How to personalize your SMS ?
The variable field (direct mail)
This is the basis of the personalized message. Include variables in your SMS ($variables at smsmode©), which will be replaced by the recipient's name when the message is sent. Using the recipient's first name in the message creates a more intimate and engaging approach.
Database segmentation
Segment your contact base according to criteria such as purchasing habits, geographical location, or specific preferences. This enables you to send targeted offers that meet individual needs with precision and boost your ROI.
Dynamic information
Use information or events linked to your customer to trigger messages. This could be product recommendations based on previous sales, personalized reminders for special events (birthdays, limited promotions, etc.) or even follow-up messages after a shopping cart abandonment.
The personalized Sender ID
Customize the sender of your message. This technique allows you to display, for example, your brand name as the sender of the message, so that people can identify you directly. The recipient will then receive a text displaying the chosen name (company name, brand, etc.) instead of a standard mobile number or short code.
