147: Implement Personalized 1:1 Conversations Through Text Messaging

Your Business Is A Journey. Invest In Yourself Today.

Being an entrepreneur is a life of learning, implementing, and iterating. All it would take is a new idea, a strategy, a Shopify app, or a marketing platform to be the next thing you need to improve efficiencies, drive more revenue, and build lifetime customer loyalty for your Shopify brand.

In today’s episode, my guest is Alex Beller the Co-Founder and President of Postscript. They are a Conversational Commerce Platform and a Shopify Plus Certified App Partner.

They help Shopify merchants get more ROI and build better customer relationships via text messaging. Using Postscript, you’ll be able to easily grow your subscriber list, create targeted text marketing campaigns, and most importantly, have the ability for two-way conversations with customers.

For those listening today that have not implemented an SMS strategy yet, Postscript can help you get started by syncing your Shopify store data and literally, within a few minutes, you can activate default text marketing automations like abandoned cart recovery, shipping notifications, welcome series, and loyalty offers. This will give your revenue an immediate bump!
