What is Landline texting?
Landline texting is the ability to send and receive texts using a landline number. This allows your business to text with customers using your landline, rather than your own personal number.
​
Previously, texting using a landline number was not feasible, potentially causing missed business opportunities. However, that is no longer the case.
​
With text-to-landline enabled, give your customers the convenience of texting you on the same number they've been calling you on. All this without any change in your calling.
​
This provides customers with an efficient way to communicate with the business. This also enables businesses to respond to customer queries and resolve issues quickly.
Why Text-to-Landline?
Why should you use landline text marketing?
Landline texting has become an integral part of communication to all kinds of businesses.
Here is why you must use landline texting to stay connected with your customers.
98%
With a whopping 98% open rate compared to a low 18-20% for emails, SMS could be a game changer for your business.
36%
Since 36% of the recipients click on a link, SMS marketing leaves you with a better chance to convert your leads.
90%
But that's not it. More than 90% of texts are read within three minutes of delivery. This is your cue to stop using emails!
With landline vs. without landline
Never miss a business opportunity with landline texting
Are you aware that you are missing out on potential business because your customers cannot reach you via text. With text-to-landline enabled, your customers can reach you, easily and instantly. You will also improve your customer service and boost productivity with the ability to handle multiple text conversations at once. Don't let missed messages hurt your business.
By enabling text messaging on your business landline, you will be able to receive texts from prospects sent to your business landline. This enables you to send a response to the customer's message, subsequently allowing the customer to receive your response. This can lead to a delightful conversation and potentially result in a successful sale.
Without a text-to-landline service, a prospect sends a text to a business. However, since landlines cannot receive SMS, the prospect will not receive a response from the business either. As a result, there will be a lost opportunity for the business.
