Re:Why text message marketing?

Text messaging is gaining popularity as an advertising medium because it is relatively inexpensive and allows businesses to reach out to highly targeted consumers. Millions of people all over the world have the ability to receive text messages.

If you can get a really good copywriter to write short text (SMS) ads for you, text message advertising can be a powerful ad tool. Most consumers have handsets; it's pretty cheap to send millions of SMS; and the ad is timely. But, for a more long term growth prospect, consider hiring good local SEO people to ensure you reach your local consumers in your area. It's much more cost-effective in the long run.

Speed:
Text messages are received virtually immediately, making it the ideal solution for distributing information, whether that information is coupons for products, time-sensitive information, or anything else than can benefit a business through timely delivery.



Readability:
As 94% of all text messages are read, your marketing message will be seen by virtually all of the subscribers in your SMS program.






Qualified Recipients:
Since your subscribers have opted-in to receiving your offers and promotional messages, you know they have an active interest in your business, and your products.



Flexibility:
With text messages sent and received within minutes of starting your campaign, you can use mobile marketing for ad-hoc purposes, such as driving traffic to your store on slow nights (“Make a purchase within x hours, and receive a xx % discount!”), or clearing out overstock items before end of month. This is the new “Blue Light Special”!



Range of Use:
Mobile marketing can be used for a wide range of purposes: announcing new product, one-day specials, new store openings, special events…etc. Subscribers can be treated as an exclusive group for offers and information that only they have access to, increasing loyalty, purchases, and speed of communications.

Any text marketing campaign is as good as the push behind it.
So the question is how do you push your campaign?

Sometime text message marketing is not that worth in use as several people dont really respond to it. But, I have seen several people gaining success with this marketing.

Maximum people avoid this due to unwanted messages but, of the service or deal is very effective then it is worth choosing.

I agree! the only downside I can see with text message marketing is that you only have a limited number of characters you can send to the people.
