Topic: Distributing Surveys via SMS
Even though mobile optimization is a common practice among survey creators, a commonly overlooked form of distribution is SMS.
The two forms of SMS distribution available on Qualtrics include sending a link to the survey to be taken on a mobile browser and a 2-way interaction where respondents text their replies to each question. This distribution method uses phone numbers instead of emails, but other aspects such as scheduling messages, reminders, and viewing distribution history are similar to email distribution.
If you’ve been seeing a decrease in survey completion through emails and social media, it might be time to consider a more effective way to reach your audience and collect on-the-go pocket feedback!
How to find this feature:
- Go to your Survey Project.
- Go to the Distributions tab.
- Click the Text Message (SMS) tab.
- Click Send a Message.
