Restaurants
"Text messaging helped keep our doors open." - paraphrased from various Smoothie King operators during peak of recession in 2009
"Using a new program is daunting, but you've been there every step of the way, and it's certainly appreciated. Your client service is second to none!" - Meredith Wenz, Auntie Anne's corporate marketing
"OTAir has been a huge help in our success and working with them on a daily basis has been an asset to our company." - Capt. Brien Spina, Owner, Capt. Brien's Seafood
"After trying all types of mass marketing, I found OTAir to be the quickest, hardest-hitting, and most effective form I have ever seen. With 100% of the recipients viewing our ad, it's a no-brainer we use OTAir for all our marketing needs." - Rick Bruner, GM, Funny Bone Comedy Club Richmond & Virginia Beach
There's really no need for us to add anything else in promoting text messaging and the OTAir's mobile messaging solutions for restaurants. The words of just a small sampling of our clients speak for themselves. So then, let us tell you what you can expect from our solution and how to apply to your marketing and operational communications.
- Fishbowl Marketing Integration...if you are a client of Fishbowl, our systems talk and that affords you enhanced capabilities with both your mobile and email marketing efforts; not a client yet, then please allow us to introduce you to a Fishbowl online marketing specialist for a virtually one-stop and uniquely best-of-both-worlds solution to all your digital marketing needs (and if you must use a different email marketing solution, we can integrate with them too)
- Flexible, Inexpensive Plans...whether you represent one restaurant location or thousands, we have a solution for you, in fact we have a few to choose from to best meet your needs and all plans are month-to-month; your typical cost to your best customers who have opted-in to hear from you...$0.02-$0.04 an outgoing message (ALL incoming are FREE with OTAir)
- Free Service and Support...the OTAir system was designed and built by us...it's not software we bought and we're not reselling another solution; more importantly, we are not just a DIY option...sure our interface is very easy to use on your own, but we're very available to provide free and extensive assistance with your mobile messaging efforts
- Data Ownership and Security...the mobile numbers and email addresses you collect, as well as, the recorded text interactions you exchange with customers and employees are your data...no other clients have access to it and it is not used by OTAir for any purpose other than to provide support, monitor for approved use, and compile trend info to improve service
- Customizable Interactions...we have had restaurants use text simply to collect email addresses for newsletters, others collect reservation info, some distribute work schedules to hourly staff by text, others inform staff of incoming orders, a few have used advanced capabilities like having customers text in unique redemption codes printed on their receipt, or issue random offers with variable expiration dates to consumers that text in
- Speed To Market...using a shared short code or a dedicated long code, OTAir can have your mobile messaging capabilities live within hours; using text is not complicated at all, so there is no need to wait for that perfect marketing moment...simply inform us of your needs, we've done this longer than most mobile companies and have thousands of experiences guiding our assistance to you

Groupon, LivingSocial and Google Offers may be all the rage, but in reality, those services put a lot of irrelevant offers in front of consumers. One only needs so many discounted, pre-purchased visits to local spas. OTAir's text messaging solution is extremely targeted to your best customers, because those are the ones who will opt to receive what you want to say directly to their phones. That's also a significant advantage over social media which has no guarantee of being accessed quickly on your customers' mobile devices. Read more...
Text messaging and traditional media are great partners. Individuals tend to first be made aware of mobile engagement opportunities with organizations by television ads, radio commercials, product packaging, magazine ads, newspaper content, etc. In return, text makes the traditional medium instantly interactive. We take the symbiotic relationship even further for magazines and newspapers with our unique "Best of..." voting enhancement solution. Read more...
