Making it Quick & Easy to Promote Online Gift Cards this Holiday Season with Messaging!

The holidays are coming up FAST! We want to make gifting extra easy on your clients this holiday season, with Online Gift Cards! But first, how do you make sure you clients know about your Online Gift Cards?

When you’re trying to promote and SELL a product like Online Gift Cards, do you just choose one channel, cross your fingers and hope for results? Nope! One itty-bitty post to Instagram isn’t going to drive those sales all on its own. It has to work with all the other powerful channels you have in your marketing toolkit to get you the results you’re envisioning.

Are you catching my drift yet? We are talking about Message (a.k.a. SMS) marketing.

Messaging is very effective

So why are SMS so special? Well, our fab SMS provider MessageMedia, has found that 90% of text messages are read within 90 seconds. That’s crazy fast, right?!

It’s because we largely use texting as a social means of communication rather than just a marketing tool, much like email has become. We are much more likely to open and read texts as they come in!

So how can you use them to your advantage this holiday season?
