01 Jun touchSMS for Excel
touchSMS simplifies SMS communication by launching direct integrations with Microsoft products.
Send SMS (text messages) directly from Excel spreadsheets, without the need to import or transfer data into any other platform.
Sydney NSW: touchSMS, experts in the field of mobile communication and conversational marketing, today launched its first of several integrated SMS solutions for Microsoft 365 products. With touchSMS for Excel, users can now export or open an Excel spreadsheet of contacts from any source (databases, CRM or contact management software) and send personalised text messages to an entire list in seconds. No need to import, resave or reformat – send directly from the spreadsheet.
The decision to develop a suite of integrated SMS tools was incited by a shift in communication trends. touchSMS CEO Peter Antoniou says “SMS is still the most trusted and effective means of message delivery available but it’s not just about sending or receiving any more. It’s about being able to have meaningful and informative conversations”. As such, the touchSMS suite of integrations sits within Outlook, Excel and Teams software, enhancing communicative function without leaving the user’s everyday working environment.
With almost as many handsets in circulation as there are people on earth, SMS is perhaps the most widely accepted form of communication available. 98% of text messages are read by their intended recipient within 3 minutes of delivery. The immediacy and rate of successful delivery makes it more effective for reminders, alerts and notifications than email.
The features of touchSMS for Excel:
- Send SMS to a handful or 1000’s contacts directly from your Excel spreadsheet
- Preview messages before sending
- Campaign Summary calculates cost before sending
- Send immediately or Schedule SMS for later date/time
