You’re sending thousands of bulk SMS every month. You see the delivery reports, but you don’t see the sales. The open rates are decent, but the click-throughs are a trickle. You’re paying for every message, but the return feels smaller each quarter. What if the problem isn’t your offer, but the medium itself? What if you could send messages that customers actually want to interact with—messages with buttons, images, and videos—and pay less for the privilege? That’s not a future promise; it’s the reality of RCS Business Messaging with CTA buttons in India today.
The Hidden Cost of Your Current Bulk SMS
Let’s talk numbers. Your traditional SMS campaign costs X paise per message. It’s a line of plain text. No branding, no image, no clickable button. To get a customer to act, you’re relying on them to read that text, remember a short code or a long URL, open a browser, and type it in manually. At every step, you lose them. The result? You need to send more messages to hit your targets, burning through your budget with diminishing returns. You’re not paying for communication; you’re paying for hope.
Enter RCS: Better Engagement, Lower Price Tag
This is the part most Indian businesses get wrong. They see Rich Communication Services (RCS) with its rich branding, high-res logos, carousels, and interactive Call-to-Action (CTA) buttons, and assume it must be a premium, expensive service. Here’s the truth that’s transforming marketing budgets: RCS messaging often costs less per message than traditional bulk SMS. Let that sink in. You are not choosing between cost and quality. You are choosing to pay less for a vastly superior product.
Why RCS CTA Buttons Are a Conversion Machine
The CTA button is the star of the show. In a standard SMS, your CTA is buried in text. In an RCS message, it’s a prominent, clickable button sitting beautifully under your branded header and compelling copy. It reduces the customer’s effort from 5 steps (read, remember, open browser, type, go) to 1 step (tap). This frictionless path is why RCS messages with CTA buttons consistently see click-through rates 3-5x higher than traditional SMS.
Why Indian Businesses Are Switching (And Why You Should Too)
The early adopters aren’t just the big players. Savvy SMBs and growing enterprises across India are making the switch because the math is undeniable. It’s not about flashy tech; it’s about the bottom line. When you can send a visually rich message with a “Track Order” or “Apply Now” button for less than the cost of a plain text SMS, and that message performs 300% better, the decision is simple. Your competitors are already exploring this. They are lowering their cost-per-acquisition while you’re still paying more for inferior results.
The biggest lie in business messaging? That rich media costs more. RCS gives you images, buttons, carousels – all at rates lower than plain text SMS. I’ve seen businesses cut their messaging costs by 40% while tripling conversions.
