Checking our phones for notifications, texts, and alerts has become almost an unconscious act for many. It’s not exactly controversial to say that smartphones are heavily relied upon in some form for nearly all facets of our day-to-day activities.
This is why text message marketing has become so popular in recent years. With so many people paying such close attention to their phones, why not take advantage of this and send alerts, schedule updates, promotions and more through these channels to your organization's members and attendees right from within MotorsportReg?
