Let’s face it - communication methods are changing as fast as technology changes (which feels like every five minutes, right?). What worked a year ago, a month ago… okay, maybe even last week - might already be outdated.
As business owners, we’ve got to be strategic. We’re not just trying to get the word out - we’re trying to cut through the noise of a world where everyone is marketing something, everywhere, all the time.
Our inboxes? Prime real estate.
Our social feeds? One big commercial break.
Our text messages? Apparently, open houses for anyone who gets a hold of our phone number.
And because of all that, phone providers, email platforms, and social media apps have tightened the reins. They’re cracking down on what messages make it through to their users - and even charging more to send messages. Translation: It’s not you, it’s the algorithm… but it’s also kinda you. 
So, as business owners, our job is to show those providers that our messages belong - that they’re valuable, wanted, and most importantly, not spammy. And your PinkSuite is here to help you do exactly that - while keeping your communication cost-effective and professional.
First, Let’s Talk About Communication CreditsYour communication credits aren’t charged by your PinkSuite - they’re charged by the communication companies themselves. Yep, MySuites pays for the same credits for our business communication that you pay for yours.
Since we know firsthand how quickly those credits can add up, we’ve rounded up some strategies to help you save while still keeping your messages powerful and professional.
1. Keep It Short and Sweet (160 Characters or Less)Think of 160 characters as your communication sweet spot. Anything over that starts using multiple communication credits.
If you can say it in one message, you’ll only use one credit - and your wallet will thank you. Keep the main message simple, then point your contacts to where they can find all the juicy details.
Example:
“Hey gorgeous! 
New product launch is live! Check your email for the scoop 
[link]”
You’ve said it all - short, friendly, and direct. No novel-length texts needed.
2. Skip the AttachmentsDid you know that sending an image counts as its own communication credit? So, if you send a 160-character text with one image, that’s two credits per person. Yikes.
Instead, include those beautiful visuals in your emails or social posts - or use your PinkSuite landing pages if you’re a Pro member.
Then use your text to direct people there instead of including everything in one message. Not only does that save you money, but it also helps with deliverability since some phone carriers get suspicious of long texts with emojis, links, and pictures. Too many messages like this will result in carriers preventing your message form going through, or they may even flag your number. If your number gets flagged by multiple carriers - the phone company will suspend your phone number for a period of time. Multiple offenses like this can result in the phone company “black-listing” your phone number for good 
3. Use Short Links (Your 160 Characters Will Thank You)PinkSuite’s URL Redirect feature is your secret weapon for saving characters in your text messages.
You can create short, clean links that look professional and help your messages stay concise.
Example:
Instead of sending:https://mypinksuite.com/yourname/events/upcoming-winter-product-launch/1761752748q7429798246q827464298
Send:yourname.com/winterlaunch
Boom — you just saved a million characters and looked like a total pro.

4. Train Your People Where to Look for InfoThis might be one of the most powerful (and free!) communication strategies: consistency.
Teach your audience where to find your updates - whether that’s:
A specific Facebook Group for event details
Your weekly Wednesday email for announcements
Or (if you’re a Pro Member) a tab inside your Pink Portal
That way, you can send a short reminder text or post (“Check this week’s Wednesday email for all the deets 
”) instead of trying to cram an entire book report with every piece of info into a single message that costs extra and risks being flagged.
5. Slide Into Those DMs (for Free!)Want to know one of the most cost-effective ways to communicate? Facebook and Instagram DMs!
When someone sends you a message on Facebook or Instagram, it comes right into your PinkSuite - and you can reply from there too.
Best part? These messages don’t cost a single communication credit. That’s right - zero, zilch, nada.
You can send as many messages, emojis, and images as your heart desires without worrying about credits. (Your emoji addiction is safe here. 
)
6. Use Social Stream for FREEAll members have a free Social Stream account that they can use for live-streaming & video conferencing. You can also use this tool to jump on a call with someone using your meeting link. You and your contact can join the meeting on audio to use the feature like a phone call instead of a video chat. Free Communication at your finger tips!
If you’re a Pro member, you also have access to the chat feature inside your Pink Portal.
This lets you communicate freely inside your private community groups - and it’s totally free.
Use it for updates, event details, encouragement, or anything else that keeps your community connected - all without spending a single credit.
In ConclusionBeing strategic with your communication isn’t just about saving money - it’s about keeping your message strong, simple, and seen.
In a world full of spam filters, paid messaging, and attention overload, the businesses that win are the ones that communicate smart - not just loud.
Your PinkSuite gives you the tools to do both. So stay creative, stay authentic, and remember: sometimes less really is more - especially when it costs fewer credits.
