If anyone is using SMS with restaurants to build repeat customers, would you share with newbies like me what gets them to OK an SMS campaign? Thanks
Could any one tell how to start our own sms website where people can buy sms packs. Any advice will be appreciated.
I know that your list source would be appreciated here on this thread. I have had a lot of cost associates with getting lists. I know that the costs aren't related to the quality. You have to be careful
Here is my question on SMS marketing. Let me know if this is possible.
Instead of a squeeze page with Name and Email we have:
Name
Phone Number
Once they sign into the squeeze page with their info.
Is there a system like Aweber for the SMS service where I can set up my responses etc and market to them through SMS?
I agree with you darkwood. I have known so many hard working individuals who have got scammed just because someone has a claimed "targeted sms list". Just how targeted are these lists? This is probably why no one has had much success with generating sales from them.
The solution to this problem is to create your own lead capture page(s) on your purchased domain. People have the option to opt-in to your list; make them enter their name, cell phone, email, ext. Now you want to advertise you website with the lead capture page on Twitter or Facebook to name a few; wherever the traffic source is of course. Use Facebook and Twitter software and you can get hundreds and even thousands of numbers per day. These people will know why exactly they are giving you their precious cell phone number, and will not be uninterested, because they are expecting it! You will from their send them texts that contain links to your free e-books (for example) that contain value and significance.
It is so important to put yourself in the shoes of others, so that you can develop an excellent strategy; and there are many of these![]()
Yes, i have this system available. it is very easy to use and is about the same cost as aweber. PM me for details
Sly, you are right about this, but, that is pretty common knowledge. Of course you will have better luck with people that have opted in to your list then just randomly sending out messages. This is true in SMS, just as it is true in email marketing.
But bulk email or bulk sms works on volume, just a numbers game, of course the conversion rates will be way lower, but you just send out way more.
However, if you want to have an opt in for SMS, i have the system to allow you to do that, similar to aweber, collect their number and then start the drip, if you know what i mean.
PM me for more info.
I have got lots of succedss using this method earlier but now its so strict and not getting good benefit using it
