Of existing and new clients, many salon owners choose to concentrate their efforts in the latter when<strong>\u00a0it actually costs 10 times more to do so than to focus on retention.<\/strong>\u00a0If that your case, if you haven&#8217;t been dedicating any time to reminding lapsed clients about your business, you could see unprecedented\u00a0results. The best part is, all you need to get started are a few SMS message templates. Allow me to explain.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Marketing To Lapsed Clients With SMS<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Designing a casual, friendly and relatable SMS message helps get customers&#8217; attention, inherently reminding them of your brand. In fact, did you know that SMS has a whopping 99% open rate? And through Phorest Salon Software, 70% of all SMS sent are opened within the first four minutes of being received. For these two reasons alone, one can see why SMS marketing is indeed an effective tool to get information out to lapsed clients.<\/p>\n<h3>Anti-Spam Laws, Consent &amp; SMS Marketing<\/h3>\n<div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 9\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>It\u2019s a common misconception that SMS marketing is illegal. This is false, and any provider that tells you SMS marketing is illegal is wrong. However, there are regulations you must follow to send permission-based SMS marketing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 9\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<ul>\n<li>CAN-SPAM Act of 2003<em> (signed into law by President George W.

Both laws define <em>\u201ccommercial messages as those that primarily advertise or promote a commercial product or service.\u201d <\/em>They require you to do two main things if you want to send marketing text messages to clients:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 20\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 10\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<ul>\n<li>Give adequate notice of what exactly you\u2019re going to be sending &amp; how frequently you plan on doing so<\/li>\n<li>Ask for an opt-in and offer a possibility to opt-out<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>SMS Message Templates<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>We miss you.
