Good day my friends! I’d like to post here real success stories that are related to SMS marketing and our software.These case studies are real.   They are excellent for generating or improving SMS marketing ideas for your business.

Success Story #1 – Dunkin Donuts

A two month mobile interactive ad campaign in Italy has resulted in a 9% increase in sales for Dunkin Donuts, according to the two companies that created it.
As a result of an SMS-based marketing campaign, customers were able to get coupons for Dunkin Donuts goods by using their mobile handsets to respond to advertisements displayed on store notice boards, billboards and on the radio.
By sending a short message to the published numbers, users receive an immediate reply featuring a free gift coupon or special offer exchangeable at local outlets.
Sales were reportedly up 9% within the first three weeks of the campaign. By enticing consumers to request special offers, Dunkin Donuts ensures that they achieve a great consumer push without running the risk of breaking down the client relationship by contributing to the wealth of ‘spam’. SMS is the perfect way to tap into a vast market of mobile phone users in an environment plagued by a lack of standardization and interconnections.
By ensuring that the power of the SMS medium is put to good use in an ethical way and one which doesn’t encroach upon users’ privacy is something which was key to the success of campaigns such as this one with Dunkin Donuts.
And Dunkin Donuts’ Italian franchisee GianLuigi Contin says that the SMS marketing solution has been a positive brand-building experience: “We are directly reaching our targets with a message they can understand. Cellular coupons are not cute promotions, rather they are serious marketing tools that not only extend the brand but are also directed towards the people we want to reach.”

Stealing corporate data...

Economically challenged employees are likely to abandon their ethics in pursuit of new jobs by stealing corporate data, according to a survey from security firm Cyber-Ark. Now it’s time to protect your company from data loss!

Corporations

“…more than 100 million data records of U.S. residents have been exposed due to security breaches every year.”

It’s a mobile, connected world – and companies are paying the price for not monitoring and controlling electronic communications as they exit the safety of the company. While most organizations scan inbound email for unsolicited or dangerous content, most fail to check their outgoing email, IM and other Internet-based communications, essentially allowing the unauthorized or unintentional transfer of sensitive information outside of the organization.
