATNT likes to play with the fact that you can call H uh, Mexico and Canada, a part of their package. So we have that as part of our package, we make it clear that it’s a part of our package that you can, that Canada and Mexico is part of your calling districts, North American packages.
boom! Mobile founder:
Yeah. Correct. Um, but I will tell you that all now T-Mobile, should’ve have an at and T would have. Yeah, but T-Mobile is a little bit more in a, more of an emotional carrier. Um, but what I will tell you is that if you were to make that call, then you call up to T-Mobile and say, Hey, can I add an international package? They’ll go, actually go back and backdate. It just charge you for the international package. And you wouldn’t have paid the $250, but they will not, they will not offer you that over the phone though.
Speaker 1:
Yeah. I paid the bill and then the lady said, Oh, so you can actually, so what we can do is now that this is paid, we can add the international. And then it’s only going to be like eight or 10 or whatever for the call. It didn’t matter. Like the length of it. It was just, it was basically the price to call out. So correct. Just the access, right? Yeah. Okay. I have a final, final couple of thoughts here before we wrap up today’s show, um, I, a full disclosure am not using boom, mobile, Paul Hood, the CPA who joins us on the show about once every couple of weeks, he says, I should check them out. So in the coming weeks, uh, my wife shall be meeting with Jeff to go over various phone packages. And we shall see if we get, because if we get screwed, we shall talk about it. If we save money, we shall talk about it. But I would say that if you’re out there today and you want to see for yourself, if boom, mobile can save you money, what’s the website. What’s the web address. How do we learn more?
boom! Mobile founder:
Yeah, sure. Just go to www dot boom dot S I feel free to call us. There’s a chat live button on there as well. Um, and again, how difficult is it to try something for free? We have an opportunity on the website for you to try us out, to show you that we stand behind what we say we can do
Speaker 1:
So we can compare and save by going to www dot boom dot U S. That is correct. And if somebody, because a phone is an important thing, we want our phone to be turned off. Don’t screw with it. If somebody wants references or reads, who wants to read Google reviews, you have those readily available. Absolutely. So I’m going to go Google right now. I’m going to Google search right now. Boom. Um, U S mobile. I’m doing that right now. Boom, U S mobile. See right now. Okay. I see some reviews. I see it. Okay. Um, Currington, I’m going to let you wrap up. Today’s show by, by, uh, F fire, your final shot across the bow, darker breakfast as well.
Speaker 4:
You got the 30 day free trial. Um, there’s not a time, like six months later that, you know, the price goes up.
boom! Mobile founder:
No. So the great thing about our services we’re month to month, uh, we have to earn your business every month. Um, and so if you decide that one month that you’re not liking us, and then you see something else you want to go try out, feel free.
Speaker 4:
And then, uh, going back to like, uh, a previous provider, like, how did, how would that happen if somebody decided they, they didn’t. I mean, do they lose their opportunity with, with at and T or with Verizon, as far as, uh, now they just have to shop the market.
boom! Mobile founder:
Yeah. So it’s, it’s really easy coming to, and going from a, as long as you have the right information, which is your account number and your pin number, you can leave and go from any provider very easily.
Speaker 4:
So my, my last question is just about the, the service providers, the, the three that you’re representing. Why do they want to do business with you rather than me individually?
boom! Mobile founder:
Oh, great question. It’s just, I bring more customers to the table than you do as an individual.
Speaker 1:
Ha. So you’re saying that you have more buying power because you’re going to bring maybe 10,000 customers. Absolutely. Okay. Steve, you’ve got to have a tough question. You’re you’re a skeptic. You’re a, I’m an entrepreneur. I’m a skeptic. There’s gotta be one more question. I would just say the biggest pain in the arse. You know what? Yeah. Is the switching over? Because any time I have to do it, it’s like a, I like, I’ve been very close to murdering, but murdering is illegal in Oklahoma and you religious one state laws and you did not do it. You looked at the laws and you knew that. What? I mean, you knew you couldn’t do that. A lot of people aren’t changing because they don’t want to go through the hassle of it. It’s the same reason why you don’t change CPA. So how big of a house? So how big of a hassle Hoff is, I guess is the question, right? Well, it’s so asshole for
Speaker 5:
You because you don’t even care about your phone and Vanessa, but I’m just saying for me, I’m the person that has to do that in my family to switch everybody over. So how do you guys streamline that process? Does it, is it going to take nine hours? Can I do it for my home? Do I have to physically be there? Do you send me the
Speaker 4:
That’s right? How difficult is it to switch? We demand answers, right? We’re protestors. He just came off the railroad soon. I’ve been to Canada all day, protest the railroad to I’m an idiot. I’m a socialist back to you, Jeff.
boom! Mobile founder:
Thank you. Hey, so anyways, the process of switching is fairly, it’s fairly easy. Uh, you can either come into the office. We can take care of it all. And it’s done within 15, 20 minutes, or we can send you out everything that you need. We can, uh, and we send it out in a beautiful package with a beautiful letter that tells you it’s already all set up ready for delayed activation. You go onto the website, activate dot boom, dot us. You type in the information that’s in your package and the card’s activated and you put it in your phone and you’re good to go.
