Socialogue: Text Me, Text Me Not...

Global - Ipsos Open Thinking Exchange (Ipsos OTX) and Ipsos Global @dvisor are pleased to share the latest proprietary global infographic and commentary on the trends and behaviors that define people's lives in today's social media age.

If you want consumers to love you, send them promotions via email. When it comes to receiving a promotion, 75% of people prefer receiving offers via email rather than text. As rapidly as mobile commerce is growing, the number of those using smart phones to make purchases does not yet rival those using promotion codes online or printing coupons and taking them into stores. And, while one day it will be routine for a consumer to use a promotion in-store directly from a text, the retail world is not yet there. So, love your consumers by sending them email promotions. Better yet, when you do so, as if they'd rather receive them by text. Then you can develop a growing global daisy chain of consumers who take you up on your proposal.
