Marketing agencies are constantly looking for ways to deliver more value to clients.
A typical agency may already provide services such as social media marketing, digital advertising, branding, website development, content creation, search engine optimization, email marketing, lead generation and campaign management.
But there is another area that can complement many of these services: business communication technology.
When a marketing campaign generates leads, someone has to follow up with those leads.
When a business launches a promotion, customers need to be informed.
When an e-commerce company receives an order, customers may need confirmation.
When an organization runs an event, attendees may need reminders.
When a company has thousands of customers, communicating with them individually becomes inefficient.
This is where a marketing agency can add MSpace to its client-service portfolio.
MSpace provides business communication services including Bulk SMS, WhatsApp Business, Bulk Email, USSD, Short Code, M-Pesa Integration, APIs, Email-to-SMS, integrated messaging and other communication solutions.
For agencies, this creates two opportunities.
First, you can introduce useful communication solutions to existing clients.
Second, if you join the MSpace Affiliate Program, you can earn commissions from qualifying new clients you refer.
Why Should a Marketing Agency Care About Communication Technology?
Marketing does not end when someone sees an advertisement.
In many businesses, the real commercial opportunity begins after a customer clicks, registers, enquires, buys or submits their contact information.
Consider a simple campaign.
An agency runs Facebook and Instagram advertisements for a property developer.
The campaign generates 500 leads.
What happens next?
If the sales team has to manually call every lead, follow up with individual WhatsApp messages and keep separate spreadsheets, a large portion of those leads may never receive timely follow-up.
A communication platform can become part of the wider marketing system.
The agency can help the client think beyond:
"How do we generate more leads?"
and toward:
"How do we communicate effectively with the leads we already have?"
That is where MSpace can fit into the conversation.
MSpace Can Become an Additional Service You Recommend
You do not necessarily need to become a telecommunications company.
You can simply make MSpace one of the solutions you recommend when a client's communication requirements justify it.
For example, your agency may provide:
Social media management
Facebook and Instagram advertising
Google advertising
Website development
SEO
Content marketing
Lead generation
Email marketing
Branding
Marketing automation
You can then add:
Business messaging and communication solutions through MSpace.
This makes your agency's offering more valuable because you are addressing another part of the customer journey.
1. Add Bulk SMS to Marketing Campaigns
Bulk SMS can complement many marketing campaigns.
MSpace's Bulk SMS service supports branded sender IDs, personalization, scheduled campaigns, contact uploads and delivery reporting.
Imagine an agency managing a campaign for a retail company.
The agency could help the client coordinate:
Social media → Lead generation → SMS follow-up → Website → Purchase
For example, customers who have opted into communications could receive information about a promotion, event, product launch or other relevant update.
This does not mean replacing social media advertising.
It means adding another communication channel to the marketing strategy.
2. Help Clients Follow Up With Leads
Lead generation is one of the most common services marketing agencies provide.
But generating leads is only half of the process.
A business also needs to follow up.
Suppose an agency generates 1,000 leads for a real estate company.
Those leads could be interested in different properties, locations and price ranges.
The agency can help the client develop a communication strategy in which appropriate customers receive relevant follow-up messages.
For example:
"Hello James, the three-bedroom apartments you requested information about are now available for viewing. Contact our sales team to book an appointment."
Personalized communication can make follow-up feel more relevant than sending the exact same message to everyone.
MSpace supports personalized Bulk SMS, including adding recipient information to messages.
3. Combine WhatsApp With Other Marketing Channels
Many businesses already use WhatsApp to communicate with customers.
Marketing agencies can therefore recommend WhatsApp Business solutions as part of a broader customer communication strategy.
MSpace offers WhatsApp Business messaging with features including rich media, interactive templates, broadcasts, analytics and REST API integration.
This can be particularly useful for businesses that want to combine marketing campaigns with direct customer conversations.
For example:
Instagram advertisement → WhatsApp conversation → Sales follow-up → Customer purchase
Or:
Google advertisement → Website form → WhatsApp follow-up → Sales appointment
The marketing agency can help design the customer journey while MSpace provides the communication infrastructure.
4. Add SMS to E-Commerce Marketing
E-commerce clients have many communication points.
Customers may need updates about:
Orders
Payments
Dispatch
Delivery
Promotions
New products
Customer service
Account activity
An agency managing an e-commerce brand can therefore recommend appropriate messaging infrastructure alongside advertising and content marketing.
MSpace's API documentation also provides programmatic SMS functionality, making it possible for developers to connect messaging with business systems.
This creates an opportunity for agencies that work with developers or provide technical services themselves.
5. Make Communication Part of Your Marketing Retainer
Marketing agencies often operate on monthly retainers.
A client may pay the agency every month for ongoing services such as:
Social media management
Content creation
Advertising
SEO
Campaign management
Email marketing
Communication technology can become another component of the client's overall marketing strategy.
For example, the agency could discuss:
"What happens after someone responds to your campaign?"
If the client has no effective follow-up mechanism, you have identified another area where you can help.
The MSpace service can then be introduced as a potential solution.
6. Help Clients Automate Repetitive Communication
Automation is increasingly important because businesses do not want employees manually performing repetitive tasks all day.
A marketing agency could identify communication processes that happen repeatedly.
Examples include:
New customer notifications
Appointment reminders
Order updates
Payment reminders
Event reminders
Lead follow-ups
Promotional campaigns
Customer alerts
Where the client's systems support integration, APIs can allow applications to trigger communication automatically.
MSpace provides SMS APIs and WhatsApp Business API functionality, giving technical teams ways to integrate messaging into business applications.
