Example
You own the "Royal Gardens Restaurant", so you select your business id to be "Royal Gardens".
You know that you serve two different crowds - the lunch crowd is from out of town, and the dinner crowd is local, so you will set up two advertising campaigns, #lunch and #dinner.
At lunch, you display the poster:
lunch specials!
text
Royal Gardens #lunch
to 1234567.
At dinner, another poster reads:
dinner specials!
text
Royal Gardens #dinner
to 1234567.
Now your clients sign up for the campaign of their choice. You can have a different "welcome text" for each campaign. When they sign up for the #lunch campaign, they may receive a text that says:
Free eggroll with lunch tomorrow!
So when they sign up while waiting in line today, they receive a message that encourages them to come in again tomorrow. (You can change the welcome text at any time.)
Now, say it is a slow day. At 11:00 am, you send out a text to all the #lunch subscribers which says
Free fountain drinks at lunch today!
and the lunch clients decide to come to you instead of your competitors.
Is it just for restaurants?
NO! Texts may be sent to any groups of students, clients, etc:
Orchestra practice tonight canceled due to snow!
Auction tomorrow! Lots of vintage farm equipment!
Your message to your group here!
