Fitness & Outdoor
See how fitness & outdoor brands on Postscript are using SMS to convert shoppers, increase lifetime value, and improve customer support.
Turn hesitant shoppers into raving fans
Getting shoppers to the first purchase is the most important step. But after signing up to your SMS list, they might still need a bit of convincing.
Browse abandonment, cart abandonment, or welcome series automations are all opportunities to incentivize customers with the right offers.
Crush your product launch and sales targets
The almost-instantaneous open rates of SMS make it the perfect channel to announce your latest product launch or flash sale.
Limited edition collection? Send a text to your most loyal customers first and give them exclusive early access.
Let subscribers be the first to know about restocks
One of the perks of your SMS program should be sending back-in-stock announcements to subscribers before anyone else. They’ll be happy to get their hands on your best-sellers before they sell out again!
When an item is out of stock, use a custom keyword that people can text to join your waitlist.
Build loyalty with educational content and rewards
Turn a one-time purchase into a loyal customer through post-purchase education and loyalty rewards.
Use post-purchase automations to send product use and care instructions. Take it a step further by sending promotions and reminders about your loyalty reward programs over SMS.

"Postscript has helped us elevate our customer experience. We don’t just use SMS to send campaigns and make sales, but also to educate customers about training and educate people who haven’t converted about why their dog needs our product."
