Research shows that 98% of text messages are read! People open and read text messages more than emails and social media messages combined — showing how much a text is preferred and effective. And with over 5 billion subscribers worldwide, text messaging is the most widely used communication channel in the world.
Zooming in to Uganda, digital reports show that of all mobile phone owners in the country, only 30% own smart phones. And similar to the prior stats, they also show that in Uganda, 98% of text messages are read within 15 minutes of being sent. This is higher than other promotional methods like Social Media Ads, WhatsApp, TV and Radio adverts.
Bulk messaging services let you easily send messages to lots of people at once, something regular texting apps can't handle. They come with tools for scheduling and tracking messages, drip campaigns and message branding, and many more features.
This way, you can reach everyone quickly, whether it's for big news or special deals, keeping your audience engaged and informed without a hassle.
