SendTree is a group text messaging service that is not only extremely affordable; it’s easy to use. SendTree allows you to to send timely text messages to your customers with just the push of a button. Send sales reminders, mobile coupons, or special event notifications to your customers anytime, anywhere.
“Arguably, small-business owners are in a better position to use mobile for customer engagement,” according to Christopher M. Litster, a Senior Vice President at Constant Contact.
“For small-business owners, it’s all about connecting with customers as opposed to amassing fans and followers. Since they have a smaller customer base compared with big chains, they’re able to more actively engage them," Litster concludes.
So the next time you have a big sales event to announce, or if you just need to entice your loyal patrons to stop in and shop, how are you going to do it?
You could go the traditional marketing route
and run an (expensive) ad in the local paper, or share it on Facebook, Twitter
and Instagram. Those would most likely be effective tactics to have in your
marketing mix. But with SendTree, you can more directly reach the audience that
has proven they are willing to buy from you — your actual customers.
