1. Add exclusive offer to your bulk SMS marketing campaign

Create the sense of importance, and exclusivity. In order to sell the product, you have to stand out of the crowd, to appeal to emotions, or just to be unique. Send offers and promotions that your audience can’t find on your website or social media platforms. Clients don’t want to get boring, simple, “offer” messages on their phone. Make their experience with you useful, and exciting. That is the secret that can increase your army of service/product users.

Nevertheless, it is even more important to understand what your audience want and what its needs?

Another 43% is ready to receive different types of promotional messages in exchange for free content, services, bonuses, etc. Feel free to offer your clients what they really want.

3.Don’t disturb your audience

Don’t send bulk SMS campaigns at 7 am in the morning, or after 9 pm in the evening, to avoid complains of those who goes to sleep early, and wakes up late. Don’t forget about time difference, if your bulk SMS campaigns launch in different countries. Best timing, for the bulk SMS marketing campaign, is 10.30-12.30, and 13 pm-15 pm.
