Hello,
we have released a new SMS module for Magento! Mage SMS allows you to send SMS (text messages) to your customers or administrators during various events in your Magento store.
Improve customer service & notify customers via SMS to establish greater levels of trust. Deepen the relationship with your customers and build a stronger customer loyalty with the help of SMS marketing. Loyal customers tend to buy more & more regularly. They will also frequently recommend your e-shop to others. More customers = higher sales...!
Why use SMS for eCommerce?
- Notification via SMS ensures efficient transmission of information and your customers will be informed faster, especially those who do not have permanent access to the internet and e-mails.
- SMSs are always delivered to its addressee, opposed to an e-mail which can be considered as SPAM.
- Some customers receive dozens of e-mails to their mailbox every day and can therefore easily miss your emails.
- SMSs are always read!
Supported Magento events for SMS alert:
- a new order is created
- status of an order has changed (your custom order statuses will be automatically recognized and added to the list!)
