While MMS can include multimedia

problem faced by SMS/MMS is that
they don’t recognize the location of
the customer (LBS=Location Based
Services), therefore can’t send
location-based information. BMS is
a Permission Based Service, where
the customer has the option to
decline or accept the message. If
the message is accepted, the chances
of being read are 99.9%. By using
BMS, you know exactly where your
customer is, therefore you send
special promotions or last minute
offers. Last but not least, BMS
transfer is free.
