Denver, Colorado, March 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TextUs, today announced the release of its eagerly anticipated 2024 State of SMS Engagement Report. This comprehensive analysis offers unmatched insights into the evolving landscape of business communication, revealing the efficacy of SMS in driving engagement and enhancing prospect, customer, candidate and employee connections.

The report's findings spotlight the pivotal role of SMS in achieving elevated engagement rates across various industries, outperforming traditional channels such as email, telephone calls, and direct mail. Notably, the data reveals an impressive 80% median response rate for SMS, markedly higher than other mediums. This high engagement level underscores the effectiveness of SMS in reaching audiences, particularly in applications like workforce management, recruitment, sales, and marketing.
