Texting to Succeed or How to Make $10,000 a Month Sending SMS

According to 2013 statistics, there are over 320 million active mobile subscriptions in the US. This means more than the actual population. People are using these devices to control and organize all the aspects of their lives, from planning their time to checking the weather forecast, socializing with friends, solving work related problems, playing games or paying bills.

Many of these activities involve sending and receiving SMS messages, so how about you focus your attempts to make money on this communication method and start your own SMS based business? You could send thousands of messages a day and get paid for it.

Bulk SMS as a Business Opportunity

It may sound confusing and difficult, simply because you have not done it before and you have no idea where to begin from, so let’s start by clarifying a few aspects.

SMS comes from Short Message Service and refers to, as you probably know, the short text messages mobile users send and receive every day. But there is another alternative to typing messages on your cell phone and scrolling your contacts list when you wish to send them to several people.

It is called bulk SMS and involves using the internet to send text messages to several contacts at the same time. The same message can be sent to thousands of people, and without even having to deal with the mobile communications operators.

There are several advantages to sending bulk SMS, such as:

• Low rates: while telecommunication service providers charge you differently for sending SMS, depending on the network, bulk SMS are delivered at the same rate, lower than that practiced by the telecommunication service providers, no matter the destination.

• The same message can be sent to even millions of contacts in just a couple of minutes. All it takes is uploading the contacts list and writing the message. With a single click, the message can be sent to as many contacts as you wish.

• Delivery can be scheduled, so there are no time or presence constraints.

How to Make Money from Bulk SMS

Of course, before making money with bulk SMS, you need some great ideas. Here are the most viable, the ones that are easier to implement:

1. Marketing other businesses ;

2. Sending notifications to bank clients;

3. Organizing contests with a symbolic participation fee and prizes obtained from various sponsors;

4. Sending text messages with the horoscope for the day, in exchange for a small subscription fee.

5. Sending daily news briefs, sports results and the weather forecast;

6. Sending messages with the winning lottery numbers;

7. Sending warnings or notifications on behalf of public service providers, like electricity, water or gas supply companies;

8. Sending invitations or announcements on behalf of local NGOs, Foundations, Associations, and even public institutions;

9. Sending notifications about the jobs available or qualification classes being organized on behalf of local employment agencies;

10. Sending last minute offers, booking information, flight schedule and details on various packages on behalf of travel agencies;

11. Sending booking confirmations and seasonal promotions details on behalf of hotels;

12. Sending motivational messages to the public on behalf of various candidates during the elections;

13. Sending information about classes organized, exams and other events on behalf of schools and colleges;

14. Sending notifications about the newest software updates, threats and the like on behalf of IT companies;

15. Sending the menu to restaurant and catering services customers;

16. Giving vouchers and discount codes for various products or services;

17. Sending motivational messages to therapy groups members;

18. Sending subscription renewal reminders on behalf of various clubs, associations or organizations.

19. Sending delivery announcements for courier companies, etc.

If you consider details carefully, every business out there, no matter what products or services it promotes, could use your bulk SMS service. The demand in this market niche is huge, and the competition is still low.

This is one of the few business ideas that require low initial investments, no specialized knowledge and limited time and effort investments. With just a couple of clicks and a little planning, you can make thousands of people happy and fill your pockets with thousands of dollars every month.

In the big cities, bulk SMS service providers make even millions of dollars. You may not have their luck or skills, but there is literally nothing preventing you from making at least $10,000 a month, without

sacrificing the time you should spend with your family and the energy you should invest in other projects.

How to Start Making Money from Launching a Free SMS Service

Mobile marketing has evolved to a great extent in recent years, and today there are numerous successful services that make a lot of money by sending useful information and promoting businesses through text message. The good news is, nowadays, it will be easy for you to do the same.

Building Your New SMS Service

There are many services you can use in order to launch an SMS service, but the question that many people ask is what type of information and content can you share with the people in your subscription list to make sure they will stay interested?

Here are a few ideas that may help you:

• Informational alerts always seem to do the trick. People love hearing about social, political, weather or sports related news on their mobile phones or even checking their horoscopes.

• Make your subscribers laugh: jokes, funny SMS greetings and more can also be a great way to keep everyone interested.

• Finally, if you want to promote specific businesses or topics, it might be a great idea to send short alerts whenever something important happens in that particular niche.

Do You Have to Be Qualified as an “Expert”?

You may wonder whether you need to be an actual expert to be “qualified” to send information news, jokes and horoscopes to people through SMS. The short and simple answer is: no. Literally anyone can become successful with an SMS service, and there are a few good reasons why.

First of all, the content just has to be simple, short and catch the attention of regular people. All you need for that is a little creativity and a minimal amount of information, so it’s not really rocket science.

Also, people don’t generally do any research on those in charge of setting up an SMS service, they are just interested in whether or not the messages themselves can be of any use.

If you have an interesting hobby or passion, you can easily set up an SMS service to share the knowledge you’ve gained in that particular field with others, and thus earn money from what you are truly passionate about.

Where Does the Money Come from?

When it comes to making money with an SMS service, the process is basically the same as with email marketing and every type of affiliate marketing method known to be successful:

• As shown above, you need the service itself and the content required for attracting people and building your list of subscribers.

• You need to join an SMS/mobile marketing affiliate program. These are generally easy to find online, you can select what you wish to promote, and in some cases, you will even be provided with an interface through which you can send your text messages at lower bulk prices.

