Txtlocal Cut Price for Small Business

Leading mobile marketing firm www.txtlocal.com have cut their shared Short Code (60777) price by 66% in a bid to make Mobile Marketing more affordable to small businesses hit by the current economic downturn.

(Vocus/PRWEB ) February 18, 2009 -- Leading mobile marketing firm www.txtlocal.com have cut their shared Short Code (60777) price by 66% in a bid to make Mobile Marketing more affordable to small businesses hit by the current economic downturn. The move is already paying off with a number of existing clients upgrading their service to include a short code.

From a price perspective we want mobile marketing to be affordable to all SME’s and public sector organisations, from local chip shops to churches, charities and councils.

It’s a low cost tool that can help organisations generate new leads quickly and easily.

The top sectors making the move include hair & beauty salons, finance companies, golf clubs and local councils. Feedback confirms that the primary goal of these businesses is to build an opt-in list of customer numbers to further engage.

A Short Code can be set up within 24hrs and by publishing it on all marketing material, websites and adverts, businesses give customers the opportunity to opt-in to their contact database. This in turn gives businesses highly qualified customer and prospect data to send sales promotions.

Txtlocal Director Alastair Shortland is enthusiastic about the new price change and believes it will lead to more growth “From a price perspective we want mobile marketing to be affordable to all SME’s and public sector organisations, from local chip shops to churches, charities and councils.”

He continues “It’s a low cost tool that can help organisations generate new leads quickly and easily.”

A Txtlocal Short Code 60777 is now available for a setup fee of £50, with an ongoing monthly operating fee from £25.
