How to Build a Large Database of Customers
To be successful with text marketing, it starts by effectively building a large database of customers that want to receive texts. We have multiple ways to ensure you build a strong database of customers.
Loyalty Kiosk
Fast & Easy Sign-up
With the TL Connects LTE-enabled custom loyalty kiosk you’ll increase your sign-ups as much as 10x. The kiosk will be placed at your point-of-sale, hostess station, or bring one to an event. Track Your Offers With the kiosk, you can now track all your offers. When sending out a text message customers will be asked to redeem at kiosk and once they redeem they will receive a time stamp and dated text. You can also promote keywords on Facebook, Instagram, and others through other marketing with a unique keyword that activates and offer for your customer to redeem at the kiosk.
Text Marketing
Claim a keyword and market it online using your website, social media sites, in-store print materials or any other preferred advertisement methods. Use unique keywords to track the effectiveness of your text marketing campaigns along with your other forms of marketing to target customers.Advertise Online with Neighborhood Deals
Neighborhood Deals is a curated database of millions of our subscribers looking for deals in their neighborhoods. We promote your business at no charge which not only helps you drive in new customers, but it also helps you build your database so you can turn them into repeat customers.
Increase your Target Audience with a TL Alert
Now you can easily target people in your area that are not current subscribers in your database. This opens up a much larger audience whom you can text an offer to and promote your business informing people who live and work in your neighborhood about great offers, new products, announcements or general information about your business.
