TXT180 Celebrates 4th Year Anniversary and Strong Growth
St. George, UT (PRWEB) August 05, 2014 -- Text message marketing has quickly become one of the most efficient and effective forms of marketing for businesses worldwide. Recent SMS marketing statistics indicate that between 90-95% (depending on which report is consulted) of recipients will read the text message within 5 minutes of receiving it. There is no other means of marketing in which a business can reach such a large percentage of their customer base within five minutes. Text marketing, also known as SMS (short message service) marketing is 100% opt-in based, meaning every phone number has to give explicit permission prior to any company sending a text message. As part of the deal, opt-out instructions are clear and concise and should be included on every message: “Stop to cancel”. These guidelines apply to any company using a short code. A recipient need only reply with the word stop to any mobile marketing message to be immediately removed from a list and stop all further text message communication from that specific company.
TXT180 has been a part of this industry for 4 years now and is so excited about the potential of text marketing. During the past year TXT180 has experience strong growth with sales increasing by 30%. Support manager Nick W. says, “It is tremendous to talk to small business owners that are just discovering text marketing, they had no idea how easy, cost-effective, and powerful it is and they can’t wait to get started.” TXT180 has a firm place in the market as the low-cost leader. Their platform is easy to use and provides all the essential elements required to support any type of business or organizations. TXT180 clients are able to run text for info campaigns, for one-time informational messages; text to vote campaigns, for high school talent shows, trips, or other activities; and text to win campaigns to give incentive for new opt-ins.
TXT180 does not support MMS (multi-media service) messages because of the cost involved. Their objective is to keep the service affordable so that every mom and pop shop can take advantage of this incredible marketing tool. Clients still have the option of including a link that can easily direct customers to a printable coupon, video presentation, or other multi-media message. TXT180 features also include additional marketing tools like a website widget, QR codes, and a hosted widget; these tools help ensure clients are getting every opt-in possible.
“One of the most frequent compliments we get is that we have terrific, personalized support. We are a small company so we know our customers individually, we understand their business model and are able to help them understand the program and give them specific ideas on how to make the most of the service,” Nick affirmed. So many companies don’t even offer phone support, but TXT180 is adamant that they will always answer their phones and support requests.
