What Makes SMS Unstoppable
It’s Personal
Texts live where your customers talk to their friends. Used right, SMS feels like a helpful heads-up. Not a billboard in your pocket.
Use it to:
• Drop exclusive offers
• Fill empty tables fast
• Nudge loyalty perks
It’s Immediate
No filters. No scrolling. No delays.
SMS is the go-to for messaging. Especially when timing = revenue.
Think:
“Hey, we had cancellations tonight. 20% off if you can make it.”
That’s not spam. That’s smart.
It Moves People
Text campaigns are short, clear, and action-driven.
One message = one decision. Tap, visit, reply. That’s it.
With Kore.co’s automation tools, they still feel 1:1. Eeven at scale.
When SMS Hits Hardest
Texting isn’t just for confirmations. Use it where urgency meets value:
• Post-purchase follow-ups
• Review requests (aka local SEO fuel)
• Flash sales & last-minute promos
• Event reminders
• Cart nudges
• Loyalty rewards & redemptions
Layer SMS across your customer journey, and it becomes your highest-converting channel. Period.
Staying Compliant (and Chill)
Don’t text people out of nowhere. That’s how you get blocked... or worse.
Here’s what keeps you legal and likeable:
• Clear opt-in
• Easy opt-out
• Tell them what to expect
Kore.co handles the fine print (and the workflows) for you.
