We completely agree. With mobile devices growing more sophisticated and consumers relying on their phones to accomplish every day tasks (i.e. apartment hunting), For Rent Media Solutions not only offers text messaging packages for our clients, but we have also launched a mobile website for apartment seekers to find basic information that’s on ForRent.com. Text messaging has become the dominant force in mobile communication. And according to M:Metrics, 68 percent of U.S. mobile subscribers age 18-24 regularly send and receive text messages. M:Metrics also reports that seven percent of mobile subscribers respond to short codes placed in advertisements or other media. So this is definitely a prime channel for apartment marketing to travel.
