In one of our recent <a href=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/au\/webinars\/\">webinars<\/a>, we looked at how online reviews can build trust in your brand. What remains vastly overlooked, however, is how the simple and affordable text message can help you cultivate loyalty and customer satisfaction faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Customer support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most frustrating customer experiences is getting immediate help from a business support team. How many times have waited through annoying tele-prompts before you could speak to a human being? Even then, it may take several days, calls or departments handling your query before it can be resolved.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s talk about how SMS can make resolving support queries easier and faster.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2020, independent telecommunications business <a href=\"\/au\/case-studies\/netsuite-sms-integration-cuts-customer-support-time-half\/\">Port Networks<\/a> were looking for another channel to help customers with technical queries. Agents were finding themselves inundated with queries over the phone and often required customers to call back multiple times which was inconvenient.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founder Hugh Bethell noted an increasing interest in SMS chat (two-way text conversations between an agent and customer) among the younger generations as a communication solution.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-conversation-sms.jpeg\" alt=\"two-way customer support conversation via SMS\" class=\"wp-image-22461\" width=\"512\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-conversation-sms.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-conversation-sms-300x260.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-conversation-sms-768x665.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only was SMS universal, easy to access and familiar to most; it allowed customers to reply at their own pace. It also allowed agents to field multiple queries at once.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, customer support queries were resolved much faster than when they were communicated via phone or email. In fact, support queues and resolution times were <a href=\"\/au\/case-studies\/netsuite-sms-integration-cuts-customer-support-time-half\/\">cut by a<\/a> whopping 50% resulting in much happier and more loyal customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-background-color has-background\"><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> Our <a href=\"\/au\/integrations\/sms-for-netsuite\/\">NetSuite integration<\/a> is very simple and easy to plug in. If you have existing software that could benefit from a text messaging service, <a href=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/au\/contact\/\">speak to one of our experts<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Helpful reminders and alerts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Be customer-centric. Get on the front foot with customers by precipitating what products and services they\u2019ll need before they need them.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about life today \u2013 it\u2019s only getting busier with longer working hours and greater pressures to perform. Many brands are trying to alleviate these stresses by prompting customers with helpful reminders and alerts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Hair salons reminding customers about product replacement.<\/strong> Hi there! Your hair conditioner is about to run out. To order a new one\u2026<\/li><li><strong>Medical clinics confirming appointments.<\/strong> Your booking has been confirmed for September 8<sup>th<\/sup> at 2.30 PM.<\/li><li><strong>Restaurants reminding you about an upcoming reservation.<\/strong> REMINDER: You have an early-bird dinner booking with us at 6.30 PM. Please be prompt on your arrival.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f5f5f5\"><strong>RECOMMENDED:<\/strong> Save yourself time and grab our <a href=\"\/au\/sms-templates\/\">ready-to-use SMS templates<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also use proactive alerts to forewarn clientele about outages or issues with your business in the near future. Port Networks started using SMS to prepare customers for planned outages which significantly reduced their support queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-sms-example.jpeg\" alt=\"customer support SMS example\" class=\"wp-image-22462\" width=\"512\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-sms-example.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-sms-example-300x260.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/customer-support-sms-example-768x665.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Using SMS alerts and reminders will also benefit your business. For example, no-shows to service businesses cost a significant amount of resources, time and money. Automating SMS reminders and alerts can drastically reduce no-shows and ensure consistent profit goes back into your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Customer feedback<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When we talked to the experts on trust, we touched on how customer feedback can positively impact loyalty. When new customers are doing research on a quality product with multiple offerings, they will look to customer feedback first.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Establishing a good cadence of customer feedback is important to build up reputation and trust in what you offer. However, one of the hardest facets to face in customer feedback is <em>acquiring <\/em>this feedback.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/feedback-uE.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11066\" width=\"387\" height=\"80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/feedback-uE.jpg 740w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/feedback-uE-300x62.