SMS text marketing is something that is new to most businesses and in fact mist of us have yet to receive a marketing text message to our phone from any business. Even though you do not see any evidence of text marketing it is out there in large numbers and for local businesses it offers a way to increase ROI by large numbers. Email subscription lists are the closest way to offer an example of how SMS text marketing can be used. Just as you would opt-in to an email list which only has an open rate of about 7 % you can opt-in to a cell text message list. With much less rules and regulations the SMS list could be abused but at the same time it costs more to send out mass messages which prevents spam at the numbers you get in your email box.

1300 numbers are one of the most efficient ways to expand your business because of local call rates and ease of communication they offer. These are also known as Local Rate Numbers or SmartNumbers. They allow your customers call at local call rates from any area you set up through your phone company. These numbers have services throughout Australia, routing the calls to your desired number and place. You only need to connect your mobile or landline number to this number. The person who calls to your Local Rate Numbers will not know your original number.

The advantages at this point in SMS email marketing are plainly obvious. Most people do not receive text messages on their cell phones from businesses. When people do receive text messages from businesses they likely have a high trust factor with that company to allow them to send text messages. Most people read every single text message that hits their cell phone while email open rates are around 7 percent. The statistics prove that because of the high responsiveness of text based marketing marketers have a much easier chance of converting more customers through cell phone marketing than almost any other medium. Marketing products that require only a couple clicks to purchase via a cell phone allow some companies to make high profits with little effort.
