Offer search subscriptions to receive information to your customers, prospects & visitors
- An SMS search subscription makes it possible to send new information about a flat search, a vehicle search, a job search or an online auction in a personalised and automated way. The subscriber selects their own individual search criteria. The system then sends the relevant SMS messages directly to their mobile phone.
- In addition, as the operator of an online shop, you can give your visitors the option of receiving a message when a certain product is available for order. This will help you to avoid loss of revenue and increase sales. Another advantage of the SMS search subscription: you do not need a separate app or software for this. Last but not least – text messages can be easily received on any mobile phone even without WiFi.
