VoDa Offers Two Texting Services Designed To Help Small Businesses Win
Everyone reads their texts. We help you send them.
Reach large groups with SMS marketing or connect one-on-one with two-way messaging.
Simple Texting:
A VoIP phone system that allows businesses to send and receive SMS/MMS messages, automated responses. This service is for texting to one number.​
Two-Way Texting:
Two-way texting creates a seamless, frustration-free experience for your
customers—while also saving your team time and increasing sales. Unlike one-way messaging, which only allows you to send messages out, two-way texting opens the door for real conversations.
How Does Two-Way Texting Work?
With two-way messaging, you can send and receive texts instantly, providing personalized help that builds trust and loyalty. This is known as conversational support.
Many providers only offer basic SMS tools, limiting you to one-sided mass texts updates or promotions. But by not giving your customers the ability to respond, you risk frustrating your audience and missing valuable opportunities to connect.
By using a platform that supports two-way texting, you’re not just keeping up with customer expectations—you’re exceeding them.
