How tour operators use SMS

Tour deals move fast and so do the seats. When a package sale goes out, the operators who text their database beat the ones relying on email opens, and when a deposit is due, a text reminder recovers bookings that would otherwise lapse. Australian tour operators use Mobile Message to send package deal campaigns across their customer list, chase deposits and balances before a booking request expires, and follow up new enquiries by text while the traveller is still comparing options.

Mobile Message sends at 1.6¢ per message on your first purchase with no monthly fees or contracts, so a tour business can text its whole customer list for a fraction of what a mail-out or a phone round costs. Send under your own business name, personalise every message with a first name, and read replies to a deal or a booking reminder in one shared inbox your sales team can work from together.

SMS for Package deal campaigns
Package deal campaigns

Blast your whole customer database when a new package goes on sale, whether it's an island resort special or a limited departure, each message personalised with the traveller's first name.

SMS for Deposit and balance reminders
Deposit and balance reminders

Send a text when a booking deposit or balance is due so requests don't quietly expire, the kind of reminder that recovers bookings an email alone would miss.

SMS for New enquiry follow-up
New enquiry follow-up

Text a new enquiry back within minutes confirming you've received it and invite a reply, so a hot lead doesn't go cold waiting on an email response.

SMS for Weather and itinerary alerts

How It Works

How it works

1Import your customer list

Upload past travellers and enquiries as a CSV, or add them as new leads come in, so your database is ready for the next deal or departure.

2Send a deal or a reminder

Blast a package deal to your whole list with first-name personalisation, or send a one-off deposit reminder to a single booking.

3Send now or schedule ahead

Time a campaign to go out the moment a sale starts, or schedule a reminder to land a few days before a balance is due.

4Reply from a shared inbox

Every reply, whether it's a deal enquiry or a question about a booking, lands in one shared inbox your sales team can work from together.
