Mobile Marketing that’s Simple, Effective, and Affordable
Mobile marketing is a term that gets tossed around a lot these days, but suffice it to say that it’s a way to market your business, group, church, restaurant, etc., using SMS/Text marketing and mobile-friendly websites.
Adding mobile marketing to your current advertising campaigns lets customers take nearly instant advantage of text coupons, get alerts about events, get updates about special menu items, and so much more!
70% of all mobile searches (those done on a phone) result in action within 1 hour, while 70% of online searches result in action in one month. (Mobile Marketer, 2012)
This is especially true for smaller businesses who need to stretch every last marketing dollar they have at their disposal. Mobile marketing is extremely cost effective and can reach your customers whenever you need to.
