If you had to get the word out and communicate instantly with your customers, would you be able to?
Could you rely on email’s poor delivery and low open rates to bring in customers on the same day you send an offer?
Are you certain your social media followers are paying attention to your time-sensitive offers, or even being shown your posts at all?
Do you have a secure and reliable method to record and track your customer’s data, spending and interests?
The biggest marketing problem most business owners face is the inability to contact your best customers quickly and on your own terms.
Building a list of your best customers is one of the most valuable assets you can own.
More people now expect a personal touch when it comes to interacting with a business.
SMS text messaging has emerged as the most reliable and cost-effective ways to communicate with your best customers on a regular basis.
Text messages have the highest deliverability and response rates across any other marketing method.
Every phone, regardless of service or data plans, can receive text messages instantly.
Why does SMS Text Marketing beat all other marketing tactics?
The latest stats prove it:
Social Media and Email are possibly the hardest ways to reliably communicate with customers.
Polls show people prefer text messages and successful businesses use SMS to achieve better results:

No Extra Apps Required
Many messaging services require people to download an app to communicate, which your customers, co-workers or clients aren’t willing or able to do.
Google even discovered that just having “download our app” on a website caused 69% of people to leave immediately. On the other hand, everyone has access to a mobile phone and knows how to text. All they have to do is give you their permission to send them a message, and you’re set!
There’s no other channel like texting that can guarantee the same engagement level, making it invaluable for your business’s communication strategy.
This makes SMS text messages a virtually guaranteed marketing channel!
