» Thorntons Partner with Text Marketer

World famous chocolatiers Thorntons, have chosen Text Marketer to help run their current bulk sms campaign.

SMS Services beat direct mail for response

Using a bulk sms service to promote a retail business is incredibly cost effective and very responsive. Text credits are the lowest in the mobile marketing  industry nd you can expect response rates of up to 18%. (source – Mobile marketing Association.) In comparison, direct mail generates response rates of up to 2%.

Setting up a bulk sms account is free and you get 10 free text credits so you can test the system before making a text credit purchase.
