Do I need consent to text customers?
Yes. Marketing texts require consent, and every message must offer an easy way to opt out. Service messages such as appointment reminders are treated differently.

What sms & text marketing involves
SMS marketing uses text messaging for time-sensitive, high-value communication — appointment reminders, review requests, urgent offers — where the message needs to be seen quickly and consent is in place.
In Torquay that usually means working with hospitality, hotels and holiday accommodation, restaurants and leisure and health and care services, so sms & text marketing here is shaped around the enquiries those businesses actually get — not a template applied to every town in Devon.
Why this matters in Torquay
Torquay is the largest of the three Torbay towns, with an economy dominated by tourism, hospitality and accommodation, alongside healthcare, care services, retail and the trades that support a large housing and holiday-let stock.

SMS Marketing in Torquay — FAQs
How should a seasonal Torquay business plan its marketing?
Build visibility in the shoulder months before demand peaks, since organic search and reviews take time to build and cannot be switched on in June.
Should I target Torbay or Torquay?
Both, carefully. 'Torbay' captures the wider area, but visitors overwhelmingly search for the named town they are staying in.
