Non-Promotional Text Messages

The winter holidays aren’t just about sales and discounts. Bring in-store and product discovery to your consumers mobile device with non-promotional SMS campaigns such as gift guides, e-gift cards, and new product and back-in-stock announcements.

Drive SMS list growth through offers and incentives. Use promotional and non-promotional offers to encourage consumers to sign-up for your SMS marketing program. The most effective way to encourage consumers to sign-up for texts from your brand is to offer discounts or similar incentives, but as an alternative you can highlight a loyalty or rewards program; or hint at exclusive first access to content and products.

One crucial audience brands can't afford to miss is brand loyalists. Rewarding brand loyalists is a great opportunity for rands to drive increased revenue during BFCM season with exclusive "VIP" discounts and early access to new products. Loyalists have higher conversion rates and yield higher ROI.

VIP / Loyalty

During Cyber Week, many shoppers expect deals and discounts. Even if your brand doesn’t normally discount, BFCM is an opportunity to share special offers and perks without diluting your brand. One effective strategy is sending a “days of deals” campaign to your SMS subscribers, offering a new deal each day. Not only does this create excitement around each new deal, but it will also help drive repeat visits to your website or store.

Promotional

During Cyber Week, as shoppers search for the best deals possible, they’ll inevitably leave items in their online shopping carts. If a shopper browsed a product but then left the site before adding to cart, brands can trigger them with browser abandonment reminders. Triggered abandoned cart reminders can help you recover otherwise lost revenue with a well-timed reminder, linking shoppers directly back to their carts to complete their purchase. 

Cart/Browse Abandonment

Creating two-way conversational text messaging campaigns helps you drive engagement. You can use these automated interactions to learn more about your audience’s preferences, and give them personalized offers and recommendations in return. You can also use two-way triggered messaging to delight your customers with seasonal, gamified experiences.
