March for The Arts Group

Hey everyone, I’ve been running a few SMS blast campaigns for my small business, and I’m trying to figure out the best time of day to send messages for higher open rates and responses.

I know SMS open rates are generally high, but timing still seems to make a difference. Some say mid-morning (10–11 AM) works best, while others recommend late afternoon or even early evenings.

I’d love to hear from you:

• What time/day has worked best for your SMS blast campaigns?

• Have you noticed differences in engagement between weekdays and weekends?

• Any time slots you avoid completely?

Appreciate any input or data you’ve got. Let’s help each other optimize our campaigns!

Thanks 🙌
