Mobile Marketing

Text Messaging Campaigns

Mobile marketing is the future of marketing. We all use cell phones. Everyday billions of text messages are sent back and forth by millions of people in the US alone. Nearly every phone in the United States supports text messaging. Over half of all Americans have sent or received a text message. The average mobile phone subscriber sends nearly 200 text messages every month. When you look closer, at the prized 18 – 29 demographic, the adoption rate is even higher, edging toward saturation at 85%. Among those 30 – 49 years old , the adoption rate is at 65% and climbing. So Americans are clearly texting. But what do they think about being marketed to via text message?

In a recent Direct Marketing Association survey, 70% of the sample revealed that they had responded to a marketing text message. To put this in perspective, the DMA adds that only 30% of those surveyed responded to a marketing email. Ocelot Marketing only uses proven technologies. Everything else is a waste of your time. As internet marketers. we are constantly looking for the next new technology which can increase our customers ROI (return on investment). Below I will show you exactly how we can turn your frustration of advertising into joy with our text messaging campaigns.

Text Messaging Campaigns are Simple:

Nearly every mobile phone supports text messaging, and with 600 billion text messages sent per year in the United States, a majority of consumers are familiar with the technology.

Cost:

In economic times good or bad, you always want to keep a careful eye on the return on investment (ROI) of your marketing campaigns. Mobile marketing with text messaging fulfills this goal in two ways. First, text messaging is inexpensive. Rates per message are as low as a 20 cents each. And second, Ocelot Marketing will carefully monitor costs and response rates in real time. Ready to learn how easy it is to launch your first mobile marketing campaign?

Why are consumers so eager to respond?

It’s Interactive:

21st century marketing is about having a conversation with your customers, rather than shouting at them. A world saturated with intrusive advertising like spam, pop-ups, and commercials has overwhelmed consumers. Increasingly, they tune out messages broadcast to a wide audience, whether by using digital video recorders to skip past commercials, or simply by ignoring the banner ads on their favorite website. Does this remind you of anyone?

It’s Personal:

Your customers expect you to speak to them, and text messaging allows you to reach them individually, whenever, wherever, in the palm of their hands. This is very valuable to your customers. With a few taps of their thumbs they can respond to whatever message that you have sent them. With text messaging you can build relationships with your customers.

It’s Immediate:

Text Messaging, like Twitter, and Instant Messaging, is blazingly fast. With text messaging you can communicate with your customers as speedily as they are now accustomed to living. You can also move quickly. Say you are a bar who just bought the Pay-Per View UFC Fight and you want to announce to all your customers that you are the place to go. Well now, you can.

It’s Trackable:

When you send out text messages to your customers you can see, in real time, who has responded to your message.

It’s New:

Although thousands of companies large and small are already marketing to their customers via text message, the medium is still in its infancy. If you act now, you are letting your customers know that you are a forward-thinking organization. Your marketing efforts will break through the traditional clutter.

The Bottom Line, excuse us, Your Bottom Line:

High Penetration Rate – Half of all Americans are already texting, and even those who don’t text are almost certain to own a phone that supports text messaging. Over 250 million Americans own a mobile phone, and nearly all of them are ready to receive your message. No other type of mobile marketing can match text messaging’s reach.

Begin The Conversation With Text Messaging – Other types of mobile marketing will grow in importance in the future. If you start text messaging with your customers now, you’ll have the relationship (and data) in place to reach them in new ways in the future.
