Seems like you have a good grasp on what to say already. i understood
right away what you meant.

Are you just asking for ideas to make the sentences smaller,
or are you looking for power words, call to action ?

Something like this ....

12% conversion rates on anything you sell ...

Our promotions sell 12% and more ...

You will receive upto 12% increase in sales

im not sure if that what your looking for or not.
if you clarify, im sure this thread will blow up ....

Thanks

"We have a 12% redemption rate of all ads, coupons, and promotions."

simple, and if you have to explain it and spell it out, then really sell it with emotion and vocal tonality.

I'm doing SMS marketing so I need it to point out that 12% of texts sent out result in a customer coming in. I need it to be simpler and more professional sounding, though, haha.

12% of our SMS offers result in...

customers coming in to buy take advantage of your offer? <Too much.

sales? <Sounds good, but is it enough?

business? < Doesn't really get to the point, I don't think.

Thanks

People oftentimes respond well to fractions.

e.g.

One in 8 text messages sent results in a customer purchase.

If that's true - it sounds pretty good...1 out of 8 - if you can get 625 sales from 5000 msgs -

On Average 12% of All TEXT Ads We Send Result in Customer Sales...

Something that your putting on a flyer, where your not going to be able to elaborate to them at all, I would recommend the "1 out of 8". I've met business managers that don't come close to understanding what an ROI or conversion rate is but if I told them 1 in 8 results in a sale, it's universal

If you are meeting with them while your giving out a flyer, you might go more with redemption rate or ROI as they make you sound more professional and intelligent so long as you can explain to those who don't get it!

Goodluck,

I'm sure at least 99% gets read. No one misses a text!

There's no research to back the reoccurring sales.

Obviously, lol. Text ads are usually timed and end at the end of the day.

There are some really good ones here.

My 2 cents is this ... do not use "sms". Replace that with "text messages".

Most business owners don't know what an sms is. This creates confusion. Confused minds don't act or buy! You then lose them right up front.

When marketing you always want to market to a 6th grader. Use little words, use words that are well known, words that they know and understand.

We all know what sms, seo, etc is. They don't! But "text messaging" has been out for a long time so they can relate and understand that.

Or just explain what SMS means on the flyer that's what I did. But that was good to point out.
