Five-quick-reasons-why-you-should-try-Delivery-SMS

Delivery SMS for Linnworks allows you to automatically notify your customers when their order ships via SMS text message, including tracking information where it’s available.

With key retail opportunities approaching, including Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Singles Day (in China), Halloween, and Christmas, and with competition from Amazon and leading High Street brands, the immediacy of delivery notification reaching the customer’s phone (Even if they don’t have a smartphone) adds gratification, making a better impression. This leads to repeat sales and recommendation, by giving the impression you have shipped faster than your competitors.

If you are a Linnworks user, here are five quick reasons why you should use Delivery SMS:

1. Cost- Effective

For only 5p per message, Eagle Delivery SMS gives you an effective, universal way to communicate with your customer base. You can top up from as little as 500 credits for only £21, a small investment for the improved communication and customer satisfaction.

2. Customers don’t have to pay to receive their notifications, or have a Smartphone

In a world where you expect everyone to have smartphones, there is still a small percentage of people who don’t use them devices for various reasons; Some may temporarily have a loan phone, or a cheap replacement after breakage, for example. Others may not have a large data allowance, and may keep their data off and use Wi-Fito receive push email notifications cheaply, but sporadically. Some are just suspicious about Smartphones with many modern scare stories about technology, etc. With Delivery SMS, you can reach customers no matter HOW basic their phone is, and even when their mobile data allowance has run out. They immediately know that their order has been dispatched, even if they have a landline – BT will call them and read the SMS!!

You can choose all of your sub sources or select specific ones to run a campaign for, and they’re all available direct from your Linnworks account. You can then customise your message, starting with our ready-made examples, and turning those into your very own custom message templates.
