It’s no secret that consumers (and all of us) live on our smartphones. Every way we can reach customers via mobile is a win. We’re excited to announce the release of SMS Text Messages into our feedback request options.
Our goal is to help you get as many of your customers into the feedback and review process. Text messages are opened at a 98% rate – more than twice the open rate of email requests on our platform (email is typically 40%-50% open rate). The combination of a higher open rate and mobile-friendliness will lead to more feedback, data, and reviews for your business or clients.
Our SMS feature allows you to send plain text message requests to customers, and text message requests with an image if you really want to stand out. Below is how the SMS Setting screen looks to create and customize your text messages.
Our system uses SMS “credits” with each text message being 1 credit and each photo sent as 1 credit. Depending on the plan you select (learn about those below) you choose how you will use your SMS credits. A plain text message will deduct just 1 credit from your account and a text message with a photo will deduct 2 credits.
Available On Pro Plan And Up
SMS requests are available on Pro Plan and up. As a new customer, you can select a plan to cover the volume of requests you wish to send via text/SMS.
