With Easter just around the corner, some might say it’s too late to launch an Easter campaign.
They’d be wrong.
If you haven’t already made use of our awesome Easter postcards, you can create and send an Easter campaign in time for the big day. Thanks to the humble SMS text message.
And to help you speed up the process, we’ve created some SMS templates for Easter. Simply:
Copy the templated message
Paste it into your message field when creating an SMS campaign
Edit the info in the square brackets to be relevant to your business
If you’re running a seasonal promotion, get your message to your customers quickly and reliably with SMS. Check out our templates below.
