10 Reasons Why You Should Have Started Using Telegram For Business Yesterday

No matter how many messages you send a day, it will cost you nothing. There are no limits and it's a huge plus of Telegram comparing to other messengers. More than that, text, image, video and audio formats are available here. Which means your imagination isn't restricted with any boundaries and your marketing plan may include those materials you think are the most appropriate to promote your company, whether it's a song, video presentation or a logo-image.

If you work (and you probably do) with different groups of items or customers, group segmentation allows you to save time on mailouts. No need to choose customers manually, no need to write long texts with notes "only for premium customers" or something. Sort prospects according to their interests, age, regions or income level and Telegram service will send messages to particular groups without delays.

Encourage users to take part in your brand promotion. Ask them to take selfies in your cafe, near your shop or with your goods, post photos on social networks and send them back to you for a reward. It's almost free advertising, that works just like the radio. Customers like such campaigns because they're fun, easy to do and they get a prize in the end. Yet, before starting your promotional action ponder who your target audience and customers are. Are they Telegram users? If they are middle-aged office workers, I doubt they will be interested in your offer.

Users, especially modern ones, tend more to text instead of to make phone calls.

How safe is Telegram? Security is something the Telegram team is proud of. They claim that there's no way to crack it. And they even challenge people to do it.

Telegram secret chat is an exclusive feature that empowers a chat based on end-to-end-encryption for highly-secure conversations. The process is performed with the help of double-layered encryption.

The correspondence history is kept on a device's memory and not on the serves, so when one user deletes a message on his device it disappears on the other as well.

Is another Telegram security feature. A user sets a period of time after which the message disappears, so when a recipient gets and reads a message, it vanishes. The feature can be useful if some documentation or secret internal information is being sent.
