SMS Marketing Tactics
Make it personal
Make your text messages less formal and more friendly. Using words like “you” and “I” is one of the best techniques for making text messages personal. For example, Banana Republic often sends text messages that include words like “friends”.
Entice the customer
Start by creating uniquely generated coupon codes to prevent non-subscribers from taking advantage of your deal. That way, people must opt in to save. Add value to the offers by giving your customers personal codes to distribute to their friends. Make sure both parties benefit, e.g., " Here's 20% off for you, and 20% off for a friend".
Collect Opt-in
If your business sells products or services online, you have the perfect opportunity to obtain your customers' contact numbers along with other details.
