When it comes to marketing and its campaigns for promotion
and strategies in engaging with the users of handsets so as to make them aware
of the services and items offered and to finally let these people purchase,
business managers usually associate SMS with these.
However, at the most recent times, companies are searching
for ways that can lessen their costs and expenses by which for these business
managers, online sms have played a greater role on this. If we deal with
business SMS, this has been said to have a great impact on the company whereby
this can assist in having more savings on costs.
What process is followed that can enable the company to have
a lesser cost on expenditures through making use of Email to SMS
gateway? What we have to do is to take a good look into and compare the
conventional ways in communicating like the use of letters and telephone to the
use of online sms.
When we send letter, this will take so much of our time and
is costly as well. There are associations for housing that send out reminder
letters for payment to the people renting the area who were behind in their
payments by which this is a good example. Truly we can save so much costs when
we use online sms since this will only cost around five p in comparison with
those costs on the printing, packing and other things needed to send out a
letter that will reach to around fifty
p.
As compared to those letters being sent, not only will there
be a cheaper cost involved when it comes to sending out online sms, but also
the response rate involved with this especially when sending this out to the
tenants is way quicker. The percentage
of people who will respond within a matter of two hours after receiving such online sms is around eighty four percent.
A maintenance fitter will be required to visit the area,
when there will be an issue about a leak in the water system. With an
appointment set, in three days time, such visit will happen. The expert who
will do the maintenance at the home of the tenant will have to reschedule for
the reason that, upon arrival, nobody was home.
But with the use of online sms to send out reminders on
meetings, this can reduce the number of no show of the tenants and thus,
greatly have a reduction in the costs of meetings that are missed. Based upon
the results of a research, this had revealed that through sending reminders on
appointments or meetings a day before it was scheduled can reduce around twenty
five percent of a no show of the people.
