• When was the last time you used one?
• Declining readership, and a dying industry • DVR/TiVo - Lets you Fast Forward the commercials • Do Not Call List - People don't want you to call • 1%-2% Yield is all you can expect • Rising Costs make this medium very expensive • Spam Software filters even relevant messages |
By adding a text message marketing 'call to action' to your traditional media you can dramatically boost your response rates, because it's a simple and direct way for people to quickly get the information they want while on the go. Even if people are interested in your product or service they will often forget to visit your website by time they are back home. But, if you tell them they can text "Info" to 71441 for more details, it's easy for them to immediately take action.
Harness the Power of Text Message Marketing
and Grow Your Business
Studies have shown that the average person is within three feet of their cell phone 24/7, even when sleeping. So if you could get your customers excited about receiving messages and offers from your business on their cell phones, can you imagine what a positive impact that would have on your business?
Examples of How Businesses can Use Mobile Marketing
Restaurant
- Place signage around your restaurant promoting a mobile coupon with something like this. Text "appys" to 71441 to get a free appetizer with your meal. When customers text in to get the coupon you have now captured their mobile number and can send them future offers. Lets say two weeks later, you're having a slow night. You decide to text a special offer to your list of subscribers that says: "Hey, tonight I'm offering two for one drinks all night. Show this text to receive this special offer." Do you think you would get a few more customers to fill up your restaurant? I guarantee you would. It is simply the most direct and effective way of marketing your business to the right customers...EVER.
Trade Show Attendee
- Trade show's can be an extremely effective way to market your company. But they can also be chaotic and rushed, and difficult to connect with potential clients. You often end a trade show, exhausted and overwhelmed with stacks of business cards and no plan to follow up. With Text marketing, you can step into the new millennium. Have people text "Win" to 71441 to enter your giveaway contest. At the end of the show, you can have a winner automatically chosen, but best of all, you have a list of every entrant that you can now text with the push of a button. But that's not all...you can run polls to see what customers are most interested in. You can even show live results at your booth. You'll leave your next trade show with more leads, and the easiest way to get back in touch you can imagine. Entering business cards info and data entry after the event will be a nightmare of the past.
Heating & AC Company
- Add into your current marketing a small message that says: Text "Heat" to 71441 to get 50% off a 12 point inspection of your furnace. You'll build a list of customers who know you and trust you to take care of their heating & AC needs. As the seasons change and you want to get the word out that people should service their furnace or AC units, send out a reminder text like this one: "It's that time of year again. It's time to service your furnace to make sure it's operating at full efficiency. Call ABC Heating & AC at 250-555-1111 to book a service now." How many more people would book a service than if you just let them remember on their own? I'm guessing a lot more!
Festivals & Concerts
- Music festivals are perfect for text message marketing. All their promotions can inculde a "Text to Win" contest where two free tickets are given away. You're bound to get a huge number of people signing up to win free tickets, which gives you a perfect demographic of interested people you can keep promoting the event to. Can you think of a more targeted audience?
