Text vs Calling? How do you get your prospects to respond?

Did you know that 75% of consumers recently reported that they don’t like talking to businesses on the phone.
And if they don’t recognize your number? In this case 1 in 4 will not even listen to your voicemail!
People don’t pick up the phone. They simply don’t.
The truth is:
People want everything, including conversations, to happen seamlessly and on demand, on THEIR demand.
This is why people prefer texting to talking. Texting is a less obtrusive, less stressful, and yet still a near-instant way to communicate. It’s when you can seamlessly connect your business with customers on their terms.
And because they’re instant, texts get up to a 98% open rate. That’s higher than any other form of communication.
High open rates are also why texting is 7 times more likely to get a response.
Texting is also more efficient than calling.
If you’ve set-up your texting templates, you can communicate efficiently with multiple prospects at a time.
Text messaging is an incredibly powerful tool for a business.
In fact, it can be a game-changer for your business.
Our SMART Hive CRM and Marketing software allows you to text right from the Client Communication panel. It keeps history of all communication in one place and quickly notifies you if there is a response. You can quickly switch between SMS and email, read through all prior communication, and set up your auto-responders based on the reply received.
All in one place.
Is your business using SMS Power to its full capacity?
