Higher engagement compared to email marketing
Always obtain explicit consent before sending marketing messages and provide clear opt-out instructions in every message. Stay compliant with TCPA, GDPR, and other relevant regulations to avoid costly fines.
Send messages during business hours, avoiding early mornings or late evenings. For retail, consider sending promotional messages a few hours before peak shopping times or on days when your target audience is most likely to shop.
Get to the point quickly. Clearly state your offer, the value to the customer, and the call to action. Limit messages to 160 characters when possible to avoid splitting into multiple texts.
Use customer names and reference past purchases when appropriate. Personalized messages can increase conversion rates by up to 25% compared to generic broadcasts.

The most effective ways include offering text-to-join options at checkout, website signup forms with clear consent language, and in-store signage with keywords and short codes for instant list joining.
For most retailers, 2-4 messages per month is optimal. This keeps your brand top-of-mind without overwhelming customers. Special circumstances like major sales events might warrant additional messages.
