Text Tips to Connect with Budget-Conscious Consumers

SMS & Text Techniques to Ramp Up Sales & Customer Connections

Drive sales with customers looking to save both money and time.

Saint Louis, Missouri (August 31, 2009) - SMS and text tools from MESSAGEbuzz are a great way to connect with consumers looking for savings and values. Text coupons and offers may be the first option that comes to mind; but many successful MESSAGEbuzz clients combine text coupons with games and alerts to drive sales with customers looking to save both money and time!   Consider some of the following text marketing tips:

• Strengthen your customer connection - In every text communication your top objective should be to get closer to your customers.  We’re all living through challenging economic times. Find a way to acknowledge that everyone is tightening their belts and surprise your customers with a SMS coupon, text discount or give away.  Taking that extra step will strengthen customer loyalty, which will benefit you now and in the long run when customers are again able and ready to spend more freely.
  
  
• Offer ideas & alternatives – Since many consumers may be reducing their spending, they are looking for alternatives.  A solid mobile marketing program focused on the customer’s needs will position your brand in the palm of the consumer’s hand!  Offer consumers ideas on low cost alternatives or the trendy must-haves you have available to them.
  
  
• Make it a real deal – Provide them a deal they can’t refuse and that’s a guaranteed way to see a mobile payoff.
  
  
• Encourage future buys with customer rewards - Offer special discounts, coupons and rewards consumers can use on future purchases. Use text programs to your advantage by gathering additional profile information from participating customers that you can use for improving the timing and targeting of future text marketing campaigns.
