January 2012 – Small businesses in a variety of industries find that text marketing widens their customer base and increases sales, all without overstretching their limited marketing budgets. To educate more small business owners about this rapidly evolving area of marketing, TellMyCell put together the following list of 5 small businesses that text marketing can help.

Bars, Lounges and Nightclubs – Whether it’s a neighborhood bar or a trendy nightclub, mass texting can help bring in bodies. Nightly drink specials, live bands appearing on stage and VIP access to special events are just a few of the messages that the owner of a bar or club could send out. TellMyCell has been helping those in the nightlife industry do just that for more than six years now.

Restaurants – As in the nightlife industry, text marketing can help bring in restaurant patrons as well. For example, restaurant owners use http://www.tellmycell.com to entice diners to visit on slow days of the week. Research shows that 95 percent of text messages are opened within minutes of receipt. Around mid-morning, restaurant owners simply text the day’s specials to their list of regulars and wait for the tables to fill.

Boutiques – Storeowners often use mass texting to announce special sales or new shipments of merchandise. Text messages with coupons or announcing contests and giveaways also work well in the retail segment.

Financial Advisors – Since financial and market information is time sensitive, this particular type of small business uses mass texting to keep clients informed. Sending daily trading tips, market summaries and links to full reports are just a few of the ways financial advisors use TellMyCell to serve their client base.

Apartment Complexes – Property managers can send one text message to an entire community when issues arise, such as a crime alert or a notice of bulk-trash removal. Many also use text marketing to send rent reminders and overdue notices.

Small business owners in these industries and others can see examples of text messages sent through TellMyCell by using the SMS codes found on the “How Businesses Use Text Message Marketing” page at http://www.tellmycell.com. The website also has a comprehensive FAQ page to help those new to mass texting better understand how it can work for them.
