CASE STUDY #1
When a chain of Ashley Furniture Homestores in the Carolinas wanted to bolster sales during a slow period in the summer, they sent 6,000 text message coupons to customers who had opted in to receive information about special offers. For every $1 they spent in executing the text message campaign, they generated $122 in revenue.

Overall, 53 percent of those engaging with free (standard rate) short codes, such as those used by brands in marketing, are sent by texters 35 and older. |
