Pypestream, the leading business-to-consumer messaging platform, announced a partnership today with the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG), the top technology industry association in the state, serving more than 30,000 members through regional chapters in Metro Atlanta, Athens, Augusta, Columbus, Macon/Middle Georgia, and Savannah. As a part of the partnership, Pypestream will advise TAG members on the opportunities with mobile messaging to improve real-time customer service and communication. TAG will also adopt the Pypestream messaging platform to communicate with its 30,000 members.
"Mobile messaging has quickly emerged as the platform of choice for consumers and a priority channel for businesses,” said Tino Mantella, TAG President and CEO. “We’re excited to partner with Pypestream to have them share insights on the opportunities with mobile messaging at upcoming TAG events. Starting this fall, we will also begin using the Pypestream platform to communicate updates to TAG members. The real-time, conversational nature of chat offers tremendous opportunity to interact with members and we look forward to seeing what conversations happen as a result.”
Since launching in Dec 2015, more than 14,000 businesses have adopted Pypestream to improve their customer communication. In contrast to some social messaging apps and platforms, Pypestream ensures privacy and authentication, empowering businesses to communicate securely with their customers in real time. Through 'Pypes' listed in a searchable catalogue, businesses are provided with a direct connection to their customers for increased engagement, automated customer service, improved processes and in-message payments.
“We’re thrilled to announce this partnership with TAG and act as a sponsor and resource for TAG members at upcoming events,” said Pypestream Chief Customer Officer Donna Peeples. “Adoption of mobile messaging platforms, including Pypestream, has opened up a new channel of communication for businesses with customers. Now with the development of chatbots, brands have an opportunity to further automate and improve real-time customer support. We’re excited to work with TAG community as they tap into mobile messaging in a bigger way.”
