Did you know there’s one extremely effective way you can connect with your clients – and if you’re not doing it, you are literally burning thousands of dollars in potential profits for your business?

I’m talking about SMS messaging, more commonly known as text messaging.

More than 2.5 BILLION people worldwide own a smartphone that’s capable of text messaging. That’s a staggering number – and it begs the question:

Why aren’t more businesses using text messaging for marketing?

Texting by the Numbers:

89% of people always have their smartphone accessible

97% of Americans text at least once a day

Texting is the #1 communication method used by people under 50 years of age

In other words, text messaging is arguably the best way to ensure that the people in your target audience read what you send them!

Advantages of SMS Marketing

1. You can track SMS messages the same way you would any other marketing campaign using web-based tools.

2. You can collect data about your text list by creating interactive content that allows them to reply to your messages quickly and easily

3. Text messaging provides nearly instantaneous results and stats for you to use so that you may optimize your campaigns quickly!

4. Text messaging can be casual and personalized with direct language and even emojis to build relationships with clients you are texting!

5. Text messages are a great way to connect with your audience when they’re most likely to be in your area or in the market for what you’re selling.

A great example of time-sensitive text messaging might be servicing texting out about the easiest way to get an appointment and schedule a consultation. Your clients might be looking for an easier way to set a time to try your products or services.

The bottom line is that if you’re not using SMS messaging to reach your audience, you’re missing out on a chance to build brand loyalty and increase your sales. Text messages are inexpensive to send and easy to write – and they can help you grow your business.
