Retail

More and more retailers are turning to the web to complement their High Street businesses - and for good reason. As on-line purchases continue to escalate and competition increases it’s important to exploit every sales channel that’s available.

And TxtOrder’s retail customers have discovered that the ‘mobile channel’ bridges the gap between the real world and the on-line world.

By including a text ‘call to action’ on their adverts in the press and on the radio or TV you can now collect your customer’s mobile phone numbers and their email addresses. What’s more, using the TxtOrder system means an email can be sent out immediately when a customer sends a text message. This email is designed to reinforce your offer and encourage your customer to click through to your web site or on-line store. Your customer can move straight from the email to your on-line shopping basket to make a purchase.

Not only does TxtOrder help drive traffic to your web site and increase sales but it also provides with you a new mobile marketing database. Using a simple ‘opt-in’ service you can now send your customers regular text messages to let them know about your special offers or news and events.

You can also use TxtOrder to drive customers to your High Street store. Use TxtOrder’s service to provide your customers with a simple code by text message that can be redeemed against purchases in store. Watch your footfall increase!

There are many ways that mobile services can be used to help boost your retail business - and you can rest assured that TxtOrder is at the forefront of developing new technology services including WAP and Bluetooth that will benefit you in the future too!
