There are 33 million couples in France, and over 70% of them celebrate Valentine's Day. That's 66 million potential gifts to give! An opportunity not to be missed for your boutique to delight these lovers. Your communication must therefore be effective. An SMS campaign will boost your sales and increase your online or in-store traffic. For this kind of campaign, SMS has proven to be more impactful and effective than email. An open rate of 90% for SMS, compared with an average of 20% for e-mail, which often ends up in the trash or in junk mail.

Valentine's campaign ideas

This event lends itself to many different formats. You can relaunch your recurring customers via an SMS campaign and push products similar to their last purchases. Propose gift ideas, gift sets or unmissable promotional offers. Advertise attractive prices and vary your messages! Of course, don't forget to personalize the sender and content of your message, so that the recipient perceives your message as a unique and personal proposition. A study shows that 58% of people are prepared to receive several marketing messages if the content is relevant and interesting. An SMS that helps people find the right gift for their loved one is bound to be considered relevant.
