Harness the Reach of SMS Keywords

Promote your company’s mobile and SMS text marketing program via your website, print ads, commercials, table tent cards and servers. All customers do is text a keyword to a five-digit number and they’re automatically added to your list.

As a sign-up incentive, provide a coupon or special offer. They text PIZZA, for example, and get extra toppings for free. Or they text YUMMY and get $3 off their bill.

You can even use different keywords to distinguish between groups of customers. If your weekend crowd differs from your evening clientele, use keywords unique to each group and provide them with special offers targeted at their preferences.

Want to encourage engagement with your customers? Let them use keywords to participate in contests. Have them vote for their favorite service, special or item. Suddenly, they’re taking an active role in your company’s success. And your list is growing by the minute!

Tap the Power of QR Codes

Take your marketing up a notch for even bigger sales gains with QR (Quick Response) codes. Place these barcodes on posters, menus, business cards or table cards where they can be scanned by smartphones to display data or link to a web page with information such as:

• Hours of operation
• Link to website or facebook
• Services or menu items
• Daily specials
• Mobile coupons
• Favorable reviews
• Upcoming events
• Videos on your services
