Thanks to our partnership with Australia’s #1 SMS provider MessageMedia, we’re now able to offer you SMS messaging as part of Memnet’s all-in-one membership, subscription, CRM and event management solution. SMS is an effective tool when communicating with members, event attendees and communities.
Why Use SMS
SMS messages get opened 98% of the time and 90% of text message communications get opened within 90 seconds. When you need to have your message seen, SMS is the way to go.
What you get when you start using SMS with Memnet
Send bulk communications with members easily and efficiently
You don’t even need to leave the platform to do this. Use Memnet’s quick Message Wizard feature to switch to SMS and see the results.
Enhance any event communications with SMS
Use Memnet’s specific event communications feature to create and send SMS campaigns on:
- Event invites
- Promotional & corporate packages
- General communications
- Logistic changes
- Event check-ins
- Event reminders
- What’s coming up or event agendas
TOP TIP: If you are planning to send out a lot of event invites with long URLs, use MessageMedia’s URL shortener to meet the 160 character limit per message. It also looks better. Talk to our us via email or give us a quick call.
Time or schedule your SMS campaigns and messages well in advance
For those wanting to save themselves extra workload, use Memnet’s scheduling feature to set up timed SMS push outs. Useful for membership renewals, late invoice payments and much more.

Send email and SMS simultaneously

Track and trace your SMS deliveries – either from MessageMedia or Memnet’s web portal.
You can monitor and assess your SMS campaigns to see who it was sent to as well as whether it was successfully delivered. Use Memnet’s ‘Validate my number’ feature to make sure that each member’s phone number is valid.

This is particularly useful for:

TOP TIP: When selling tickets for events or merchandising, if a member chooses to raise an invoice and pay later, you can set up automatic reminders to pay through SMS.
