Smart phones, cell phones and other mobile devices are so prevalent these days that small businesses, Fortune 500 companies and even government organizations are using a specialized SMS Service for all their communications.
According to a 2009 report by Opus Research, almost 90 percent of Americans own a mobile phone and almost 70 million go online each month via mobile phones. There are also roughly 3.5 billion text messages sent in the U.S. on a daily basis.
It’s no wonder that organizations of all sizes are sending Bulk SMS messages in the form of news, alerts, appointment reminders and promotional offers. Most marketers and other professionals are finding that SMS text messaging is easier, more affordable and immediate than sending an email campaign, printing posters or even running a TV commercial.
Mass text messaging ensures high-impact, instant delivery, a message-open rate of more than 90 percent, sharing of information in a viral way and the opportunity to create and boost your positive brand image.
No other solution provides bulk/group texting, mobile keywords, 2-way messaging, mobile voting, mobile coupons and picture messaging like Apollo’s All-In-One Multi-Channel Marketing and Messaging solution.
A permission-based system like Apollo’s SMS Service lets people opt-in to receive information and updates from you when they scan your Quick Response (QR) code or text a Mobile Keyword like “Pizza” to your short code (a 5 or 6 digit phone number designed for sending and receiving commercial text messages).
Then, all you must do is simply remember to send a text message to all of your contacts on a regular basis. You’ll have the unique opportunity to personally engage with your customers, prospects, employees and staff. You’ll realize real and quantifiable results.
Unlike other solutions, Apollo’s All-In-One Multi-Channel Marketing platform integrates SMS and MMS Mobile Text, Email, IM, Voice, and Social Media marketing to deliver an incredible value – giving you the biggest bang for your buck.
