The first and most important step is to get explicit consent before sending any marketing messages. There are multiple ways to get opt-ins:
Keyword Campaigns: Ask users to text a keyword (e.g., “JOIN”) to a shortcode.
Example: “Text JOIN to 12345 to get 10% off your first order!”
Website Pop-Ups: Offer discounts in exchange for their mobile number.
Landing Pages: Create dedicated opt-in pages with value-driven offers.
Point-of-Sale Signups: Ask in-store customers to opt in at checkout.
Social Media Promotions: Run ads or organic posts that promote your SMS list.
Important: Always include a disclaimer about how often messages will be sent and that standard message/data rates may apply.
3. Verify and Store the Data
Once someone opts in, confirm their subscription with a welcome message:
“Thanks for subscribing to Daily Deals! You’ll now receive benin mobile phone number list exclusive offers via SMS. Reply STOP to unsubscribe.”
