More of us will use a mobile device this year than ever before for business communication.

• 90% of all text messages are opened in 90 seconds. Most emails sit for 72-hours. What's the right format for your business to consider for internal and customer communication?

• An app for your business allows customers to interact with you in a unique way. Learn who really wants and needs one. Join us for this engaging workshop to learn the ins and outs of text messaging, email and an app (really, it's that inexpensive?) for your business so you can answer the question, "What mobile messaging strategy is best for my business?"

  All attendees get a free Simplified SMS trial and a free Constant Contact trial.

DESCRIPTION:
