Help: Worldwide SMS Campaign agency/aggregator required

By on September 7, 2009 in Services

I had this email in today from a reader looking for some assistance.

Have a read:

I’m currently contracting into a large global email esp – one of their global clients has requested help with sms campaigns – across US, Latin America, EMEA and Asia pac.

Can you recommend any agency/software provider that might be able to help?

I’ve been in touch with 2ergo (lacked the global reach needed) already.

Cheers

Who do you suggest?

    mBlox has got really good reach, might be worth a try.

    Why not give us a call at OnePoint Mobile surveys we have global reach for sms campaigns as well as sms and wap surveys on mobile.

    There isn't a global aggregator for sms. There are large players by region so most likely you need to coordinate with 3 to 4 of them to have global coverage.

    I think I know the solution. It's called Call2Service and it has the first true global reach. Check it out at http://eyeline.mobi/technologies/eyeline-call2s….

    Hi Ivan,

    If you're calling an international number, are you still only charged if the call actually connects? Issues I can imagine happening… not all plans allow calls to overseas numbers, furthermore what happens if the user calls from a landline, or if their number is withheld, or can't for whatever reason be detected.. Theoretically a work around to global inbound comms, but a more sensible approach might be to just use a long number, and accept that many users will have to pay an international rate to send to it!

    usually found you needed to go with two or three to get the reach
    mblox
    2ergo
    mxtelecom

    Ewan – just a thought. Rather than the world and his wife jump in, perhaps it's worth getting a little more clarity from the reader on what exactly they require. They mentioned 2ergo lacked the global reach – would this be down to lack of shortcode coverage, or perhaps bulk SMS reach?

    Whilst every man and his dog seems to have an outbound SMS solution to reach umpteen million countries, it's a completely different matter when you want things like long numbers, shortcodes, and (quite importantly) something that's going to tick the boxes when it comes to reliability, throughput and reach.

    Hi Ewan … one of my clients, RelayStation, would be suitable. Happy to be the contact point. Best, Hugh

    There are minimal issues with the numbers. Basically we are talking mobile phones here, thus any UK number will do and works for our clients. The call is not charged because there is no voice connection. OK, you wanna try yourself? Call +35-315-26-29-28. Choose 1 or 2 when a menu is delivered.
