Real-Time Push Notifications

People check their mobile phones well over a hundred times every day. That is about every ten minutes if I am counting well. Push notifications are a communication channel built into mobile apps including mobile wallets. Push notifications are delivered near-instantly and boast one of the best open rates. And not only that. Push notifications allow you to reach your customers at any moment of the day. Without relying on them checking for an email or browsing social media. Their lock screen is a direct line that is available almost 24/7.

Push notifications are a must-have component to any communication strategy of a small business. They are cost-effective, scalable, and outright effective. However, it requires from you some care in knowing when to reach out, and how frequently you do so. The timing of your push notification is more important compared to email. You should design them to aid and assist and to be useful and digestible at a glance. They are also immediately alerting your customer so you don’t want to be overloading people with exposure to your business. You should make sure your push notifications are both short and meaningful.
