Afterpay Day is an exciting time for retailers. It’s a day when consumers are ready to make purchases and take advantage of sales. To make the most of this opportunity, you need to be proactive and creative. Here are five tips for retailers to help you take advantage of Afterpay Day:

SMS is a proven marketing tool that allows you to send targeted and personalised messages to boost the ROI on your campaigns.
Create urgency.
Campaigning around specific dates like Afterpay Day allows you to create a sense of urgency in your customers, increasing their likelihood to act.
Help to build FOMO among your audience by gently reminding them of promotion end dates.
Consider your messaging options to ensure your customers receive your messages in the timeliest way.
Personalise communication.

Follow up after purchase.
Your relationship with your customers doesn’t end at the point of purchase, remember, existing customers are much more likely to buy from you than new ones. Build on your successful sales by following up with customers and making sure they’re happy with their experience.
Use SMS to reach them directly, seek their feedback, and incentivise them to shop with you again.
