Roseville, CA - April 07, 2020: Kukui Corporation, the leading provider of integrated marketing automation and business analytics solutions for the automotive industry today, announced the immediate availability of the Kukui Text Connect Platform. In consideration of the current COVID-19 situation, repair shops that sign up now will have full access to the platform for free until June 30, 2020. Click Here to sign up or find out more.

A text message lets you engage your audience instantly and elicit an immediate response. And, as the preferred method of communication for consumers, text messaging is a perfect channel for businesses that want or need to get their customers' attention right away. In our current circumstances, repair shops need to stay in touch with their community to let them know they are open and ready to help them with all their service needs.

The new Kukui Text Connect Platform consists of several product modules focused on supporting text-based messaging between the shop and customers at various points in the customer journey. Text Reviews allows businesses to solicit feedback in the form of a Google Review about their recent repair service. Text Messaging provides a channel for one-to-one, text-based communications to a single customer. Text Marketing supports campaign based "text-blasts" to multiple opt-in customers with special offers, announcements, and other messages that will increase customer engagement and retention.

"Given the state of the world today, it is more important than ever for small businesses to be able to market to their customers via text. Our text marketing feature allows shops to have the confidence that they're legally marketing via text, with multiple ways to encourage opt-ins," said Heather Myers, Chief Product Officer for Kukui. "I'm very excited to state that this is just the beginning of our texting platform, and I am looking forward to continuing to enhance it further and to provide our Text Platform clients a full-text marketing experience.
