However this also possible to start your bulk message campaign on
your own but it is not advisable. Sending promotional text messages
is an art as most of the telecoms service provider allows only one
hundred and sixty characters in a regular text message. Design and
content of the message is very important to leave a impression over
the receiver of the message. While most of the business owner
wants maximum amount of returns from their promotional
campaigns, accuracy of message is the area where one focuses the
least.
Interestingly you do not even need a mobile device to send
messages this can be done on sitting with your computer on line.
That is why some people refer mass sms campaign as text from
computer campaign. To send text from computer you will require
following things - sms gateway, messaging software, database to
mobile numbers and off course a text to send. Now there are
variations in the type of message you wish to send like it can be one
way message or it can be two way message. In one way message
users can not respond back to your message and this type of
messages are useful when you just want to pass a piece of
information. In case you are seeking response from your customers
or prospects you need to send them two way message some
common areas where two way messages can be sent are in surveys
and in polls.
Here point to notice is that you can use two way messages for your
regular mass sms campaign but the cost for these type of messages
is quite high as compared to regular one way messages.
