Shastic can help your Financial Institution create and schedule SMS campaigns for promotions and marketing.
Marketing and Promotional SMS requires specific consent from Members that are willing to receive electronic communication. The Financial Institution needs to gather this consent before sending this type of promotional message.
There are three types of business texts:
- Promotional (marketing)
- Informational (product or service updates)
- Conversational (two-way communication) - Shastic IPA and SMS Member Communication.
How do I schedule a promotional campaign?
The process of scheduling a campaign is pretty simple, Shastic will work on setting the campaign in our system and would need just a couple of pieces of information:
- Endpoints.- Phone numbers that the campaign will be targeting, this list can be sent in a.csv file to Shastic. Our team will take care of formatting and updating it in our system.
