Facebook was down for 6 hours on Monday and businesses across the globe lost $240K by estimates?!

Lauren Tickner, aka Instagram marketing influencer with 140K followers aka Forbes #1 Business Coach, issued a PUBLIC WARNING last night:

“IF YOU DO NOT OWN YOUR DATA YOU ARE A SLAVE TO THE ALGORITHM!!!

While Instagram was down you could have generated more business than ever.”

News flash: You’re no slave!

When you take an omnichannel approach and focus on growing lists that you OWN (hello, email and SMS contacts) you can reach your leads and customers. ON. DEMAND.

OmniChat is the answer. Drive your Instagram and Facebook contacts into your email and SMS capture funnels with OmniChat.

  • Grow your SMS subscribers from Instagram, Facebook, and your website
  • Blast SMS subscribers on-demand
  • Increase sales through SMS sales and marketing automations
