- It's quick, easy, and less expensive to send out messages
- People typically read messages faster than emails, so your message will have a higher chance of being seen and responded to.
- Viber and SMS messaging ensure your message reaches your customers directly on their mobile devices and through the apps they use for personal communication. This helps connect with your audience on an intimate level which can build a strong bond between you and your customers.
- On Viber, you can add design elements such as images, videos and emojis to improve the look and feel of your campaigns. This will help them stand out from the competition and make them more engaged.

Be creative: Use playful language and interesting visuals to make your message stand out from the crowd.
Be timely: Timing is everything when it comes to Viber and SMS messaging, so make sure your messages are sent at the right time for maximum impact. -– don't bombard recipients with too many messages at once in order not to overwhelm them!