Speaker 5:
What about switching over like data from one phone to another? So you’re talking about moving contacts and stuff to that nature, contacts, pictures, that kind of thing.
boom! Mobile founder:
So if you’re an iPhone user, you’re obviously going to use your iCloud. So you back up your iCloud,
Speaker 5:
You hate iCloud because you don’t want to pay Apple, their stupid little sons of, you know what, Oh, you got it. You’ve already used all your megabytes. I back up to a laptop. So do you just plug it in and back it up? Absolutely. Let’s switch it. Cause that’s the biggest pain is you go into the VR, sorry, Verizon. But I go into the Verizon store and they’re like, Oh yeah, we can just switch it. And they hooked some cord up to this. And then a quarter of that, they’re like, it’s really not working. You must have a lot of contacts. I’m like, well, yeah, I do have a lot of happened to me every time I’ve ever had to switch phones. Yeah. Every time it’s like, you’re standing there for three hours. Meanwhile, the guys at T-Mobile were taken recently, but I had to leave it there for like six hours or something. Yeah. So that’s our
boom! Mobile founder:
Common, that’s probably our most common drawback is everybody else’s experience with the big guys and how much pain that they cause I think they do it on purpose in order for them not to want to switch again. And so, I mean,
Speaker 5:
Does it already go through that pain? So they’re like, I tell them you have an unresolved.
Speaker 4:
I still do. Yeah. So my mine’s on the device. So, uh, I’ve got an iPhone 10. My wife has an 11. I know you gotta take care of the lady. Yeah. But at, and T still owns it for another five years. So do I get to bring in that, you know, I’m paying a monthly for, you know, it’s like a car payment. Um, do I get to bring that phone with me? Do I, do I have to switch devices? How does that work? Yeah. So typically what we tell the customer on that situation,
boom! Mobile founder:
They have to, uh, pay off that device if, as with anybody other than at and T if it’s with at and T I can actually bring that device over and bring that payment over and continue to allow you to still make that pay.
Speaker 4:
But I’d have to still use an at and T package within your services. That is CR I couldn’t switch. Or you could,
boom! Mobile founder:
Because again, the beauty of our services is that you can have, uh, each of your family members on a different service providers there. Cause now you have two people you got to deal with. You got know at T mobile and Verizon,
Speaker 5:
Because I switched to Verizon a long time ago and I want to switch back to at and T for my main line, I thought about doing that. But then my wife who doesn’t travel with her phone and I like Verizon. I’m like, why? Like what, what for what really explained to me the benefits, my friends would be Sally, but you know, it’s like, it’s a one sided argument she’s not here. So, all right. Well, there you go.
boom! Mobile founder:
Steve is going to have, Steve is going to have three providers. He’s gonna have Verizon, he’s going to have at and T and T mobile and one provider booth.
Speaker 5:
Because if you’ve ever been like anywhere where your phone doesn’t freaking work, like for example, right here in the box, in the rocks or at my house, the phones don’t work like my, my I, when sprint, when I had sprint, I used to say my house was sprint proof because you could walk in the door drop call done. And it was just like, let me do this. Let me talk to black hole of cell reception. I want to give the listeners out there. Um, um, tips for winning a debate with their wife with tip number one, make sure she’s not present when presenting the arguments and a tip. Here’s one of our final tips. We have 10 tips. We don’t have time for all the tips, right? If time for just a few of the tips, let me just kind of skip to another one of the highlight tips here. And probably my best tip is tip number eight, always keep bags of your own poop collected throughout your stay and just have it ready.
Speaker 5:
I do have one question. Is there like, um, cause I’ve asked all the big providers this before, like I want my phone to work like always and I’ll pay more. So don’t they have like a super premium plan where you throttle Jason and clay and dr. Breakfast. You don’t talk to me and I get priority. Cause I know those executives at T and T and Verizon habit. I guarantee you, their phone works every single anywhere. All. Yes. So is there like a, a super like awesome plan where you can pay triple what everyone else pays, but you like comment from Trump tastic plan. I’m not even worried about dropping a call. I’m just saying like, I don’t like I’m a super heavy user on the phone. You want to be spelunking deep inside a cave and be able to take a call from the president. That’s what you want. Yeah. Cause he calls me when I’m in caves.
boom! Mobile founder:
So the answer, the short answer to that is no. Oh, there’s not now. I will tell you, but I will tell you you’re probably absolutely correct about the at and T and Verizon. Zach’s having a plan. I myself can have a plan on my service that I could just use all the data that I freaking want at any speed that I want and not have to worry about whatever bill comes across. Okay. But that’s not something I would offer to a consumer.
Speaker 5:
Well, I’m not a consumer. Jeff, I’m your lender.
Speaker 1:
Well, I’ll tell you what the talk off. I’ll tell you if you’re out there today and you’re considering boom.us. That’s www.boom.us. I a hundred percent don’t endorse it. And I also, don’t not endorse it. I’m on the fence. I’m just saying to you, check it out. It’s been verified at bonafide by Paul Hood. He says great company. You know, Paul so far has never recommended to me anything. That’s not good, but I committed me. But it is my, it is my duty as the host of this show to believe that everybody all the time, including myself as a scammer, which is why I cite everything I say that way we can always verify. So check them out. Do your own research. That’s boom dot U S. Jeff. Thank you for being on the show and for really allowing us to interrogate you. It’s almost like a trial. It was great. Cannot wait to do this on the weekly real government trial. This would have taken like 18 hours call our 43rd witness. Okay, great. Now we’re going to warn of order point of order and we’d like to end each and every show with a boom. Uh, so here we go. Three, two, one, boom,
Speaker 8:
Boom, boom.