• You can integrate promotional content, ads and information about these businesses alongside the routine SMS messages you send to all your subscribers.

• Using targeted methods to promote your SMS service only to people who would genuinely be interested in it, you will then be able to make money from commissions provided by the businesses you are promoting and attract more and more people to join your subscription list.

What’s best about this method is not only that it requires very little time and effort, but the payouts provided by companies looking to promote their services and products through SMS affiliate marketing can reach values of up to 25% - not at all bad if you’re just starting out with mobile marketing.

Find Out How To Put Mobile Marketing To Work For Your Business And Your Products Or Services To Become Truly Profitable

Even though there are many successful businesses that rely heavily on mobile marketing, introducing such a strategy and using it to gain significant profit are tasks that you can never take lightly.

Are you thoroughly informed of what makes a successful business tick? Whether you’re only just starting out with your business or you’ve been using other marketing methods to improve your sales, the following tips might help you shed a bit more light on the matter.

Targeted Mobile Marketing

As we’ve shown in our previous post, there are numerous benefits to bulk SMS strategies and even more ways to make them profitable. However, if you want any mobile marketing techniques to work properly, you have to know how to target precisely the people you need.

There are several ways to do that:

• Read up on the area, state or city you need to target. What works for some geographical locations will not work for others.

• Listen to the people: what are they looking for in a business such as yours in that particular area?

• Finally, it’s a good idea to work closely with operators, particularly for location based SMS marketing.

Keeping Up with Technology Advancements

Technological breakthroughs appear almost on a daily basis as mobile phone and tablet PC brands strive to create hardware that allows more opportunities for people to work faster and use more helpful or entertaining applications.

If you’re using a mobile internet based strategy, make sure you know what types of phones and tablets people use the most in that region. That will give you an idea of the platforms and apps that those devices use and help you calibrate your ads and campaigns accordingly.

Opt-In Options for SMS Services

Spam is no longer an option in marketing, regardless of the types of platforms or services you’re using. When you set up an SMS service, maybe not everyone will be interested, but you definitely want those who are on your side.

An essential strategy for SMS marketing, therefore, is the inclusion of an opt-in option with the use of a specific keyword that potential clients can use to join your subscription.

This will show them that you care about their opinion and you only want them to join if they are genuinely interested. We will be taking a closer look at getting actual results with SMS services in our following publication.

Keep an Eye on Your Competitors

The tips presented thus far will not be too effective unless you know what your competitors are up to. Since there are thousands of SMS and mobile marketing campaigns out there today, you might want to do some research on exactly what similar businesses use to find new customers and entice them into buying their products or contacting them for paid services.

This will provide you with a little additional insight on what works and what doesn’t, as well as on types of mobile marketing trends that are not used by too many businesses, but could be perfect for yours.

Targeting the right buyers and keeping your entire marketing strategy into perspective while attempting innovative methods to boost your sales is essential, not only for achieving better results, but for ensuring that your business can stay successful in the long run as well.

Ideas for Boosting Your Advertising Campaign with Free SMS Services Top Tips and Tricks

So you’re here to find out how to make money with ad campaigns using a free SMS service and capture the attention of potential subscribers. While this is considered a viable method, there are several things that people tend to take for granted when planning how to choose, manage and promote your strategy.

The question is, are you ready to let go of all your doubts and put some practical ideas to the test when it comes to text message marketing? If you have a positive mindset and an eagerness for trying out new things, the following tips are definitely for you.

Intriguing Ideas for Attracting Subscribers

The first thing you have to think about is the level of creativity and diversity you put into your SMS content, not only to gather subscribers but to avoid making them feel like they’ve regretted their decision to subscribe:

• One idea is to promote an SMS news service. You can send your subscribers local or international news about politics, sports and social events or even quick alerts about what some of the top celebrities of the day are up to.

• Practical information is also very popular, and you can gain a lot of recognition by focusing on weather forecasts, radar and local traffic conditions or even earthquakes and tornados.

• Entertainment ideas and lifestyle tips - these can include anything from horoscopes or diet, exercise and weight loss advice to recently released movies, videogames or outdoor, hobby and travel related topics.

Free SMS Services and Advertising – Tips for Getting Real Results

Now, keep in mind that what you’re basically doing is to try to persuade people who might be interested in what you want to promote to sign up for your messaging campaign via SMS, practically giving you their phone numbers.

Simple, isn’t it? Well, there’s a little more to that, especially when it comes to using the right “tricks” for getting people to subscribe:

• First, it’s important to invite people to subscribe, so never try to be pushy – it just won’t work.

• Use incentives, highlighting the benefits people can gain by subscribing.

• Always focus on your targeted broadcast subscribers, not the general public.

• Avoid lengthy phrases, and use powerful, descriptive words to get your point across.

• Never spam your audience, and limit texts about donations, buying things or subscribing for paid services.

Anyone who knows a thing or two about marketing (and psychology) will be aware of the fact that these tips should work regardless of the actual service you are promoting, although, it really helps if your content is useful, informational or at least entertaining.

Promoting Your Service

Now, in order to promote your service, you have to focus on more than just online methods with the help of a website, SEO, social media, guest blogging or even email marketing.

While these are useful methods, you have to broaden your horizons by presenting your campaign at important offline events, using flyers either in bus stops, squares and train stations or just getting your friends and family to help.

Although you can’t really put anyone under a spell and convince them to subscribe or to click on any of the ads, with a sound strategy, it becomes very easy to be successful if you keep all these tips in mind.
