Drive ticket sales and customer satisfaction with Textlocal

There’s really nothing worse than turning up to an event and realising that you’ve left the ticket at home! By leveraging a comprehensive text and SMS messaging service, it’s not only that much easier to strengthen ticket sales, but also much easier for customers to gain entry. After all, you’re far less likely to lose your phone than a small stub of paper; SMS delivered tickets are more reliable and easier to use than the traditional alternative.

Hundreds of entertainment and leisure venues are already reaping the benefits of making SMS a prominent feature of their customer communications. As the single most effective method of contacting your customers (according the Direct Marketing Association), with exceptionally high open and response rates, SMS is fast, measurable, personal, time-saving and cheap. What’s more, with Textlocal’s industry-leading innovations there’s now so much more you can do with your 160 characters; from easy to use loyalty reward schemes, to customer service enhancing surveys; the sky really is the limit.

Take a look below to see some of the many ways that a bulk SMS messaging service can enhance the performance of your entertainment and leisure business, as well the enjoyment of customers.
