The Big 3: SMS Mobile Application shortfalls!

The Big 3: SMS Mobile Application shortfalls!

The search for the best SMS Mobile Marketing application can be daunting! Who has the best pricing, the most robust application, most features, or even the best support and training? This isn’t even everything, as many companies offer much more than just SMS in the applications being offered.   Here is our list of the 3 biggest things to pay attention to when selecting an SMS application;

  1. Nothing to sell but SMS – When selecting a provider, pay attention to other items they may have that offer the potential to be monetized. Meaning, are you just going to be able to sell mobile coupons and their focus is primarily Restaurants and retail? Or do they have other features to sell that will open the door to countless other opportunities? Examples would be do they offer an API, training and tools for churches and non-profits, mobile websites/apps, email, virtual business cards, or just SMS campaign management?
  1. Poor Volume pricing – When you have 100 clients or are sending 100,000 SMS per month or more, who will provide the best wholesale SMS pricing and the application that will support it with the least cost. Work some different scenarios of number of clients and number of messages and think to the future.
  1. Lack of Support – Many SMS application providers will pat you on your back and say “Have a great time” after they sell you their service. Others have documented follow-up and support protocol, on-demand training, and more to make sure that your investment in an SMS application goes the way you want it to!
