TextBlue | Benefits of Bulk SMS Text Messaging

The benefits of Bulk SMS Text Messaging are endless. Text Messaging can be used for one off mass text messaging marketing campaigns for companies, reminding their customers about their appointments or to arrange a quick staff meeting. Bulk SMS Text messaging can be used to benefit companies and can be a benefit for a wide range of industries including the following:

Taxi Companies - Your Taxi base can send text messages with a personalised sender name e.g. From: ABC Taxi to customers to confirm the taxi arrival time.
Car Dealerships - Send text messages to buyers that are looking for a specific vehicle with your new stock as it arrives.
Garages - Send customers MOT reminders and confirmation that a vehicle is ready for collection.
Restaurants - Send special offers, booking reminders, etc.
Estate Agents - Send property updates with details to buyers fitting their specific requirements.
Take Away Establishments - Send texts to confirm food delivery e.g. your food is on its way, thank you for ordering with us. On another day, promotions could be sent to these same customers increasing sales e.g. fancy a Hot Pepperoni Pizza this evening? As a valued customer show us this message and we will give you £1 off!
Dentists, Hair Salons, Beauty Salons, and Doctors Etc. - Send appointment reminders, because it costs just a few pence per text message, we would recommend sending out 2 text message reminders, 1 a week before the appointment and 1 the morning of the appointment. These messages would dramatically reduce the number of missed appointments saving you money and time, not just in missed appointments, but in stationary also.
Delivery Companys - Send delivery times, a tracking number and contact number to the customer making it easy for them to reschedule delivery in the event that no one is available to sign, this in turn, will effectively minimise failed deliveries.
Double glazing, Telephone Installation, TV Installation, Plumbing, Electrical Companies - Send installation or repair confirmation texts to confirm when they will take place to ensure that there will be someone available. This would save on wasted calls and reduce your telephone costs.
Recruitment Agencies - Sent text messages to your clients detailing new suitable positions available.
Direct Sales Companies - Run a text marketing campaign and save a fortune, instead of hiring an outbound call centre paying salaries, commissions, telephone costs and other high overheads, you can save tremendously by simply running a text marketing campaign. This would have the added benefit of providing better accuracy and higher penetration rates; you can then have an inbound sales force to simply take orders.
Insurance Companies - Send reminder texts when insurance is due for renewal.
Schools, Private Nurseries, Etc. - Send out reminders of fees, school trip money, cancellations of sports days or school closures due to the weather etc.
DVD, Game and Music Retailers - Send customers texts to inform them about new releases and promotions or when that new game or film has been released.
Cinema - Send customers texts about promotions and new releases.
Banks - Send texts to customers confirming the clients current balance information or offer a paid service where a customer wants to receive a text message confirming every transaction.
Airlines - Send texts to passengers regarding flight delays, lost baggage tracking, picking up family, etc.
Credit Bureau - With identity theft at an all time high, offering customers a chargeable text every time a credit check is done would cut identity theft right down and create an additional revenue stream.
