What is Hosted SMS?
Hosted SMS is a messaging service that enables Tychron customers to use their existing phone numbers from other voice service providers to send and receive SMS and MMS. Hosting with Tychron is easy and will not interrupt or change your current voice services. It’s a quick and simple way to get more out of the number(s) you already have!
What are the perks of Hosted SMS?
With hosted SMS you can start connecting with your existing customers in new engaging ways over the same phone number they are familiar with. From booking confirmations and appointment reminders to sales alerts and enhanced security with two-factor authentication, there are tons of ways your customers can benefit from receiving just a simple text from your business.
You might not know it, but approximately 43% of consumers have actually texted a business before even being first contacted by them.[1] That is a lot of missed potential for customer engagement if you don’t already have your business number text-enabled. With hosted SMS, there is no need to switch numbers or get a new one. It’s a simple way to give your customers more options when connecting with your business.
