Whether it’s two-factor authentication (2FA) or making dinner reservations, I’m noticing that I’m much more comfortable utilizing text messaging (SMS) than I was a few years ago. I don’t think I’m the only one… consumers and businesses alike are more than happy to send and receive text messages rather than be interrupted by phone calls. The latest statistics prove it:
- 15.2 million text messages are sent every minute worldwide
- 95% of text messages are read within 3 minutes of being sent
- 4.2 billion people send text messages worldwide
- 90 seconds is the average response time for text messages
- 75% of people prefer offers to be sent via text
The challenge, though, is managing all those communications at a business level. That’s where text messaging platforms come into play.
Textmagic
With platforms like Textmagic, a business can send notifications, alerts, reminders, confirmations, and SMS Marketing campaigns from a single user interface.
