How does it work ?
Keyword SMS Campaign
It offers a unique and effortless online facility to run campaigns by simply determining basic competition parameters. Our SMS campaign application provides a great way for organisations to interact and build relationships with customers, whilst providing the foundation for building an 'opt-in' database of consumers with whom further marketing interaction can take place.
SMS competitions also compliment existing promotional channels. For example, competitions can be promoted via brochures, poster sites, food or drink packaging, TV and radio, or online media.
This application enables all types of organisations, including those in media and entertainment, fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), retail and the travel sector, to start deploying mobile services.
To enter a competition, the subscriber simply sends a SMS text message containing the answer to the question promoted, to a Premium Rated 5-digit shortcode. Our application has the option to generate an automatic response, which can be returned to the participant to confirm his/her entry.
Within this response, the customer can be encouraged to reply to opt-in to further marketing activity, or can be redirected to a website URL to register interest in receiving further information.
Viral SMS Campaign
Now you can run your own campaign/s that allows entrants to refer their friends!
In other words, in order for an entry to be valid the entrant has to submit the contact number of one of their friends.
The system will then automatically notify the friend that s/he too should enter the campaign. This not only increases the scope of your advertising but also improves your chances of getting multiple entries to your campaign!
Instant Winner SMS Campaign
Now you can run your own campaign/s that offers instant winners, and therefore instant prizes!
You could give away airtime for example, and have specific winning numbers, barcodes or keywords.
When an entrant sends in a SMS with the winning number/barcode/keyword the system will automatically scan the entire entry to pick it up, notify the winner and then send the airtime voucher.
This type of campaign increases your chances of receiving multiple entries, as people are excited by the fact that they do not need to wait for months before a winner is announced, and the prize delivered!
