Check out this recent SMS promotion we did for Starbucks:

Starbucks - Good Vibe Messenger

Promosis collaborated with The Big Spaceship agency to develop, administer, and manage this mobile messaging promotion. The program offered Starbucks customers a choice of positive themes, and then followed up that selection with a short affirming message for four mornings. The messages also included links to a Starbucks-specific Headspace communication and offers to both delight their customers and motivate use and adoption of the Starbucks mobile app and Rewards program.
