82%, (6,044) of those 7,328 subscribers opted into receiving text campaigns from this location as well, allowing the business to text those subscribers with future SMS/MMS text campaigns.
During the first six months of the program, they sent 151,255 texts to subscribers with redeemable offers, of which 468 customers visited the store in order to redeem the offer.
