Let’s talk about a problem every business faces: customer communication that falls flat.
Emails get buried in crowded inboxes. SMS messages feel outdated and impersonal. And let’s be honest—most customers don’t have the time or patience to engage with clunky, one-way communication.
But what if there was a better way? A way to connect with your customers that’s visual, interactive, and downright delightful?
Enter Rich Communication Services (RCS).
It’s not just an upgrade to SMS—it’s a complete overhaul of how businesses communicate.
But before we dive into the magic of RCS, let’s take a quick look at how it stacks up against traditional SMS and MMS.
As you can see, RCS blows SMS and MMS out of the water. It’s not just about sending messages—it’s about creating rich, interactive experiences that customers actually want to engage with.
Here’s the thing: Your customers 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 to engage with you, but they’re tired of boring, one-way communication.
74% of customers are more likely to engage with a brand through RCS.
People are 35 times more likely to read an RCS message than an email.
And 80% of users find rich messaging “appealing.”
Why?
Because RCS isn’t just text—it’s an experience. Think high-res images, videos, interactive buttons, and even suggested replies that guide users effortlessly through the conversation. It’s like having a personal assistant built into your messaging app.
And here’s the kicker:
90% of what the brain processes is visual information. RCS taps into that by delivering rich, visual content that grabs attention and keeps it.
Let’s break it down. RCS isn’t just about looking pretty—it’s about creating meaningful connections that drive results. Here’s how:
Ever get a text from an unknown number and immediately think, “Is this spam?” RCS solves that. With branded and verified business account, your messages come through with your logo and a checkmark of authenticity. It’s like saying, “Hey, it’s really us!”—and instantly building trust.
Did they get it? Did they read it? With RCS, you’ll know. Delivery and read receipts give you the confidence that your message landed—and give you the data to follow up effectively.
Long texts? Boring. But a rich card with a stunning image, a catchy title, a clear description, and suggested replies? Now we’re talking. RCS lets you pack your messages with media, buttons, and calls-to-action that drive higher engagement!
