Comments on: Is All Mobile Marketing SPAM? http://mobilemarketingprofits.com/205/is-all-mobile-marketing-spam/ Mobile marketing training and tools for business and mobile marketing entrepreneurs Wed, 16 May 2012 12:09:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Kim Dushinski http://mobilemarketingprofits.com/205/is-all-mobile-marketing-spam/comment-page-1/#comment-1015 Kim Dushinski Mon, 21 Jul 2008 12:28:43 +0000 http://mobilemarketingprofits.com/?p=205#comment-1015 @Kathryn As long as your customers know that when they make a booking that they will also be getting offers and promotions, etc, that is great. @Annaliza When Bluetooth marketing is done correctly (when it is 100% customer initiated and no unexpected initial message asking if they want to participate is sent to everyone walking by)it is not spam. I do think that when that initial query asking all passersby if they want to receive information via Bluetooth is sent out without permission that it is spam. It is a controversial point around Bluetooth, but I stand firm in my thinking. @Kathryn

When the client makes a booking we input their mobile number into our system and keep in contact with them via text. Its great for sending out offers and promotions, thank you notes and also just news updates on new activities etc. The company we use is www.txtlocal.co.uk. The service is easy to use and affordable.

It is great because I always have my phone so no worries about printing the coupon and leaving it on my printer. If I am not going by there during the coupon offer I delete it. (How green is that?) Plus if mobile marketing is less expensive than traditional direct marketing then in the end consumers win because prices can reflect this change. I wish more things were mobile.
