Greetings

Greetings could be a great way to reinforce your relationships with prospects and nurture your leads. For consistent greetings on every festival without a miss, you can create a festival drip campaign and send automated wishes to your prospects.

Follow-Ups

Follow-ups play a major role in cracking any deal. You never know if other competitors are also competing to win the same customer. So, it is essential to stay on top of your prospect’s minds without a miss. For this, you can automate a series of follow-up text messages using an SMS drip campaign and engage with prospects consistently.

For example:

“Hey, it’s been a while since we haven’t heard from you. Reply HELP, in case of any questions.”

Quotes

Traditionally, professionals use emails and calls to communicate requested quotes, which extends the timeframe of the process. Also, it leads to delayed responses when quotes are sent over email. For a faster process, you can send an automated quote based on the prospect’s requirements whenever any quote request comes in.

In today’s fast-paced environment, when a prospect inquires, the person expects a quick response from a brand. It takes no more than a minute to switch to other competitors in case of a delayed response from a brand. So, you can automate texts to engage immediately when any lead comes in. For example, you can send a text like How can I help you, or send a Calendly link to book a meeting can for further discussion.

Engagement Text

This would help to win the prospect’s confidence.
