“SMS doesn’t ask for attention—it demands it. For a dormant sportsbook base, that direct line was the difference between obscurity and re-engagement.”
The campaign was a decisive success, proving that even the coldest segments can be reactivated with the right message, on the right channel, at the right time.
We build data-driven, channel-specific reactivation campaigns that turn cold lists into active revenue.
