EZ Texting – Setting the standard for business texting platforms with world-class SMS marketing software

The Silicon Review

As more brands look to target customers on the move, SMS is becoming an increasingly essential part of effective multi-channel marketing. However, with few digital marketing agencies featuring SMS as a core offering, their clients are potentially missing out on communications with customers and increased ROI. All channels must work well together within the marketing mix, and SMS is no exception. SMS is a great standalone channel. However, it also can enhance and support other marketing mediums, such as social media and email. As well as being great on its own, SMS can also function to strengthen and support other popular mediums among consumers, such as social media and email. When businesses think of multi-channel marketing strategies, SMS forms an integral part of it.
