With the explosion of smartphones and low-cost data, mobile marketing is undergoing a rapid transformation in India. Businesses are now creating more powerful customer engagement journeys on SMS than just sending plain-vanilla SMS. With the right tools, you can now send HTML surveys, brochures, weblinks and mobile coupons via SMS, and even interact with your customers on the channel.

SMS has 5x higher open rates and response rates than Email and other social media channels and so, you are guaranteed better results! At Textlocal, we experience this difference first-hand for all our comms, including this monthly newsletter sent via SMS and email.
