We recently discovered that SurveyGizmo surveys work quite well on mobile phones. Go figure! So this week’s big new feature is the ability to trigger & schedule mobile text messages from a survey. In addition, we have added a new survey template for designing mobile surveys called the “Mobile Survey Template.” Take a look:

Sending Mobile Messages from a Survey

Many of our users have sent email auto-responders in response to a survey. They have notified sales people, sent thank you emails and informed teachers about evaluation scores powered by SurveyGizmo. Now our users can trigger text messages the same way!

Here is a real-world example: Your sales team is running an informative session at a busy expo. Two weeks prior, you send out an email to all your customers urging them to pre-register for this information session. The registration page is powered by SurveyGizmo — which not only captures lead information for the sales team, but it also schedules a mobile reminder for that prospect!

At the expo (two weeks later) your prospects all receive text messages on their mobile phones telling them the session will begin in 1 hour! That will drive traffic to your sales team remotely!

Mobile Surveys

Here’s a template survey for you to create your own mobile quizzes, surveys and polls. Just click on “Create Survey,” and then choose “Mobile Survey Template” from the drop down. This will create a survey setup to be a mobile opinion poll. If you have a mobile phone (with a web browser), you can test it for yourself below or send it to a friend:

This form will send you a Text Message with an invite to take the mobile survey.

We look forward to seeing what everyone does with this new survey channel! If you have comments or suggestions please let us know. (There is a comment form right under this post). As always, your requests drive most of the improvements to SurveyGizmo!

Cheers!
