Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is email and SMS marketing?
Email marketing involves sending commercial messages to a list of subscribers who have opted-in to receive them. SMS marketing uses text messages to deliver marketing messages directly to a customer's mobile phone.
Is email marketing good for small businesses?
For small businesses, email marketing is a powerful tool that can level the playing field against larger competitors. It offers a cost-effective way to reach a targeted audience, build relationships, and ultimately boost sales.
How to combine sms marketing and email campaigns for maximum engagement?
When used together, SMS and email marketing can create a dynamic duo that supercharges your marketing efforts and maximises customer engagement. Here's how to combine these channels for optimal results:
- Start with SMS: SMS boasts phenomenal open rates, making it ideal for grabbing immediate attention and driving action.
- Follow up with Email: After an initial SMS notification, send a more detailed email with additional information, images, or CTAs.
- Segment Your Audience: Don't blast the same message to everyone. This personalisation ensures your messages are relevant and resonate with each recipient.
- Offer Exclusive Deals: Create a sense of exclusivity by providing early access to promotions through SMS. This incentivises users to opt-in for SMS updates.
- Track and Analyse Results: Monitor the performance of both your campaigns to see what works best for your audience and refine your strategy accordingly.
