Included in the latest update of COMMZGATE Portal today is a feature that allows you to select recipient groups by simply dragging them from your Contacts list, and dropping them into the “Selection Outbox”.
This method allows multiple selection as well and gives users a much improved visualization of the Contacts selection process.
This new feature is found in both the Campaign and QuickSend sections.
Also included in the update today are a host of other minor improvements such as a date range filter for API message logs and improved search capabilities.

New Feature
QuickSend is a great way to send a simple message broadcast to customers and colleagues without having to take into consideration all of the campaign-related features in a normal campaign.
We released a new feature in QuickSend where on submitting each message, you will be able to view the progress of the message submission instantaneously. The progress will appear a yellow alert box as shown by the screenshot on this page.
A nice feature here is that even if there already are existing messages in the message queue waiting to be processed, you can proceed to submit even more messages to the queue without having to wait for the original batch of messages to clear.

Pfizer has launched a SMS-based smoking cessation programme in support of its smoking cessation drug Champix /Chantix
Apparently, research has shown that half the fight to quit smoking is psychological.
Users of the drug are hence assisted with up to daily SMS encouragement reminders to keep up the good fight , not to give up and basically to keep the chin up until the end of the drug course.
To register, send QUIT to 73333 , you will be prompted to enter your drug course start date to begin the programme.
