Why Text?
You may be thinking, "Yes! This is what I've been waiting for!" But others may wonder, "Why do I need to add text message marketing to my business strategy? I'm satisfied with email marketing!"
Here's the thing: emails are great - we talk about why and how to use them in previous blogs - but too often, they end up in the promotional folder or worse, the spam folder. Because customers often don't even see emails, the average open rate for emails can be as low as 20-30%.
Text messages, on the other hand, get incredible engagement:
- 90% of people read texts within 3 seconds of receiving them
- Text messages get a 98% open rate
- Customers use mobile coupons 10x more than other methods
Text message marketing is the perfect way to freshen your follow-up campaigns and get your customers more engaged.
How AllProWebTools Text/Phone Integration Works
- Customers text you directly from your website.
- The new lead gets tagged.
- You receive a notification of the new text in your Workflow Timeline, email inbox, and/or as a text message.
OR
- Your customers enter their name and phone number in a sign-up box on your website or social profile.
- They receive a text code to verify their number and that they want to receive texts from you.
- The new lead gets tagged in a list based on which sign-up box they filled out.
- You receive a notification of the new lead in your Workflow Timeline, email inbox, and/or as a text message
Text Message Marketing Advantages
- Immediate - customers see your text within minutes, and you can respond to texts from customers quickly.
- Personal - with a 10-digit, local number, customers feel like they have a direct connection to you.
- Private - the business number from Phone.com lets you keep work and personal life separate.
- Convenient - you can receive calls and texts from the business number on your personal phone or computer. Because the number is separate, you always know how to answer!
- Organized - since all texts and calls show up in the Workflow Timeline, you can see which team member talked to which customer, how long they talked, and what they discussed. Communication within the company was never easier!
- Straightforward - customers have just one number for the company, while any salesperson has the opportunity to follow-up with a new text lead.
