Mobile marketing is probably the fastest growing tool in the marketer’s armoury at the current time. It is quick and easy to implement, inexpensive to set up and operate and works just great for all kinds of companies and organisations.
Because it sends your marketing message straight to someone’s mobile phone it grabs their attention and open rates of up to 98% are common. Compare that to the 22% open rate of email marketing.
This immediacy coupled with the apparent limitation of having to restrict messages to 160 characters makes mobile marketing ideal for delivering very specific calls to action.
