Here are some of the reasons SlickText customers switch to SimpleTexting.
More Cost-Effective
Cost isn’t everything, but did you know you can save more than $18K* a year using SimpleTexting? The best part is you still take advantage of the same–and even more–features. It’s a no brainer.*Based on SimpleTexting’s 50K credits, annual plan, and TextMagic’s advertised rate of $0.04 per message.
Send MMS
MMS allows you to send images, videos, audio, and GIFs. Why should you want to send MMS?MMS campaigns have a 20% higher opt-in rate than SMS campaigns, and MMS messages are 8x more likely to be shared on social media. Pics and gifs are much more engaging than plain old text, so it’s essential to choose a platform that allows you to send them.
More Phone Number Options
SimpleTexting offers different phone number options. For example, you can use an industry-specific shared short code for a short, easy-to-remember number that is ideal for SMS marketing. What’s even better is that they don’t involve any setup or recurring costs–you only pay for credits to send texts.
