6 Marketing Texts That
Get ResultsCheck out these
six great examples of marketing texts
to improve your SMS marketing
strategy.
According to research, approximately 90% of marketing texts still get opened. By being personalised, but not intrusive, your text message marketing can lead to great results. Here are some good examples.
OPEN
TEXT RECEIVED!
1. The Useful Text Message
One of the most important things you can
do is to make sure your marketing texts
are useful. People don’t want to receive useless
messages, but if you offer them
something of value such as a discount
or a free offer, they will appreciate it. By
researching your audience and targeting
your text, you can send each individual
a message that is relevant and useful
for them, making your texts helpful and
interesting instead of just spam.
Send out special, time limited offers
such as “Get 50% off your next visit
- claim within the next 24 hours.”. It
will give your customers a feeling of
urgency and inspire them to take action.
Give them a deadline and it will make
them feel like they should act now, so
that they don’t miss out on the discount
or special product you are offering.
2. The “Limited Time” Text Message
3. The “Short and Sweet” Text Message
You only have a few seconds to catch your customers’ attention. Get to the most important point of the message as soon as possible, without waffling or using unnecessary words. For example, “Spring sale ends Friday, don’t miss these deals!”
4. The Strong Call to Action Text
Message
Ensure the action you want your
customers to take is clearly outlined in
the text message in order to achieve
better results. For example, add a link
to your website to drive clicks from
smartphones.
Avoid overused marketing hype words
like “amazing” and “revolutionary”.
Your customers will roll their eyes and
delete your message if they spot these
insincere attempts to impress. If your
message contains any of these cliché
words, think about rewriting it.
5. The Succinct Text Message
6. The Text Message That Identifies Your
Brand
Many brands make the mistake of sending a text message without identifying who they are! These are certain to be deleted, so make sure that you clearly state your brand within the “sent from name” field.
