Elevate Your E commerce Business with SMS Services

E-commerce, or electronic commerce, is the buying and selling of goods or services electronically on the Internet. SMS notification plays an inevitable role in the e-commerce support system. It is primarily a method for communicating offers and other information to consumers.

Texting has become a significant part of many of our lives. The main benefits of text messaging in e-commerce are as follows:

• It is the quickest method of communication and is ideal for limited-time bulk SMS messages like flash sales or event-related promotions.

• Compared to email, the SMS engagement rate, SMS open rate, and response rate are high. As per various statistical reports, around 95% of texts will be read within 3 minutes of being sent, and the average response time for a text is 90 seconds.

• Text messages are personal, make customers feel special, and provide instant support. This reduces customer service needs.

• SMS marketing is cheaper than other traditional types of marketing

• SMS allows e-commerce to connect with a broader target group immediately, which helps increase the conversion rate.

• SMS uses mobile networks rather than data packs or internet connections, making it possible for anyone to receive SMS anytime, anywhere.
  
  

In the e-commerce industry, SMS marketing is ideal for promotional, transactional, and OTP messages. The main use cases are as follows:

• Sending out coupons, special deals, and discount coupons is one main use case for SMS.

• The online store can share information about the new product launch and a clickable link for interested customers to act upon.

• Promote the sale via sending SMS about Clearance sales, special occasion sales, flash sales, etc

• Promote websites via SMS marketing.

• Sending Rewards to customers after they purchase a certain quantity.

• SMS helps the customer check the order status by sending information about, order confirmation, shipping status, and expected delivery, and if any instant delay happened.

• Authentication and verification of customers by sending OTP.

• Verification via OTP in the case of cash-on-delivery purchases reduces the product return.

• SMS is an easy way to reach your customers for feedback about recent shopping. This helps to improve your business by retaining existing customers by sending them a thank you note.

• The notification about abandoned carts can be sent through SMS and also encourages customers to purchase.
