1. UNIQUE INCENTIVE – A GOOD “CALL TO ACTION": Since mobile marketing is a push/pull form of communication, the marketer must incentivize the consumer to text-in. To do so, we encourage our clients to offer a solid promotion, whether in the form of a discount, free item or a sweepstakes with an opportunity to win a worthwhile prize.

2. RE-MARKETING OPPORTUNITIES: It is not good enough to simply push out a “one off” message. The goal is to build a data base of interested “double opt-in” consumers and to utilize the database in a targeted manner for re-marketing purposes.

3. EASY REDEMPTION: Once the consumer receives the mobile offer, he or she must be able to easily redeem it. Whether in the form of a unique code, an embedded bar code or a click-2-call functionality.

4. TRACKABILITY: Finally, what makes mobile marketing so unique is the ability to track receipt and redemption of offers and promotions.
