Why Choose Mercantile?
SMS works great. Delivering images, videos and unlimited copy via MMS works even better!
Video
MMS delivers 40 seconds of high quality video. Embedding video within a text means people are more likely to view it when compared to streaming links sent via email/SMS.
Images
MMS delivers one image or multiple images. Your other marketing uses imagery, so why not your text alerts? It’s easier to sell a shirt when you can show the shirt.
Unlimited Text
MMS has no character limit, supports an expanded character which means Spanish copy reads correctly and corporate symbols like © and ™ are available.
You send a lot of SMS. So do your competitors.
Upgrade to MMS and stand out from the crowd.
