A Signup widget is a tool you can\nembed on your website that will allow users to easily subscribe or opt-in to your\ngroup on Experttexting and receive messages from you. Before jumping in, it is\nimportant to understand how the signup widget works. A signup widget is simply\na piece of code that you add to your site, which renders a basic form for a\nuser to enter in their information such as name, number and email address. The\nform will simply be connected to your Experttexting account. So, whenever a\nuser enters their number, it is not stored in the database of the website, but\nas a contact in your campaign group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, your audience looking for\nmore information can simply subscribe to your campaign using the signup widget\nand you can send them your latest promotions, notifications and updates\naccordingly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The need for a signup widget to collect contact information<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Despite being an old technology\nin internet terms, SMS marketing is now one of the most powerful marketing\ntechniques with conversion rates way beyond many other channels including\nemails. SMS marketers will tell you than an engaged contact list is the most valuable\ndata any business owner can have. This is because texting is personal and text\nmessages go directly to the top of the user\u2019s inbox as soon as you send them.\nCompare that to emails which are often ignored or end up in spam, important\ninformation may be delayed or missed entirely. By subscribing using the signup\nwidget, a user is providing their consent to receive information from you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These factors present the perfect\nback for a smart and long-term marketing channel that has a strong impact on\ntraffic and revenue if the proper strategy is applied. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
