Definition and benefits of SMS Marketing campaigns

SMS campaigns can be defined as a marketing strategy that consists in sending promotional and sales messages to mobile devices using a short text. It is a communication tool that is much used by companies that want to communicate effectively and quickly with their contact list.

SMS advertising campaigns have an excellent opening rate of about 95%.

Sarbacane is a reference sending platform for your SMS marketing campaigns.

What is the difference between SMS marketing and Notification?

The marketing sms is a message used to send promotional offers to your customers. This can be a sales proposal, or an invitation to your events...

The SMS notification, also called alert notification messages, allows companies to inform their customers of an action done or to be done. They are related to critical information often expected by the recipient (password change, alerts, notifications of shipment or order delivery, confirmation or reminder of appointments, etc...).

How to create an SMS campaign?

Professional SMS campaigns are an integral part of the companies' communication strategy. They make it possible to convert prospects and build customer loyalty.

Respect the maximum number of characters

The message of your SMS marketing must be clear and concise in order to capture the attention of your contacts. An SMS can contain 160 characters. An SMS campaign can contain up to 450 characters, meaning the equivalent of 3 sms, to be sent in a single message block.

Personalize your SMS marketing

You can personalize the sender of your SMS campaign. This personalization allows you to be identified more easily and to create a trust-based relationship with your recipients. It is also possible to personalize the content of each SMS sent with dynamic fields (First name, Last name...).

Optimize your mobile landing pages

The link to a mobile landing page allows you to enrich your SMS marketing with a longer message. They promote quick access to important information and engage your customers.

What is the difference between a simple SMS and a rich SMS?

A "simple" SMS is understood to be when you insert a link to your website or to a web page not hosted by our Sarbacane.

We define an "enriched" SMS as a link to a landing page created from Sarbacane. The pages created with Sarbacane are automatically responsive.
