    Retail SMS FAQs

    Still have questions about using SMS? Check out the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.

    Contact Us
    How do retailers use SMS?

    Retailers can use SMS in multiple ways. A common use is sending messages to loyal customers to let them know about promotions or special events. Another option is to send customers texts about new additions to your inventory. For example, your store can send texts to let people know about the latest record or book releases or the next sneaker drop.

    How much does SMS marketing for retail cost?

    SMS marketing for retail is cost-effective. Your store can pay a flat monthly fee, which gives you a certain number of text messages per month. If you go over the allotted number of messages, you pay a small fee for each additional message sent. CompleteSMS offers several pricing schemes based on the number of messages you send per month and the number of dedicated phone numbers.

    Compared to traditional ads and flyers, SMS will reach the people that you know want to hear from you.

    Who should I send retail text messages to?

    Examples of customers who might want to get text messages from you include frequent shoppers or members of your store’s loyalty club, people who want to get access to discounts and deals, and customers who haven’t visited your store in a while. SMS marketing requires and opt-in procedure, meaning your store should only message people who have agreed to receive your texts. 

    How can I integrate CompleteSMS with my retail CRM?

    It’s easy to integrate our SMS solution with your existing retail CRM. Our SMS gateway application programming interface (API) includes CRM integration capabilities with no hardware required. You can upload distribution lists and combine our software with your existing platforms with ease.

    Why use SMS communication for my retail store?

    SMS communication offers multiple benefits to retailers. People are much more likely to read and respond to text messages than other communication methods, such as emails. When a person gets a text, they tend to read it instantly. Your store can expand its reach and the effectiveness of its marketing by adopting SMS.

    Texting is also cost-effective. With CompleteSMS, a flat monthly fee gets you a certain number of texts and access to at least one dedicated phone number. Texting also offers a high return on investment. Since people will likely react to your texts, your store can see increased sales and revenue, as few people will turn down a special offer or discount code.
