Promoting your tele-town hall

February 14, 2025

How marketing your Town Hall will increase engagement

A great way to connect directly with clients or constituents is to host a tele-town hall. This platform allows you to personally convey your message while leaving room for questions and direct talking with your audience.

If you are considering using a tele-town hall, Watershed Messaging Services would help tailor a marketing strategy to promote the event. We would help make sure your audience knows about the upcoming tele-town hall well in advance. Use email, social media, your website, and other channels to invite people to join, highlighting the key topics or speakers to spark interest.

Tele-town halls are not just about talking at your audience. Encourage participation by letting attendees ask questions, participate in polls, or share their thoughts. This creates a two-way conversation and makes participants feel heard and valued.

Before and after the tele-town hall, Watershed Messaging would help coordinate a text to your audience to make sure they have all of the information of calling in, as well as a thank you note with follow-up information.

The Power of Mass Texting for Businesses: How to Effectively Use SMS Marketing

By Bethany Frievalt • January 24, 2025

Mass texting (also known as SMS marketing) involves sending a text message to a large group of recipients simultaneously. Unlike traditional emails or social media posts, SMS messages are usually read within minutes of receipt, making them one of the most immediate ways to communicate with customers. Mass texting services typically allow you to send personalized messages, segment your audience, automate responses, and track performance—all through a simple interface. According to studies, SMS boasts an impressive open rate of 98%. In comparison, email open rates hover around 20%. The immediacy of text messages—being delivered directly to a customer’s phone—makes it nearly impossible to miss. Text messages are read within minutes, which means your audience can receive your messages almost immediately. Whether you’re sending a time-sensitive promotion or an important update, SMS ensures that your message reaches your audience in real-time. Mass texting doesn’t mean generic messages. With modern SMS platforms, you can personalize messages based on customer data. Addressing recipients by name, offering personalized discounts, or sending location-specific promotions makes the message feel tailored and relevant. Utilizing Watershed Messaging Services to increase your use of mass texting is a great way to improve engagement and have your message seen.
