• Provide exclusive offers and updates on classes, discounts, and more! Have subscribers text a keyword to your number in order to receive those deals instantly.

By asking key questions to potential customers, companies can make specific campaigns centered around audiences that they know will be appealing to them.

• Send important reminders to members and reminders on payments, hours of operation, and holiday related closings. Avoid unnecessary situations with members by ensuring that communication between you and the members is amazing. Gyms can use SMS texting to alert people if there are closings, reduction of hours, or reminders on outstanding or upcoming payment!
• Reach out to potential clients by promoting and marketing your services through SMS texting. Simply broadcast the keyword and shortcode through any marketing platform including in person and online methods. This is a great way to utilize and integrate with social media platforms, especially in order to reach certain demographics and clients.
• Provide excellent customer support through one to one texting. Trumpia’s software not only allows you to send messages, but also receive them from your subscribers.

Simply send a picture or video that gives a virtual tour of your facility in order to encourage them to want to join your gym.
• Provide health tips and other helpful information that will keep people on track towards their health goals. An example can be fun exercises that can make one’s workout more exciting, or even surprising foods to avoid if people want to lose weight. People will appreciate these nuggets of information, incentivizing them to stay subscribed to your messaging list.
