Building your own lead database is essential whatever method of marketing you use. To send marketing messages to your customers you must have 2 things: a message to send and somewhere to send it.
One of the most effective ways of collecting this data is with an inbound shortcode number. You will have seen examples of these all over the place, like text to win competitions. Something along the lines of "send "brochure" to 60888 for a free brochure of our european bus tours. This would be an effective way of collecting leads for a bus tour operator.
Rival SMS providers normally charge between £30 to £100 per month for this service, due to its high value to the customer. Txt First are offering this service free of charge, for every customer. There is no committment required, no financial outlay for the shortcode service and we will provide support on how to make the most of the service.
If you decide to use your leads to send marketing messages to, we are ideally placed to help. You will not find another provider in the UK who offers bulk sms credits at a lower price. We also only use high quality routes for our text messaging service, which means you get a reliable service and know your message will be delivered when you want it to be.
