Use SMS Alerts for Client Outreach
Short message service (SMS) alerts can help you play a vital and vibrant role in your clients' lives. Similar to text messages, these short, cell phone transmissions can provide weather alerts, evacuation notices, post-disaster claims information, and other crucial bulletins to clients on an opt-in basis. SMS memos often carry links to websites where clients can find further useful content. You can also use them for appointment reminders, important policy notifications, and other business communications.
