The Consumer cellular approach to business…offering no contract cell phone plans such as those outlined above, is terrific for everyone, but especially for the over 50 market they cater to.
The most important thing to remember is not only the plans available but the phones that are available as well. They have everything from the Motorola Bravo, a smart phone for the tech-savvy senior, to the Doro Phone Easy 410, which is a phone optimized for seniors, with big buttons, very loud speaker and the ‘911’ button prominent to make it easy to identify for seniors who have vision issues.
