Sure, you could email, put up billboards, or paper the neighborhood with fliers, but the reality is that nothing gets our attention quite like the notification dings on our phone. (When I say dings, I don\u2019t mean it literally. My phone has been on silent since 2012.)<gwmw style=\"display:none;\"><\/gwmw><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The extremely high open rate is proof that texting is, in fact, the most preferred channel of communication for everybody. Think about it, even with our friends, family or people we want easy access to, we use text messages on a daily basis to communicate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this video, Aaron Novella discusses how he was able to use Birdeye Messaging in real-time to increase communication and engagement while exceeding his client&#8217;s expectations.<gwmw style=\"display:none;\"><\/gwmw><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"birdeye-youtube-3vQ_mpXZcE0\" class=\"ytvideo-container\"><\/div>\n<script>\n  var youtube = document.getElementById(\"birdeye-youtube-3vQ_mpXZcE0\"); \n  var img = document.createElement(\"img\");\n  img.setAttribute(\"src\", \"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/3vQ_mpXZcE0\/maxresdefault.jpg\");\n  img.setAttribute(\"class\", \"be-yt-thumb\");\n  \n  var playIcon  = document.createElement(\"div\");\n  playIcon.setAttribute(\"class\",\"play-icon\"); \/\/to add play icon on top of the image\n\n  var playBtn  = document.createElement(\"div\");\n  playBtn.setAttribute(\"class\",\"play-btn\");\n  var iconWrapper  = document.createElement(\"i\");\n  iconWrapper.setAttribute(\"class\",\"icon-wrapper\");\n\n  var iconImage = document.createElement(\"img\");\n  iconImage.setAttribute(\"src\", \"https:\/\/cdn2.birdeye.com\/version2\/v3\/components\/video\/play-btn-transparent.svg\");\n\n  youtube.appendChild(img);\n  iconWrapper.appendChild(iconImage);\n  playBtn.appendChild(iconWrapper);\n  playIcon.appendChild(playBtn);\n  youtube.appendChild(playIcon);\n  \n  \/\/ Attach an onclick event to the YouTube Thumbnail\n  youtube.onclick = function() {\n \n    \/\/ Create an iFrame with autoplay set to true\n    var iframe = document.createElement(\"iframe\");\n    iframe.setAttribute(\"src\", \"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3vQ_mpXZcE0?rel=0&modestbranding=1&autohide=1&showinfo=0&controls=0&autoplay=1&border=0&wmode=opaque&enablejsapi=1\"); \n    var iframeWidth = document.querySelector('.ytvideo-container').clientWidth;\n    var iframeHeight = document.querySelector('.ytvideo-container').clientHeight;\n    iframe.setAttribute(\"style\", \"width:\"+ iframeWidth + \"px;height:\" + iframeHeight + \"px\");\n    iframe.setAttribute(\"allow\", \"autoplay\");\n\n    \/\/ Replace the YouTube thumbnail with YouTube HTML5 Player\n    this.parentNode.replaceChild(iframe, this);\n  }; \n<\/script>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\n  \"@context\": \"http:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"VideoObject\",\n  \"name\": \"Aaron Novello, Real Estate agent and coach at Keller Williams | Birdeye Customer Case Study\",\n  \"description\": \"Aaron Novello, Real Estate agent & coach at Keller Williams talks about how Birdeye Messaging has taken the communication between him and his clients to the next level.

Today, it is up to the business to meet the customer where they are. <a href=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/customer-messaging\/\">Text messaging marketing<\/a> is the most personal way to reach out to a customer. It is:<gwmw style=\"display:none;\"><\/gwmw><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Less intrusive: Your customers can check the message any time they want.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More flexible: A short message with gifs or a long text with info, whatever your need, you can communicate it via a text message. Text messages are also a channel that appeals to all ages. Teenagers, seniors, and everyone in between, texts have universal appeal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More convenient: Your message goes straight to their phone inbox. Unlike emails that get lost in spam, text messages are more easily accessible. You can be sure that the receiver will definitely open and read it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-type=\"re-block\" data-name=\"narrow_sendtextstocontacts_28514_banner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/mass-texting\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1647\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers.png\" data-clicktag=\"narrow_sendtextstocontacts_28514_banner\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers.png 1647w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers-300x26.png 300w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers-1024x89.png 1024w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers-768x67.png 768w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers-1536x133.png 1536w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers-810x70.png 810w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Send-text-messages-to-a-large-number-of-customers-1140x99.png 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1647px) 100vw, 1647px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"phone-calls\">Text messages vs phone calls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, we are always in the middle of something. Either stuck in a commute, in a meeting or enjoying some well-deserved downtime. This is why nobody wants to make or answer calls if they can help it. As a business owner, you should attempt to make communication with you as easy and stress-free as possible. Phone calls are considered disruptive and time-consuming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine you own a dental practice that is now changing work hours. If you were to call each one of your patients, it might go something like this. Your patient is in the middle of something when they get a call from an unknown number. Is it spam? They are unlikely to stop everything that they are doing just to answer a call from an unknown number. This means your vital piece of news isn\u2019t conveyed to all your patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phone calls are a drain on a business\u2019s time and resources as well. Maybe you can make 30 phone calls on a good day. It is still going to take you a few days or weeks to talk to all your contacts. But with mass text messages, you can send one single text blast to all your contacts. They get a notification and can look at the message whenever they have time to. This gets your message across effectively and also saves you a lot of time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"emails\">Text messages vs emails&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Emails are super professional. However, think about how much spam we get in our emails. This is why the average <a href=\"https:\/\/www.campaignmonitor.com\/resources\/guides\/email-marketing-benchmarks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">open rate for an email<\/a> is just 17.8%. When you compare that with the 98% of a text message, you see why text messages are so important for communication today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having said that, if you have some serious piece of news (change of address, change of leadership) sending an email alongside a text message is a good strategy. However, for the more informal and regular communication (promotional or seasonal deals), it\u2019s best to go with text messages, since they are more accessible and less intrusive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"chat\">Text messages vs chat&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While phone calls and emails are relatively old school, online chat is a new and effective way to reach your customers. There are different options within <a href=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/website-chat\/\">website chat<\/a> too \u2014 Livechat, Webchat, and Chatbots. Together, they are a comprehensive platform for your customers to reach you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, mass text messaging is a great way for you to reach your customers. It is important to keep channels of communication open, both ways.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Otherwise, your customers will be able to reach you but you will not be able to communicate with them easily en masse or in a group. We\u2019d recommend having both \u2014 chat and text messaging \u2014 to create a winning communication strategy.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-use\">What can I use mass text messages for? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few different ways that you can use mass text messaging. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Promote a sale or discount-<\/strong> Got a great deal that you want to tell your customers about? You can reach easily via text.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Get customer feedback-<\/strong> Want to know whether your customers are satisfied with your services? Send out a survey request that they can take on their smartphones. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Get more registrations on events- <\/strong>Are you hosting an event or workshop anytime soon? Promote it by sending a link where they can register. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Update your customers on news-<\/strong> Is your business changing its hours of operation in response to the COVID-19 pandemic? Make sure that your customers are aware. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"send-mass\">How to send out mass text messages?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While the idea of mass text messaging is appealing, it can also sound intimidating. But don&#8217;t worry. It\u2019s actually very simple. Using Birdeye\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/messaging\/\">Interactions<\/a> dashboard, you can send bulk messages to all your contacts with just a few clicks.&nbsp;<gwmw style=\"display:none;\"><\/gwmw><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dashboard also helps you create and manage your contacts easily.

You can integrate Birdeye with your existing customer relationship management platform or customer data to have all contacts stored in one place.
