One way to work effectively with it is forms on your website for customers\/visitors to sign up for your SMS marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you have acceptance, in a welcome message you can repeat and be clear about how you will use SMS as a channel in your marketing. Tell them what kind of message and promotions the person can expect and how often you will send SMS, which you must also communicate in the web form of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 A tip for creating opportunities to expand your contact list is to work with campaigns where your current users can recruit friends\/colleagues in exchange for some form of gratuity, for example a discount code.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column grey-box is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-steg-2-relevant-innehall\">Step 2: Relevant content<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing your customer and user is critical to successful marketing in general and via SMS in particular as it is a very personal channel. To get to know your users, short surveys, 2-3 questions via SMS could be a way to go. Be sure to \"listen\" to the responses, document and group your contact lists into relevant groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Diversify your way of communicating, it makes your marketing more accurate and relevant to the recipient. Separate the type of offer\/information you send in SMS or e-mail. It should not be exactly the same content in different channels. Customized and \"fast\" offers are suitable for SMS as well as different types of reminders and possible late changes for example for an activity. This means that you can advantageously work with clear call-to-actions in SMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tone of your SMS should be personal without being familiar. Avoid having a buddy tone and don't use emojis. Professionalism in the content is important!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column grey-box is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-steg-3-innehall-som-ar-anpassat-for-sms\">Step 3: Content adapted for SMS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An SMS has a limit of 160 characters, when you exceed 160 characters, two or more SMS are automatically combined into one long one in the user's phone. This means that you must be short and concise in your communication. Work with your texts so that you communicate the absolutely most important thing without loosing the message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Links work perfectly well in SMS and thus you have a golden opportunity to drive traffic to campaign pages with complete information and clear offers to make a purchase, answer a survey or register for an event. Make sure these web pages are mobile friendly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You must also ensure in each SMS that the customer has the opportunity to unsubscribe from future mailings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column grey-box is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\" id=\"h-steg-4-statistik-for-att-utveckla-innehall-och-relation\">Step 4: Statistics to develop content and customer relationship<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With digital and web-adapted tools comes great opportunities to follow the user's behaviour. This means that you can get to know the customer even a little better for each action he takes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be thorough in analyzing your statistics to be able to develop and refine both your ways of communicating and your relationship with the user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be about learning everything from what type of content and offer gives the best effect to investigating which times and which days are best suited for mailing to your specific target groups.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button my-5\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/34.88.191.99\/en\/sms-marketing\">Read more about SMS Marketing<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>fyra steg till SMS Marknadsf\u00f6ring som ger effekt Om du f\u00f6ljer stegen nedan \u00e4r du p\u00e5 god v\u00e4g att skapa en kraftfull marknadsf\u00f6ringskanal direkt in i hj\u00e4rtat hos dina kunder Och kom ih\u00e5g: SMS \u00e4r och f\u00f6rblir en effektiv kanal, 90 procent av alla SMS l\u00e4ses inom 90 sekunder!
