SMS marketing tool for your company

Benefits of SMS marketing tools

SMS marketing tools offer numerous advantages over traditional newsletter platforms such as email or SMS. Here are some of the key benefits:
‍

1. Personal user atmosphere — perfect for marketing
   ‍In contrast to email, the user atmosphere of SMS is very informal, as most users communicate with friends and family via SMS. When companies can be reached via SMS and send newsletters to customers, this creates a proximity to the customer that is simply not possible with e-mail newsletters. E-mails are too distant and too impersonal and are therefore not the right way to go as a marketing channel that is primarily intended to influence consumers' emotional buying behavior.

‍

2. Faster and more direct communication with customers
   ‍When you send promotional messages using SMS marketing tools, they are usually read within seconds. The response time is therefore many times shorter than for emails. Companies can also get in touch with their customers directly without them having to download an additional app.

‍

3. Higher newsletter opening and conversion rates
   ‍Since SMS messages are usually read immediately, the opening and click rates for SMS newsletter campaigns are often higher than for emails. A study by Mobile Marketing Watch has shown that the opening rate of SMS messages is over 90%, while the opening rate of emails is only around 20%.

‍

4. No spam folder
   ‍Another advantage is that SMS marketing messages are guaranteed to reach recipients and are not sorted into the spam folder by the mail provider like many e-mail newsletters. Between personal messages from friends and family, your newsletter will get the attention it deserves.

‍

5. Personalization options for an individual approach
   ‍With SMS marketing tools, companies can send personalized messages to their customers to ensure an individual approach. For example, they can use the customer's name in the message or send personalized offers based on previous buying behavior.

‍

6. Higher sales
   ‍The excellent opening rate, combined with customer proximity via SMS and the resulting significantly higher conversion rate, leads to significantly increased sales revenues. Various experience reports show that switching from email to SMS marketing tools can significantly contribute to company success.

‍

7. Increased customer loyalty
   ‍If you make sure to offer your customers added value with SMS marketing through a high level of personalization and don't send the newsletter too often, your customers will appreciate the messages as useful information. The probability of recurring purchases is increased and customer loyalty is increased. This increases sales in the long term and increases customer lifetime value.

These benefits make SMS marketing tools an ideal addition to your marketing strategy. Don't miss out on the extra sales!

With hellomateo, automated SMS messages about orders can of course also be sent. Messages like this are not promotional messages, but important customer information and therefore do not require an opt-in.

With a little creativity, SMS marketing tools can effectively increase sales. Be sure to add value to your customers.
