  • Engaging the Mobile Enterprise Audience – Via SMS
    A Mobile Enterprise Whitepaper Engaging the Mobile Enterprise Audience – via SMS SMS TARGETS — and HiTS — THE MOBILE ENTERPRISE AUDIENCE Enterprises Pressed to Follow their Mobile Employees and Customers If there’s one monolithic feature that has dominated the enterprise IT landscape in the past few years, few would hesitate to say it’s mobility. The growth of wireless infrastructure and mobile devices has untethered employees, consumers and shareholders alike, and anyone tasked with reaching these groups has seen fixed communication channels shrink in effectiveness as mobile messaging has grown. Mail is for snails; the newspaper that lands on the driveway is read by people whose average age is 57, according to the Carnegie Corporation. Almost 25 percent of the United States population has dropped their landlines, according to the FCC. Even video has moved out of the house, and now rides on smart phones and tablets. The enterprise is now pressed to follow its employees, customers, prospects and investors wherever they go, and IT, HR, marketing and other departments have had to consider a wide range of mobility approaches. Those tasked with reaching out have found their greatest reach in a relatively simple technology: SMS. Commonly associated in the United States with inter-teenager communication, SMS and its multi-media brother, MMS, have been mushrooming in traffic volume around the world. (See Fig. 1). Over 6.9 trillion SMS messages were exchanged worldwide in 2010; total SMS traffic is expected to reach more than 11.6 trillion by the end of 2015. Person- to-person messages, let alone teenage texting, account for only part, and not the largest part, of the new traffic.
