Imagine receiving personalized product recommendations or exclusive discounts on your birthday from your favorite retailer. It would make you feel special, right? It may also prompt you to buy more from that brand.
Therein lies the power of personalized marketing. Almost two-thirds of American consumers value experiences over a business’s products or services. Individualized experiences also deepen trust, improve customer retention, and entice 90% of shoppers to spend more money.
The bottom line is that personalization is paramount. But it doesn’t have to be daunting! With marketing automation and SMS campaigns, brands can send highly personalized content that customers will love.
Personalization and automation go hand-in-hand
Marketing automation refers to software platforms that handle repetitive tasks without human intervention, such as sending emails and scheduling social media posts.
Automation platforms like Salesmanago can also streamline data analytics processes by capturing and analyzing huge amounts of customer data in seconds. Marketers can then use these insights to craft personalized content that resonates deeply with audiences.
SMS is a dominant player in personalized marketing
Amid the rise of new automation technology, one thing remains clear: SMS is still a marketing campaign powerhouse. With an impressive 98% open rate compared to email’s 22.7% and 60% of customers reading texts within one to five minutes of receipt, SMS can confidently pick up the slack of other marketing channels, ensuring your marketing efforts are effective and impactful.
Additionally, customers across different demographics prefer SMS over other forms of communication:
- Two-thirds of Gen Z consumers favor text over email during e-commerce interactions
- Over half of Middle East customers prefer SMS over email
SMS is an effective and affordable way to engage more customers worldwide.
