With high levels of inventory builders are getting into the text messaging marketing business. The major response we've been getting from potential buyers is they love the ability to see pictures and get pricing information. "Its just a very easy way to get the information I want," said Jeff Sunday, a potential buyer in Charlotte, NC. As a builder its has been a great way to start a conversation. "Everyone thinks its really cool that they can get information about the property right on their phone. It just makes the first part of the sales a little easier," said Mary Anderson, a sales agent at one of the large developments in South Charlotte.

Why SMS marketing will work in 2009. "All companies are going to be revising their advertising and marketing budgets to cope with the downturn in the economy and they're going to be looking for vehicles that are going to give them the best ROI and the best response rates. If you look at mobile marketing, it has one of the highest response rates, with the largest reach potential of any medium out there today. So I believe we're going to see a continued investment in mobile and possibly even a higher growth rate than what's estimated." |
