SMS-enabling your business phone numbers will lead to more conversations, more closed deals, and more happy customers.
When a phone number is SMS-enabled, this simply means it can field both phone calls AND text messages (inbound and outbound). Two forms of outreach from one phone number.
64% of consumers think businesses should communicate through texting more often.
More than half of consumers have expressed their preference for SMS - what's holding you back from joining them on the channel of their choice? In doing so, you're existing where your customers do and creating a positive customer experience in the process.
Think about this - When you're interacting with prospects, those who are sent texts typically become customers at a rate 40% higher than those who are not sent any! 40% simply by enabling text functionality - it's like free money.
