PlumReward Mobile Coupons

As taken from PlumReward.com
PlumReward in a nutshell
What is it?
A device (or kiosk) and reporting system that enables you to send timely coupons and promotions as text messages to your customers on their cell phone while being able to track their visits and coupon redemptions at your business.
How does it work?
There are two ways that PlumReward works:
1.
When a customer makes a purchase at your business, they enter their cell phone number into the PlumReward device. They will receive a text message that asks them if they would like to receive coupons and promotions via text messaging. Once they respond YES, then you can send them text messages with coupons and promotions to their cell phone. Each time they make a purchase at your business, they enter their cell phone number and PlumReward logs their visit. They can earn free items or discounts based on the number of times they’ve made a purchase at your business.
2.
In all of your other marketing (eg. newspaper, radio, TV) you can tell people to text a certain code (eg. PIZZA) to 50240 to receive a coupon. They will then be signed up, and the system will operate as stated above.
What are the benefits?
- Increased revenue. Proven success rates with targeted messages sent directly to a subscriber’s cell phone.
- No more loyalty cards. Your customers can log each of their visits using their cell phone number and earn rewards for visiting more often.
- Track customer actions. Our web reporting tool will tell you who has received coupons, redeemed coupons, when your busiest and slowest times are, which marketing campaigns are the most successful, etc….
