According to manufacturing journalist, TR Cutler, texting proves vastly more effective in the manufacturing sector for B2B marketing. Cutler recently discussed the changes in effective marketing in the November issue of Manufacturing Outlook magazine. Read the full article here.
Cutler shared, “Buying lists, no matter how diligently they are validated, are junk within 90 days. Younger recipients of emails are accustomed to ghosting and deleting folks with whom a great initial sales call may have occurred. The Manufacturing Media Consortium just completed a global survey of 1200 manufacturing executives who reported deleting more than 75% of all incoming emails, with 90% aggressively unsubscribing due to the sheer velocity of messaging.”
The best solution is to capture cell phone numbers whether at a webinar, tradeshow, conference, event, or meeting. The response rate to a text is running 600% higher than voicemails or emails. Everyone carries a phone on their person and responds to incoming texts with alacrity. As long as there is no spam filter on the incoming texts, the response rate will justify the effort.
