• 91% of customers are willing to sign up to receive texts from brands.

Done right, SMS marketing nurtures your customer relationships and encourages customers to visit your restaurants frequently.

This guide covers how the Mobiz platform makes it easy to harness the power of SMS delivery and goes beyond text messages with personalized landing pages that boost your engagement using strong visual elements.  Below are some of the highly-customizable templates from Mobiz that you can use to take your SMS campaigns to the next level.

1. Coupons and discounts messages

People don’t always open the email messages they receive, but most open their text messages. SMS campaigns have an average open rate of 98% while email only has 20%.

That’s why it pays to send your discount codes via SMS rather than through email alone. This way, you increase the chances of customers seeing your discounts and taking you up on your offers. That means your campaigns will be more effective.

This Mobiz landing page template makes it easy to send your discount code, as well as entice customers with delicious food photos. You can also use the personalization features to swap out the photo for each customer based on their favorite dish.

You can also customize your landing page by adding your logo, changing the color scheme and by adding or removing elements.

2. New location openings

Are you launching a new location for your restaurant?

Get the word out quickly and encourage customers to attend your opening with a compelling SMS campaign. Mobiz offers a new store opening template you can easily customize to fit your restaurant and brand:

Replace the page background colors, images, and other elements. Write a catchy text message and use compelling CTAs based on how you want to promote your new restaurant location opening. For instance, include discounts to the first 20 customers or a short link to get directions to the location.

3. New menu Items

Build up excitement for your restaurant by using an SMS campaign to promote your new menu item.

Choose from many customizable templates or start from scratch using a basic template with the recommended elements:

Create a personalized mobile landing page with a delectable image of your new menu item and compelling CTAs. Craft custom messaging using customer data such as name, location, purchasing habits and time of day for maximum effectiveness.

4. Holidays and events

Holidays such as Valentine’s Day and Christmas are some of the best times to get more customers to your restaurant. Announce and promote your special events and accompanying offers with attractive SMS campaigns.

Text promotions are a lot easier to notice since most emails and other channels are usually flooded with special event offers during holiday seasons.

Take inspiration from this Thanksgiving SMS campaign template:

Personalize the template by including your customer’s name and adding holiday or special event-themed elements, colors, and CTAs.
