I can't speak for your customer base but, personally, I despise being called.
95% of calls from businesses are announcements rather than conversations. There is zero need to interrupt me in real-time to tell me my car is ready; it is not going to make me come any quicker.
SMS is far less invasive.
- jjtheblunt 3y agototally agree: asynchronous messaging fits the idea of maintaining momentum, for me anyway, and for most folks i know for decades.
- BenjiWiebe 3y agoAs one of the people who calls with information like that, I would love to go to all sms. However, there are still a lot of people who never check their text messages. I've started asking all the customers if it's ok to text instead of call, and probably a third of them say not to text. These do tend to be older people.
