Integration

How important is to integrate your mobile marketing campaign with your social and marketing channels?

Your campaign needs to be clear, to the point, with a powerful message, in order to make it easy for every single person to understand it.

For example, when you are planning to launch an SMS campaign, you could use an embedded Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) link into your SMS text messages, in order to drive traffic to your website, or your landing page. Moreover, if you need to drive traffic to your mobile app a good suggestion would be to use push notifications, so as to empower the main message within your SMS. Moreover, you can always boost even more your campaign by creating video or targeted social ads, so as to reach your audience and expand your reach.

Of course, it goes without saying that regular and full testing is always required in order to ensure that everything works as it supposed to.
