eProcessing Network Announces Release of ePNTexting

in today's mobile environment, merchants are faced with the challenge of effectively communicating to their existing and potential customers via mobile channels to help increase brand awareness and strengthen customer loyalty. eProcessing Network (www.eProcessingNetwork.com) understands the needs of the small to mid-sized merchant and offers ePNTexting, a low-cost Web-interface solution that allows merchants to send SMS text messages, reminders and alerts to their customers' mobile devices. With the ability to push alpha-numeric messages, store coupons or event reminders, ePNTexting helps merchants increase awareness and meet the needs of customers who are fast embracing both communication and shopping via multiple channels.

Studies show that almost 94% of text messages are read within five minutes ofreceipt, which only reinforces what merchants have known when utilizing traditional communication methods - personalized communications serve as an immediate touch point to the mobile shopper, helping increase customer satisfaction and loyalty.

"Sending text messages as appointment reminders through ePNTexting can help businesses streamline their communication processes and save their staff the time spent making numerous follow-up calls," says Steve Sotis, President of eProcessing Network. "Text messaging can also help the merchant increase the level of customer satisfaction and loyalty by targeting the message to meet the individual needs of the customer."

"ePN understands the needs of the SMBs," adds Bruce Shirey, SVP of Product Development. "That's why we developed ePNTexting as another low-cost solution to help merchants improve their communication channels and enhance the customer experience. ePN strives to provide a full suite of solutions and services to help merchants build a multi-channel strategy that may help them meet or exceed their business goals."
