What To Look For In Your SMS Gateway Provider

Today, a marketing company must add the mobile advertising platform to its repertoire if it wants to remain competitive. Over the last few years in particular, text messaging services have really resonated with businesses who are learning how to build subscriber lists and engage mobile phone users without invading their privacy or annoying them. It can be a delicate balance, but strategically delivered messages can be a valuable asset to a mobile customer, providing instant savings when and where the consumer needs it. That being said, your marketing company has many different plans and programs to choose from. Here are the main considerations for your SMS gateway provider.

What To Consider With An SMS Gateway Provider

• What SMS plans do you want to offer?
• Are the subscriber lists generally be pretty small or very large?
• Will you need to handle bulk SMS coming in?
• How will you be dealing with international texts or just domestic?
• Do you want to enable video and picture message texts?
• Will you offer interactive SMS to your clients?
• Would you like technical support for the SMS gateway?

How To Find Your SMS Gateway Provider

It is important for you to understand that you will come across different types of SMS gateway providers out there. First, you will find other marketing companies such as yourself acting as SMS resellers.
