Customer Story

Vodafone.

How Vodafone worked with Webex CPaaS Solutions and TMW to deploy its first major RCS campaigns and saw response rates soar up to 25%.

Vodafone is one of the world’s leading mobile network operators and is the first UK network provider to support RCS messaging across Android mobile devices. While the mobile operator was experienced in using SMS and MMS for marketing and CRM communications, they were keen to meet customer expectations for seamless two-way digital experiences. With RCS, Vodafone saw a way to deliver experiences that are both familiar and innovative, ultimately helping to distinguish the brand’s communications.

Working with Vodafone’s creative agency, TMW, we deployed promotional RCS campaigns around the bank holiday weekend, Father’s Day and 5G. These campaigns utilized key features of RCS including buttons, carousels, rich imagery and ability to track response rates. To monitor the campaigns’ success – and to ensure those without RCS enabled devices still received the offers – we also ran the campaigns across SMS and MMS channels.
