Why Include SMS In Restaurant Marketing Plan?

High Response Rates

SMS messages boast an impressive open rate of approximately 98%, with most texts read within minutes of receipt. This contrasts sharply with email open rates, which hover around 20%. The immediacy of SMS ensures that your marketing messages reach customers effectively.

Enhanced Customer Engagement

SMS marketing fosters direct communication with customers, leading to higher engagement rates. Text messages often result in quicker responses and can be personalized to enhance customer relationships. This two-way communication allows restaurants to build loyalty and encourage repeat visits

Timely Promotions

Restaurants can send timely messages about special offers, menu changes, or events, which can drive immediate customer action. This capability is particularly useful for promoting limited-time offers or filling tables during slow periods

Less Competitive Channel

The SMS marketing landscape is less crowded than email or social media, allowing restaurants to stand out more easily. Customers are more likely to notice and engage with a text message than with an email lost in their inboxes
