What is SMS?

In the world of marketing, SMS is a quick channel. Here, you have the opportunity to reach a large group of recipients in no time with the aim of selling something. Your SMS messages can also contain brief information before a hockey game, an event, or a visit to your ski resort. Additionally, you can send out customer surveys via SMS. Yes, the possibilities are many!

SMS is similar to email. You can communicate directly with contacts without any "middlemen", you can include links, and both channels are based on recipients' consent. The difference is that SMS does not require any design or long text blocks. However, SMS demands well-thought-out texts where you quickly get to the point with few characters, and that you target your SMS messages to selected audiences.

In summary, SMS is an unbeatable channel for sales, information, and customer care. Easy to send – and hard to miss!

Three advantages

Use SMS for channel-simultaneous visibility

High open rate

The majority of your customers have their mobile phone nearby. If you text them during any of the waking hours of the day, they won't be able to miss your message. The opening rate for SMS is higher than for many other channels.

Wide range

SMS does not require the installation of any special app. It also doesn't matter which model or system the customer uses – SMS is supported on all mobile phones! This guarantees a high reach, especially among those who do not have accounts with other platforms.

Cost effective

Of course, there are costs associated with sending SMS, but they are generally lower than the costs of traditional advertising methods. In addition, SMS allows for personalized and targeted messaging, allowing you to optimize your marketing efforts and reduce "waste".

Information

SMS – perfect for information

When your guests are coming to visit you in the near future, you have their full attention. During that period – from the time the customer buys a ticket or makes a reservation, until the experience takes place – you take advantage of the visitors' attention. Send reminders, information and other relevant content via SMS to fully prepare the customer for the visit.

Strategy

Treat the channel with care

Text messages are hard to miss – but can also cause irritation if they are sent too often or lack relevant content. You therefore need to have a strategy for how your SMS marketing should look like. How often should you send SMS? What are you going to say? And above all – which customers do you want to reach? With SMS, you have the chance to reach your ideal customers quickly, so make sure to set a clear plan and be spot-on in your dispatches!
