Your Mobile strategy should compliment and integrate with your overall marketing strategy. Therefore we recommend the head of marketing/manager be involved with planning. Don't make the mistake of putting mobile in the digital marketing or online category. Mobile compliments all your marketing efforts.
8. What is the cost to listeners/viewers/fans to participate in our mobile marketing programs?
Dirtbag Mobile Hookup does not charge a fee. But, Standard Carrier Messaging Rates and Charges Apply. The cost to the user is determined by their cell phone carrier's service plan. Some customers pay for each message – though never more than 6 or 20 cents. The majority of consumers who opt-in to text message campaigns are avid texters and have unlimited or package SMS text plans.
9. Do all the consumers/fans in a mobile marketing program have to opt in?
Fans must Opt-In. So If you want to buy lists of cell phone numbers and send them unsolicited messages the answer is NO! That's not how mobile marketing works. The beauty of mobile is that the people who receive your message have requested them from you. This is key to the high ROI (Return On Investment) we get with mobile marketing.
10. How do customers/fans opt out of campaigns?
All the customer/fan needs to do is reply to a message with the word 'stop' and they are removed from the campaign. It's that simple!
