SMS (Short Message Service)

Explanation:

SMS (Short Message Service) is a text messaging service used to send short, text-based messages (typically up to 160 characters) between mobile devices. SMS is commonly used for personal communication, business alerts, marketing campaigns, and customer support, offering a quick and direct way to engage with customers.

Best Practices:

• Keep It Concise: Since SMS messages have a character limit, make sure the content is clear, concise, and to the point.
• Personalize Messages: Where possible, include the recipient's name or other personal information to make the message more engaging.
• Ensure Clear Call to Action (CTA): Use SMS to prompt immediate action, such as confirming appointments, making purchases, or completing a survey.
• Respect Privacy: Obtain customer consent before sending marketing or promotional SMS messages and provide an easy way to opt out.
