SMS marketing: 8 examples and the legal rules in France
Templates and rules to know
A commercial SMS is most often read within minutes of arriving: that's its strength, and the reason it's strictly regulated. Here are typical wordings and the framework to master before any campaign. Note that anonymous, manual sending isn't suited to prospecting.

Our tips
A single offer, a single deadline, a single action
SMS that convert rest on three elements: your proposal, its deadline and the action expected from the recipient. Within 160 characters, everything else is just noise.
The legal framework is anything but optional
In France, prospecting by SMS requires the recipient's prior consent (GDPR), a clearly identified sender and a free opt-out method ("STOP"). Sending is banned between 8pm and 8am, on Sundays and public holidays.
Good to know before sending
SMS Anonyme is a personal sending service with a hidden number: one message at a time, with no automation or bulk broadcasting. Anonymity protects your number from the recipient, not from the law: every send is logged (IP included) and can be handed to the authorities on request. For a commercial campaign, use a professional platform and comply with French regulations: prior consent (GDPR), an opt-out method ("STOP"), sender identification, no sending between 8pm and 8am, on Sundays and public holidays.
