Growth in mobile marketing activities by marketers and application developers
Application developers, marketers, and brands together utilize SMS service to strengthen their customer base, by updating their users with breaking news, campaign perks, location-based opportunities, and other important information. Marketers and brands prefer text messaging over other marketing initiatives, as it allows them to reconnect with customers, who have deleted their apps or have not used their apps recently. With the growing trend of SMS marketing in banking, financing, gambling/ betting, hospitality, leisure, and advertising industries, the impact of mobile marketing activities on the A2P SMS market is currently high.
Brands are likely to increase their promotional activities, due to which the impact of mobile marketing activities is expected to be high in the short and medium term of the forecast period. However, with digitalization and growing internet penetration, brand promoters are likely to shift from SMS marketing to email marketing in the long run.
