How It Works

For each promotion you want to run, you’ll receive a unique code. Consumers simply send in the promotion code or keyword via a text message to a short 5 digit numeric code.

Text Marketing Example:

  1. You place an ad on the radio with a powerful call-to-action that goes something like this: “To receive this 20% off coupon, text [keyword] to 12345.”
  2. The prospect follows your simple instructions and sends you the text.
  3. Your promotion is immediately returned to the consumer’s mobile phone via a text message.
  4. The message is automatically stored on their phone and the consumer can use it at their convenience or within your designated expiration date.

Best of all, there is no charge to the consumer to use this service beyond any standard text messaging rates that may apply. Typically, mobile phone plans include text messaging for free.

Text messaging of promotion codes is available on most phones sold today. This marketing method is made even easier with VIP Savings!
