Learn how text messaging can transform your business communication and close more deals

Are you missing out on connecting with 88% of your prospects simply because they never open your emails? In my conversation with Chris Brisson, we uncover why text messaging has become an essential communication tool that many businesses overlook. Chris reveals how implementing text messaging strategically throughout your customer lifecycle can dramatically improve lead engagement, reduce no-shows, and strengthen client relationships without additional costs or effort.

I'm thrilled to bring you this conversation with Chris Brisson, a long-time friend and three-time Inc. 5000 founder who has been innovating in the messaging space since 2010. As founder of Sales Message, Chris has helped countless businesses implement effective text messaging strategies that feel natural and human. His upcoming book "Textize Your Business" provides a framework that any size company can use to leverage conversational messaging. After this episode, I'm confident you'll be including text messaging in your overall marketing strategy.

  • Nearly half (45%) of people prefer texting businesses rather than calling them.
  • Text messaging helps engage leads quickly while they're interested, qualify them, and ensure they show up for appointments.
  • Text messaging can be used throughout the customer lifecycle - from generating leads to getting reviews and referrals.
