SMS Marketing Company Hiring Guide

What is an SMS marketing company?

An SMS marketing company is a marketing agency that specializes in sending promotional and informational content to its clients' customers via text messages. 

What services do SMS marketing companies offer?

Some of the typical services that SMS marketing companies offer include: 

  • Promotional campaigns 
  • Customer survey campaigns 
  • Automated responses 
  • Appointment reminders 
  • Content sharing 
  • Brand awareness campaigns 
  • Lead generation 

How much do SMS marketing services cost?

The cost of SMS marketing services depends on several factors, including the geographical region you are targeting and the SMS provider, message length and volume, type of message (SMS or MMS), and additional features like campaign scheduling and tracking or customer support. 

For the US, these are the typical costs of SMS marketing services per text length: 

  • Up to 160 characters: $0.015 per SMS 
  • Up to 320 characters: $0.03 per SMS 
  • Up to 480 characters: $0.045 per SMS 
  • Up to 640 characters: $0.06 per SMS 

If you plan on running an international SMS marketing campaign, you will have to pay additional carrier fee costs that vary from country to country and depend on the partnerships between your service provider and local carriers. On average, an international SMS costs between $0.25 and $0.50 per message. 

Why should I hire an SMS marketing agency?

In 2023, 86% of business owners and marketing managers used SMS marketing, which is a 56% increase compared to 2022. Some companies are unsure if SMS marketing still works, but the statistics show that SMS campaigns have high open rates (98%) and click-through rates (10.66%), making them a powerful marketing tool.
