TXT180.com Announces Zapier Integration for SMS Marketing
ST. GEORGE, Utah (PRWEB) March 22, 2018 -- In this digital age, it seems that there is an app, software, or program for everything - all designed to make managing daily life easier and faster. Only, now people are finding they have dozens of apps, too many logins to count, let alone remember, and no way to manage it all from one place. TXT180 support manager, Stephanie B. said, 'We've seen multi-app management issues with many of our text message marketing customers, simplifying that process has prompted our decision to integrate with Zapier."
What is Zapier? Zapier is a system that allows individual applications and software programs to work together, behind the scenes. For instance, if an organization has an event registration software that people use to register for upcoming events, they may want the ability to send a text reminder to the registrants the week before, day before, of maybe both, reminding participants of the upcoming event. With sms messaging they can send as many text reminders as they want, once the registrant has given that permission. The question is, how do they get the mobile number from the event system to the text marketing platform? Using Zapier the event system can be linked directly to the text software, like TXT180.com. The customer only enters their information once and the data is stored on both platforms simultaneously.
Integration options are plentiful; whether the business is selling from a web store, collecting data from a Google Form, using a popular scheduling software, or sending newsletters from an email platform - all of this can now be integrated to work in conjunction with the TXT180 text message marketing software. The integration goes both ways; if a speaker wants to collect email address via text at a live convention they can have the audience text a keyword to the TXT180 short code and then have them enter an email address. With Zapier integration to their email client, the business collects the email via text and that email address is passed over to the email software.
Subsequently, the organization has the ability to email a link or pdf to the attendees and has permission to text them with other information about upcoming events, special offers, etc. Text marketing is one of the most effective ways of reaching individuals. SMS marketing statistics show that 98% of texts are read, 90% within 3 minutes of receiving it! However, sms marketing is limited in the length and type of content that can be sent - making the integration with other software and applications very valuable. TXT180 has a complimentary app for customers to use when sending bulk text messages to their clients. There is a TXT180 Apple app and a TXT180 Android app for customers to use with a mobile device.
