30. Case Studies Chris Schenk, Business Owner, Richmond, VA Chris launched a new website in February of 2010. He had approximately 200 people in his text data base. He sent a blast out with an incentive for people to go to his site and print off his home page and bring that it to his location for a free gift. He had 153 people redeem his offer, an approximate 76% redemption!

31. Textimonial "When I first had one of my clients try the text services they sent out a blast to about 100 people in their database and told me they had a 10% redemption within an hour. I really didn't believe them as a 10% redemption is unheard of. I'm used to a 1-2% redemption being very good and so to hear 10% I really just blew it off, but the next blast they did they had another 10% redemption and this time I paid attention and realized they weren't kidding. It's unbelievable to be able to get a 10% redemption within an hour of sending out a BoomText...I've never seen anything like it and I've been doing this for 15 years! Text message marketing really does work!" Lance Reynolds Groupo Patron (Marketing Consulting Firm) Phoenix, Arizona

32. Case Study "In the first 12 weeks that I implemented my text message marketing campaign from BoomText I had over 1,000 people "opt-in". I sent a blast text message to my opt in group inviting my customers in to my restaurant on Wednesday from 3pm to 5pm to receive a free sandwich. The redeem rate was 12% from those who received the text message! The best part is that my sales were up 135% during that 3pm to 5pm time slot!" Greg Harjo Restaurant Owner, Chandler, AZ

33. Textimonial "I think we are all still recovering from the community response to our first official BoomText blast we launched yesterday! Our first ever Chick-fil-A Wesley Chapel Weddington text alert offer for a FREE Chicken Sandwich was sent to 211 text club members! The response was tremendous! The phone rang off the hook with customers asking for verification. Customers forwarded the offer to friends and family and we ultimately gave away 1,015 Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwiches between the hours of 3 and 7pm! Although the response pushed operations to the limit and the line was wrapped around our dining room, customers were elated over the offer and not a single person complained! We have definitely realized the extraordinary promotional opportunities BoomText provides for us through the social media of texting!"Sherry StegallMarketing DirectorWesley Chapel, North Carolina
