Wireless Messaging

Wireless Messaging is the “pushing” of information to and from mobile devices, allowing users to receive and send time-sensitive notifications and maintain important contacts while on the move. It includes SMS (Short Message Service), EMS (Enhanced Message Service), and MMS (Multimedia Message Service). SMS involves sending a text-message of up to 140-160 alpha numeric characters to a cell phone or pager, and holds significant advantages over the use of mobile email for sending important information.

Originally devised as an afterthought to notify users of incoming voice mail, SMS has grown to include the sending of ringtones and graphics, as well, and taken on a life of its own. In 2004, the GSM Association reports that over 480 billion SMS were sent throughout the world.

The number of mobile devices in use has exploded (at present, there are in excess of 2 billion mobile phone users), and VANSO’s comprehensive suite of software allows you to easily take advantage of the many benefits of the global wireless world. We provide tools to develop, launch, and report on a variety of mobile elements. These include revenue generating and brand focused Premium SMS interactive marketing programs.
