Mobile Phone SMS - The Growing Phenomenon

Even more important is the mass-market adoption of mobile phones is the ability to interact with consumers through them. This is being driven primarily by the convergence of enhanced device capabilities, improved network speeds and affordable / flat rate data plans. The iPhone is only the most obvious examples of this trend; however, BlackBerry, Google and many others are pushing the evolution of the market forward at breakneck speeds.

As the mobile phone market is rapidly emerging globally, so also is the need for a cost effective mobile phone. The need for cheap mobile phones and calling plans has increased just as much. People have accepted mobile phones to be a part of their daily lifestyle. An important feature of mobile phones is to provide users the ability of text messaging, commonly known as Short Message Service (SMS).

SMS (Short Message Service) messaging is the most ubiquitous means to reach consumers in the mobile channel. Almost everyone who has a mobile phone has the ability to send and receive a text message. Text messaging allows for messages of 160 characters to be sent through a variety of methods, including from one handset to another, from a PC to a handset and from a handset to a PC.

SMS Worldwide supports common short codes, which are phone numbers (commonly five or six characters) that allows consumers to respond to with a text message. The key in effective marketing via text messaging is in assuring that what is offered is something that the consumer can take action on. Examples can include: take a quiz, announce an event, enter a sweepstakes, and download a ringtone.

Sending SMS is a big trend now. With the type of consumer reach India enjoys, nearly 3 billion messages are being sent every year, and are growing. SMS marketing likewise has given companies a bigger platform to promote their products and service offerings. The values of such a marketing strategy are enormous and it encompasses many domains. It extends marketing communications beyond traditional media and allows marketer to reach audiences wherever and whenever they are and to take action as soon as they see an advertisement. Mobile SMS marketing can offer consumers value with branded utility through offering access to content and services directly from their mobile phone and provides immediate, granular information about response to campaign.
