Collecting a database of mobile numbers is the perfect way for you to communicate with clients, customers and even 
your own staff. However, it’s important to keep your SMS list clean and tidy in order for you to make the
most of it.
The following tips will help you to maintain your mobile database…
Update mobile records and remove unused numbers
Individuals often change their mobile number or stop using certain numbers on a daily basis. Because of this, it’s important to ask your clients and customers whether their data has changed and update the new information if this is required. Otherwise, communicating via SMS to mobiles that are no longer used can be a waste of time, money and effort.
Examine any feedback you receive
