Emotive: SMS Marketing

There are SMS platforms that send broadcast messages (a la email blasts), and then there are Conversational Messaging apps like Emotive. It has changed our business and provides a consistent 35X ROI! Create new connections with your shoppers, and take your revenue to new heights. We love Emotive!

Emotive has made it very easy to reach out to our SMS list with great segmenting options, awesome support (who will even write your texts for you), & an intuitive user interface. When Emotive created its own pop-up for gathering phone numbers and email addresses from customers, JC and the support team took care of the entire migration for us. This is definitely a good option for businesses using SMS marketing.

I was disappointed that they don't use their Attribution software for more accurate analytics on the SMS side.

We have been partnering with Emotive for our SMS marketing needs for several years now, and our experience has been nothing short of exceptional. Emotive has proven to be a very reliable and effective partner, seamlessly integrating into our marketing strategy with minimal effort required on our end.

Their platform works efficiently in the background, allowing us to focus on other aspects of our business while they handle our SMS campaigns with precision. The ease of management and the outstanding support from their team have made our collaboration smooth and productive.

I highly recommend Emotive for anyone looking for a dependable and efficient SMS marketing solution. They have consistently delivered great results for us, making them an invaluable part of our marketing efforts.

We tried out several smaller platforms and and one larger SMS service before finding Emotive (somehow). It's been great so far. The platform is built out with every feature in mind, and the customer success team is a huge perk. The sales team was also very knowledgable and helpful with the onboarding.

Our revenue from SMS has gone up literally 15x since switching from that larger platform to Emotive. Highly recommend If you're a small brand looking to scale up your SMS. It's worth the investment in my eyes

As a small business owner, I can confidently say Emotive has the worst billing practices I’ve ever dealt with. After missing a payment, they tried charging my card 29 times in one month. Yes, twenty nine. When I finally made a one time manual payment, they took that as permission to keep using that card for future charges, even though it was never saved or authorized for ongoing use.

They brushed it off like it was no big deal and hid behind their contract. No accountability. No ownership.

I get it. Everyone deserves to be paid. I’m a small business too. But this kind of behavior is shady and unprofessional.

I’ve already shared my experience with a business group of over 200,000 members and I’ll keep speaking up. If you're considering using Emotive, think twice. There are better platforms out there that won’t mishandle your payment info or your trust.

Emotive's onboarding experience is second to none. They took the time to understand our specific business goals and tailored their training accordingly. Their support team goes above and beyond, offering creative solutions and always being available to answer our questions.

We have now used both Emotive SMS and their Pixel services. The people there are nice but on two separate occasions Emotive has grossly over promised and under delivered. We were stuck in an SMS contract that took our previous 40x ROI at Post Script SMS services to 2-3x with Emotive. The pricing and contract cost us dearly.

Fast forward years later, Emotive reaches out to have us try their new Pixel service which captures emails and sends abandoned cart messages, this time thankfully no contracts were sent as we have been using Retention.com for this same service but opted to pause and give Emotive a chance to redeem themselves. Our one month trial was an absolute embarrassment and again, cost us thousands in lost revenue.

Never again...

Emotive has been a great hands-on tool that continues to provide our store with the sms results we want to see. The tech integrations have been seamless and timely. My only complaint is that there seem to be a lot of missing features that would be nice to have, but the team is very quick to offer alternative solutions and work on product updates.

We really love using Emotive. It makes SMS marketing super seamless.
Their support and onboarding team is fantastic, they are extremely helpful in ensuring your team is taking full advantage of all of the features to maximize ROI.

Emotive is definitely one of the better SMS platforms we've used (and we've used quite a few). The dashboard has a great layout, and it has all of the features we need to launch successful campaigns. The pre-built flows are super good on their own and easy to customize to your brands needs.

So far everything has been great, but the only feature I would like to see is a cost calculator to show the estimated cost for the campaign before it has been sent.

Great customer support. Always there to hop on a call or send ideas to help grow our brand.
