SMS messaging offers some very interesting possibilities when it comes to organizing trade fairs, exhibitions and events. In a sector that often involves contracting and coordinating large teams of temporary staff at short notice, it allows you to save considerable money and time on both producing and promoting the event.

Sending bulk messages makes planning easier in every sense. SMS can help you to advertise for staff, provide them with information on the responsibilities and conditions of the job, send out the roster and company guidelines to follow etc.

Using SMS messaging

Using SMS messaging also reduces expenditure, as you won’t need to make hundreds of phone calls to disseminate important information. Using SMS to organize events are going to become increasingly popular with event planners, who can send out direct and unambiguous messages to staff, suppliers and attendees.  

This tool reduces the risk of misunderstandings, which in the large events and trade fairs sector, can quickly lead to chaos.

SMS encourages the sending of messages that are short, practical and clear, and also arouses greater interest in users than a conventional message through any other messaging app, such as email. They are stored and remain on the phone, so if the team has any doubts they can consult the information immediately.  

SMS for events
