What is Text Message Marketing?

SMS or ‘Short Messaging Service’ is a form of mobile marketing. SMS delivers text messages to customers instantly. Common SMS campaigns include raising awareness, service alerts and reminders, fundraising efforts and sending information regarding special offers and discounts. SMS has so many benefits collectively and each business has unique reasons why. Let us share some of the benefits of text message marketing we feel all business might share:

Convenience: The text messages reach the customer instantly and can be read at their own convenience.

Cost: Text Message Marketing costs less when compared to other forms of advertising. The cost-effectiveness of text marketing makes it an attractive alternative to other forms of direct marketing.

Time: It take less time to reach millions of customers – and the texts are received within seconds. Most are read within 3 minutes.

Simplicity: Text message marketing is simple and you don’t need design skills or technical knowledge, you just have to do what you already know how to do when you text your friends and family.
