Voice Messaging (Working Title)

Kenyans love to send messages on radio and they also love to talk. However for majority of them, the call rates are out of their league in terms of what it would cost to have a long call and pass the required message. This service proposes to use a USSD menu integrated to an IVR platform for people to communicate with. Person A leaves a message and person B is alerted by SMS that he has a message. B call the number and retrieves their message and can opt to reply to A.  The service is free.
