Cleantie SMS Marketing

Twilio for Notifications and TextMagic for Marketing

In the fast-paced world of laundry services, efficient communication is crucial. Cleantie understands the importance of staying connected with customers and keeping them informed about their orders. To achieve this, Cleantie uses Twilio, a reliable and powerful platform, to send notification text messages to your customers. However, due to stringent spam regulations, Twilio cannot be used for SMS marketing campaigns. Instead, we recommend our customers set up an account with TextMagic for their SMS marketing needs.

What is SMS Marketing?

SMS marketing is a form of mobile marketing that involves sending promotional messages or advertisements via text messages (SMS) to a targeted audience. Businesses use SMS marketing to communicate directly with customers, providing updates, offers, alerts, and other relevant information.

The Challenge with SMS Marketing

Due to spam regulations, Twilio enforces strict rules to prevent misuse of its service for sending unsolicited messages. This makes it unsuitable for SMS marketing campaigns, which often require sending promotional messages to a large audience.
