Text Can't Be Marginalized

Robert Carroll, a CEO at SDL Web Content Management Solutions raised a good article for those marketers out there. On this article (source: Mobile Marketer), Robert shares some ideas on how marketers increase can differentiate the variety of mobile hypes to engage current and potential customers.

Here's some of the brief information in mobile marketing by utilizing SMS:

Not only does texting have deep roots in friend-to-friend communication, it has much stricter rules governing its use than email does, lowering the level of innate resistance to messages received through the medium.

Mobile users have long since wired texting into their behavioral patterns. You get the alert. You read the text. You respond—because you want to.

Not only do text messages have an extraordinary open rate, evidence suggests the response rate also exceeds the performance of other marketing channels.

When used to make real-time, on-the-spot offers, texting has repeatedly yielded a better than 10 percent response.

As long as the offers made via SMS are perceived to be of real value to the recipient, the relationship of trust between consumer and brand only deepens with each exchange. 

According to a 2010 research report from the Mobile Marketing Association, mobile advertising, too, vastly outperforms outreach in any other medium:

• 45 percent of consumers notice mobile advertising

• Of these, 29 percent respond to mobile advertising

• Of these, 39 percent make a purchase

Meaning most of the mobile devicaes sold last year were simple text-enabled mobile phones. It can be highlighted that text messaging is an efficient channel for communicating with customers and prospects.

There are a number of things to consider when creating an SMS marketing campaign.

1. Create a good relationship with consumer – A simple introduction within the message would create a good impression. For example, “Hey, thanks for following. You just receive…”

2. Make it personal. Not a mass communication – Mention their names, personally. Such as “Hi Brad, thanks for purchasing with us”

3. All about value and timing – Understand your market, send them messages during the appropriate time with a suitable content.

4. Provide options to them – let your customer choose what they want. Such keywords like “STOP”, “Subscribe”, “Reply” are shall be given to them.

A "mobile" who forgets its shell.

As brands continue to incorporate mobile bar codes, advertising and content into their mobile campaigns, it is important not to forget about the significant role that SMS plays in consumer engagement. It again needs to be ensured that the strategy comes from highlighting the content and value to drive user engagement.

According to Jody Haneke, president of Haneke Design, SMS is just as important to have as a mobile Web strategy. It is agreed that having some sort of call to action to get somebody is important especially incorporating SMS into the marketing strategies. There’s just a whole lot of opportunity still in the SMS component of mobile marketing.

“SMS is where all the action is today.”
