Renting an SMS customer list is a highly recommended practice for businesses that use SMS for prospecting. To prospect effectively through this channel, you need the right contacts. When a company relies on outdated or untargeted SMS contacts, it risks wasting both time and money. This is why renting an SMS customer list is so valuable.

Of course, SMS list rental offers many other benefits. It is in a company's best interest to learn as much as possible about this increasingly popular practice. In this guide, Octopush provides everything you need to know about renting an SMS database.

First, why rent an SMS customer list?

Above all, keep in mind that renting an SMS customer list means renting a database of mobile numbers. This database contains prospect contacts from all over France, to whom you can send SMS messages with the goal of converting them.

Renting a database is ideal for:

• Acquiring new customers by sending SMS messages to prospect numbers
• Potentially increasing revenue streams through the acquisition of new customers
• Increasing traffic to your website
• Announcing events and promotions to your customers or targeted prospects

In short, renting an SMS customer list is intended for companies that do not yet have a database of numbers or that wish to acquire more customers.

In our view, a database is useless if it isn't personalized. The very point of renting a database means having access to contacts who are potential leads for your business.

The key here is targeting your prospects. At Octopush, we make sure to create a custom SMS database for you that is qualified and targeted according to your specific criteria.

Where do our rental customer lists come from?

The affordably priced customer lists that we offer for rent come from commercial partners, including insurance companies, mutual funds, major retailers, and e-commerce sites. This explains why our contact network consists of 35 million entries.

We reiterate, however, that even though our database is massive, all prospect numbers are reliable. As a reminder, they are registered with the CNIL and are subject to regular updates regarding unsubscribe requests. Not to mention that our prospect phone numbers are also opt-in certified.

Buying or renting an SMS customer list?

In our opinion, renting SMS lists is more advantageous for prospecting. While buying allows you to own the contacts permanently, they are not updated. According to statistics, the average French person changes mobile operators every 23 months. Therefore, after that period, many numbers in your database may become obsolete.

Note, however, thatbuying an SMS customer list can still offer some advantages, particularly permanent access to the purchased information. At Octopush, we also offer the option to purchase them. The choice is yours.
