And when you choose to send&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.trumpia.com\/product\/omni-channel\/mms\">MMS&nbsp;marketing<\/a> messages rather than just texts, that makes your conversations more engaging.&nbsp;In this guide, you&#8217;ll learn the basics on <strong>how to send MMS text messages<\/strong> for your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trumpia.com\/sms-marketing\">text marketing<\/a> campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>How to Send MMS Text Messages<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily for you, Trumpia <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trumpia.com\/product\/omni-channel\/mms-messaging\">MMS messaging software<\/a> makes sending MMS content very easy and user-friendly. <br><br>There are two ways that you can primarily send an MMS on Trumpia, just like you would on your mobile device. You can either:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Attach a file directly to the message itself, which you are able to navigate easily on our brand new UI.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Or, attach a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.trumpia.com\/product\/core-features\/compliant-link-shortener\">link<\/a>&nbsp;to it that will lead your subscriber to a separate website where they can access the media content.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a video tutorial on how you can attach both images and videos in our MMS marketing platform:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Text Images or Videos Using Trumpia&#039;s MMS Messaging Software\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bLpB-O0blJA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3>Attaching Files Vs. Using Links<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the two, we highly recommend sending the MMS content as a link for a variety of reasons. While attaching a file is not a bad choice, creating a link and&nbsp;integrating&nbsp;our software with platforms like Google Drive may be to your benefit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Drive is able to store a lot of media content without compressing the video, lowering the quality, and cutting out parts of it. You can rest assured that your content will be the highest quality possible by sending it as a link. Also, keep in mind that there are size limits when you attach a file to a text message. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That can be easily solved by using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trumpia.com\/product\/automation\/integrations\">Trumpia integration<\/a> with Google Drive. All you have to do is upload that file to your Drive first, and send that link through Trumpia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Why Use MMS Messaging<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>But why are communication mediums such as videos more engaging than text messages in some situations? We at Trumpia believe that videos accomplish a lot of different things when it comes to captivating subscribers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Videos create credibility and brand awareness:<\/strong> consumers are able to visibly and tangible see the values and culture of your company rather than just reading it being described.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Videos increase overall web traffic:<\/strong> people are more likely to&nbsp;click&nbsp;on a video and other media content because of how easy it is to just listen or to watch.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Videos are easy to share:<\/strong> think about the last time you watched a video because your friend or family member shared it to you through text. It is so easy to get your content out there because of how advanced texting has become.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Useful Tips for MMS Marketing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2713<\/strong> When choosing to use SMS Texting in order to send videos, we highly recommend considering specific use cases and scenarios that deem it appropriate. Like all things, moderation is best, and sometimes sending a lot of videos can also cause consumers to not want to engage with all of your content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2713<\/strong> Sending MMS in strategic times can make the campaign feel more special. Also, consider the fact that you are most like a business, corporation, or any kind of company where professionalism is very important. You want to use videos and other media content for your advantage, rather than just casual use cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2713<\/strong> Try using videos in order to send guides, instructional videos, reviews, or even in order to showcase products and services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2713<\/strong> Finally, one of the best and most creative ways you can use MMS is to capture your company\u2019s brand and vision &#8211; send content that shows what your company is all about. This is very important for building trust and an overall relationship with your subscribers. People want authentic content and companies &#8211; and you can show that you care by communicating that with them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start sending MMS content today in order to make your SMS texting campaigns more dynamic and fun! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to know more about how to use MMS messaging for different industries, read our <a href=\"https:\/\/trumpia.com\/blog\/sms-marketing-guide\/\">Ultimate SMS marketing guide<\/a>!
