1) Instant contact
Over eighty one million people in Ireland own a mobile phone, and carry it
with them on their person regularly. Mobile messaging gives you the ability
to put your message directly into their hand, and once sent it reaches them
instantly. You can therefore change your message according to what time of day
it is, or what the weather is doing, or respond to world events. This kind of
direct contact with your customers should not be overlooked.
2) Inexpensive
Sending text message on bulk is relatively inexpensive compared to traditional forms of advertising. Tthe price of a credit ranges from 0.044 to 0.088 Euro based on the how much you buy and how many credits you use.

These are just two example applications which work particularly well with this medium.
