What Is A Text Blast?

A text blast is a way for an organization or individual to send multiple SMS messages to thousands of mobile users at once. It can be used to send personalized SMS texts to customers, staff, clients, and colleagues. Sending a text blast saves significant time and manpower by reaching thousands of people very quickly and effectively.
A text blast is different from a group text, as there is no reply all option for text blasts. All responses are handled individually, and recipients cannot see the other phone numbers you sent to.

Which Industries Can Benefit the Most from Using Mass Texting Software?

All organizations which have a need to communicate at scale can benefit greatly from using mass texts. Some examples are:

Dentists                                               Doctors

Lawyers                                               Restaurants/Fast Food

Political Campaigns                           Churches

Chiropractors                                     Tutors

Real Estate Professionals                 Nonprofits

Schools                                                Landscapers

Personal Trainers                              Plumbers

Gyms                                                    Spas

 

How Can Text Blasts Help You?

Send out Special Offers to Your Subscribers

75% of consumers want to receive texts with special offers. That means that 3 out of 4 of all consumers would like to see special offers, discounts, and coupons delivered to their smartphones via SMS! One strategy we recommend to take advantage of this trend is to use an urgent call-to-action such as a listing price alert. 

Inform Subscribers About Important Dates or Events

Overall, text messages enjoy an open rate of well over 98%, so even if they don’t reply, you can be sure that your messages will be received and opened. In contrast, email is the next best marketing channel and it has an average open rate of just 20% overall. There really is no better way to keep people informed about your business!

Grow Your Audience

If you need helping creating a subscriber list to blast, don’t worry! With Texting.io, growing your subscribers has never been easier. You can embed our custom form on your website to collect customer data, as well as use our keyword autoresponders to get them to text you first.
