Text Message Marketing: 5 Reasons Your Small Business Could Depend On It
Did you know that less than 25% of emails are ACTUALLY read? No? how about that over 90% of all text messages are read? I think you see where I’m going with this… With the rise of text messaging it’s no wonder someone found a way to use it to advertise, but the beauty of it is that people actually WANT the deals and coupons from the places they subscribe to. Wow! what a concept…
Picture this, Bob’s Fry shack has, on the front of his menu, that if you text “Frenchy” to “55555″ you recieve a coupon for 20% off your entire meal. You, being the savvy consumer you are, signup to recieve the coupon. Now next week when Bob runs another special you are automatically alerted via Text Message. Bob’s selling more Fries than ever and his customer are stoked about all the great deals they’re getting! It’s a win-win. And to sweeten the pot it’s relatively inexpensive!