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 387px) 100vw, 387px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After an order arrives from a food delivery app, do you notice that you will often be asked to review the restaurant half an hour later? As we learned in our webinar on trust, you\u2019re being asked during your \u2018<em>happiest<\/em>\u2019 brand moment for feedback.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This might be after someone has eaten their food or opened your package or is about to pay for your services. At their happiest, customers are more likely to make the effort to gush about your product and customer service.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every \u2018happy\u2019 moment is different \u2013 and there may be more than one!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why not use push notifications then?<em> <\/em>Not every business has an app to send push notifications on, and your customers may have muted notifications. This is where text can provide a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"513\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/review-request-sms-example.jpeg\" alt=\"Request to review massage text message\" class=\"wp-image-22463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/review-request-sms-example.jpeg 513w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/review-request-sms-example-300x260.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 513px) 100vw, 513px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding the right time to grab your customer is only half the game. Text messages are often used in situations that demand immediate attention. If you send a review request via email, they might only see it two days or a week later \u2013 well past their \u2018happy\u2019 moment. You want to get their immediate attention and trigger a fast response.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-background-color has-background\"><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> Watch our interactive webinar with government engagement specialists Bang the Table to see <a href=\"\/au\/blog\/sms-community-engagement\/\">SMS-driven feedback in action<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Digital security<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With increasing cyberattacks, many businesses and brands are taking extra steps to protect their data. This is called data trust. If a customer knows you\u2019re looking after them, they are far less likely to go with another provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A very popular way of doing this is with multi-factor authentication.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/au\/blog\/two-factor-authentication\/\">Multi or two-factor authentication<\/a> (aka 2FA) simply adds an extra step when logging in that compels a user to confirm their identity in another way. 2FA often, but not always, rely on phone numbers and SMS to do this by sending out a one-time password or code when you log in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"235\" src=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/2FA.png\" alt=\"Phone with a two factor authentication message in the screen confirming a one-time security code.\" class=\"wp-image-11068\"\/><figcaption>Example of 2FA<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As mobile phones are often tied to a single individual, this is a reliable and easy way for customers to confirm their identity when logging in. This can be used in many other ways such as confirming password resets and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Loyalty promotions and referral networks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the easiest ways to build confidence is by reinforcing customer retention with current advocates. As we stated earlier, loyal customers are much more likely to encourage friends and family to buy too. Think about all of the brands you like \u2013 how many of them have you shared with your community? According to Nielsen, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nielsen.com\/us\/en\/insights\/report\/2012\/global-trust-in-advertising-and-brand-messages-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">92% of people trust recommendations<\/a> from their family and friends over other channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many businesses already benefit from valuable VIP and loyalty programs that induce strong loyalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, reward loyal or VIP customers with something you know they\u2019ll appreciate. Makeup brands could offer a holy grail product, fashion brands could offer a limited-edition shirt, and sports brands could offer a special experience. It really depends on what your customers will find special, and what you can afford!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"513\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/loyalty-offer-sms-example.jpeg\" alt=\"thank you gift for loyal customers via sms\" class=\"wp-image-22464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/loyalty-offer-sms-example.jpeg 513w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/loyalty-offer-sms-example-300x260.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 513px) 100vw, 513px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After they\u2019ve received their gifts, ask loyal fans to share a special referral link with their friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"513\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/loyalty-referral-sms-message.jpeg\" alt=\"referral code for loyal customer via SMS\" class=\"wp-image-22465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/loyalty-referral-sms-message.jpeg 513w, https:\/\/messagemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/loyalty-referral-sms-message-300x260.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 513px) 100vw, 513px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>There are numerous ways to build promotional text campaigns that tie into referral or loyalty marketing campaigns. For example, you might send out a text campaign encouraging current customers to join your VIP club by encouraging them to bring five friends on board. Get creative!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final thoughts, further reading<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re not done yet!
