Why SMS-Based Capture Matters
SMS isn't just convenient, it's the most effective channel for event engagement
Works Offline
Venue internet is notoriously unreliable, but SMS works on cell networks, not WiFi.
Stays Engaged
SMS conversations are more engaging than static form pages that attendees abandon.
Instant Booking
Follow-up emails get lost in inboxes, but meetings get confirmed before they walk away.
