What Is Automated Texting?
Automated text messaging can be referred to as scheduling instant text messaging. They are basically text messages, which are written in advance and are conveniently scheduled to be transmitted to your intended target audience at a particular time on a preset date. They’re specifically used to create timely connections with your customer base. In most cases, they are used by businesses and corporations to enhance customer relations.
Automated Text messaging campaigns are now used by a variety of organizations and businesses. Some of these include (but aren’t limited to) the automotive industry, real estate professionals, health care providers, educational institutions, and online marketing. The reasons for their popularity can largely be attributed to their ever-increasing effectiveness, minimal costs, and convenience.
Why Automated Text Messages?
Opt-In Keyword Campaign
One way to take advantage of automated text messaging software is to set up an opt-in keyword campaign. This allows your customers to text a special keyword that you create to your dedicated text messaging phone number which adds them to a group text message based on their interest in your offering.
A great example of this type of campaign in action is when a restaurant leaves its customers a flyer with their pizza opt-in keyword to get weekly deals texted to them. By opting into this keyword, the restaurant’s customers are added to a list of text message subscribers based on their mutual interest in pizza promotions. This allows the restaurant to set up weekly SMS text promotions in advance to be sent at a scheduled date and time every week.
Automatic Appointment Reminders
According to recent surveys of a variety of appointment-based industries regarding their no-show rates, no-shows can range from 15% up to 30% depending on the industry. That means you can expect roughly a quarter of your scheduled appointments will turn out to be no-shows!
