• Create competitions - Invite comments or question answers.
• Send out current information on request - Information can change by date or circumstance whilst your shortcode is public. Used for events or fun promotions.
• Receive orders - Such as take-out food orders, taxis, reservations.
• Publish contact information you can easily manage - use on advertising and vehicle livery - get enquiries without interruptions - easily transfer contact from person to person - no need to make your mobile numbers public which de-values your business image and invites unwanted cold calls.
