Competitions

Run your own text message-based competitions and quickly build your database.

With SMS competitions, everyone wins. You get all the benefits of an engaged audience, while your customers get the chance to win great discounts and prizes, invitations to special events, and early access to new products.
Launching a competition is one of the most effective marketing strategies you can use to build a database.
Combine this with the quickness of SMS, and you will notice the results. An SMS entry can be as simple as texting a Keyword to your SMS Account virtual number.
Every time someone takes part, an automated reply message is sent back to them and their mobile number is captured in your list for future SMS campaigns. You can also combine this with Sequenced messaging to schedule a follow-up SMS after the competition is finished.
