Espanol Marketing por Los Mensajes de Texto
Los mensajes de texto serán muy pronto la mayor forma de marketing para las empresas. Como lo fue el e-mail a principios de este siglo, el marketing de los mensajes está creando una reacción en los consumidores ya que piden que la información les sea enviada directamente a sus móviles. El marketing de los mensajes de texto son dos herramientas en una.
En primer lugar, puedes encontrar anuncios independientes que atraen a los consumidores simplemente a través de un mensaje. Un claro ejemplo de esto puede ser un anuncio que una empresa publica en el periódico local creando una promoción de una venta durante el fin de semana. El anuncio generaría a los lectores la necesidad de mandar un mensaje con la palabra clave “VENTA” al código 32075 para recibir un 10% de descuento en su compra. El cliente obtendría una respuesta automática con un código de descuento que llevarían directamente a la tienda. Además, la compañía que ofrece la promoción podría medir la efectividad del anuncio comparándolas con otras herramientas de marketing que utiliza (radio, televisión, prensa, etcetera).

Business Karma, Zappos sold to Amazon
Two of my favorite companies Zappos and Amazon just combined their 2 companies to become a very powerful online provider of retail products. What makes them so special? They care for their customers and take it too the extreme. They pride themselves on customer service and they have a long term focus for the growth of their company.
Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh “Our culture at Zappos is unique and always evolving and changing, because one of our core values is to Embrace and Drive Change.”
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos video on what he has learned
“We are joining forces with Amazon because there is a huge opportunity to utilize each other’s strengths and move even faster towards our vision of delivering happiness to customers, employees and vendors,” said Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos.
At Qittle we believe this drive and focus on our customers to do more with their marketing and their brand is the biggest reason we are in business. To serve the needs of our customers, our team and our investors. Here is what one of our Qittle team had to say about the cultural at Qittle.
“We’ve been getting Fast Company for years and I’ve been following Zappo’s ever since I read their first article on them. I saw a lot of their values and goals in Qittle and ultimately something I wanted to be a part of.” Matt
What do customers want?
To start, customers want product value that exceeds the price they’re paying. Next, they want a level of service that rises above their expectations. As proof, two of the top 15 Customer Service Champs are Amazon.com and Zappos.com, both known for discount prices and exceptional service.