This is particularly valuable for agencies that already work with web developers, software developers or IT consultants.
7. Add Bulk Email to Your Marketing Offering
Email marketing remains useful for businesses that need longer-form communication.
A marketing agency could therefore build a broader communication strategy around:
SMS + WhatsApp + Email
Each channel can serve a different purpose.
SMS
Useful when the message needs to be concise and direct.
Useful for interactive conversations, rich media and customer engagement.
Useful for newsletters, longer announcements, campaigns and detailed information.
Instead of recommending one channel for everything, the agency can help the client determine where each channel fits.
MSpace currently lists Bulk Email and Bulk Email API among its communication services.
8. Help Clients Turn Campaigns Into Complete Customer Journeys
A sophisticated marketing campaign is not simply an advertisement.
It is a journey.
For example:
Advertisement
↓
Landing page
↓
Lead capture
↓
SMS or WhatsApp follow-up
↓
Sales conversation
↓
Purchase
↓
Customer notification
↓
Retention campaign
An agency that can help a client manage more stages of this journey becomes more valuable.
This is one of the strongest reasons to consider MSpace as part of your client-service portfolio.
9. Agencies Can Work With Developers on API Projects
Not every MSpace opportunity will involve manually sending messages from a dashboard.
Some businesses need communication connected directly to their software.
For example, a developer may need an application to automatically send an SMS when:
A customer registers
A payment is received
An order is created
An appointment is booked
A transaction is completed
A system generates an alert
MSpace's developer documentation provides an SMS API for sending messages and querying delivery information. It also documents WhatsApp Business API functionality.
This means a marketing agency with a technical team, web-development partner or IT partner can identify more sophisticated opportunities.
10. Marketing Agencies Can Earn Referral Commissions
This is where the MSpace Affiliate Program becomes particularly interesting.
You may already have businesses coming to you for marketing services.
Some of those businesses will also need communication services.
Instead of simply telling them:
"You should find a Bulk SMS provider."
you can introduce them to MSpace through your affiliate referral.
The current MSpace affiliate program advertises 7% commission on confirmed, approved sales. The program also provides a 30-day referral cookie and allows affiliates to track clicks, referrals, sales and earnings through their dashboard.
For example, MSpace currently illustrates:
| Example Service | Example Package | 7% Example Commission |
|---|---|---|
| Bulk SMS | KES 5,000 | KES 350 |
| WhatsApp Business API | KES 15,000 | KES 1,050 |
| M-Pesa Integration | KES 20,000 | KES 1,400 |
| USSD | KES 36,000 | KES 2,520 |
| Enterprise Bundle | KES 100,000+ | KES 7,000+ |
These are examples published by MSpace; actual earnings depend on the confirmed and approved sale value.
You Do Not Have to Change Your Entire Business Model
An important point for agencies is that affiliate marketing does not have to replace your existing business.
You can continue charging clients for your normal services.
The MSpace affiliate opportunity can simply sit alongside your existing agency model.
For example, your agency could provide:
Marketing strategy
Social media management
Advertising
Content
Lead generation
Communication technology referral
That gives you another potential revenue stream while making your agency more useful to clients.
Which Clients Should a Marketing Agency Introduce to MSpace?
Look for clients that communicate with significant numbers of people.
Potential prospects include:
Real Estate Companies
For property inquiries, viewing reminders, new listings and customer updates.
Schools
For parent communication, notices, reminders and school announcements.
Healthcare Businesses
For appointment-related communication and other appropriate customer notifications.
E-Commerce Companies
For customer updates, promotions and order-related communication.
Hotels and Restaurants
For bookings, promotions, customer engagement and event communication.
SACCOs and Financial Organizations
For customer notifications and reminders.
Logistics Companies
For delivery and operational notifications.
NGOs
For appropriate community and organizational communication.
Retail Businesses
For promotions, customer alerts and campaign communication.
Professional Services
For appointment reminders, announcements and customer updates.
The important principle is simple:
Do not look for businesses merely because they can buy a service. Look for businesses that have a genuine communication problem that the service can solve.
How to Position MSpace to Your Clients
Avoid making the conversation sound like:
"I have an affiliate link. Please use it."
That is not a strong marketing strategy.
Instead, make the conversation about the client's business.
Ask questions such as:
How do you currently communicate with your customers?
How many customers do you contact each month?
How do you follow up with new leads?
Do you send SMS campaigns?
Are your messages branded?
Do you need automated notifications?
Do you use WhatsApp for customer communication?
Do you need delivery reports?
Do you have software that needs to send SMS automatically?
Are your staff spending too much time sending messages manually?
The answers can tell you whether MSpace is relevant.
Your Agency Can Become a Better Problem Solver
Clients increasingly expect agencies to understand business outcomes, not just marketing channels.
A client does not necessarily care whether the solution involves SMS, WhatsApp, email or an API.
They care about problems such as:
"How do I reach my customers?"
"How do I follow up with leads?"
"How do I notify customers quickly?"
"How do I automate repetitive communication?"
"How do I improve customer engagement?"
An agency that can identify these problems and connect clients with appropriate technology becomes more valuable.
A Simple MSpace Referral Strategy for Agencies
You can build MSpace referrals into your normal agency workflow.
Step 1: Audit the Client's Communication
During onboarding, ask how the client currently communicates with customers.
Step 2: Identify Gaps
Look for manual processes, poor follow-up, fragmented communication or high-volume messaging requirements.
Step 3: Match the Need to a Service
The appropriate solution could involve SMS, WhatsApp, email, USSD, an API or another MSpace service.
Step 4: Introduce MSpace
Explain why the service may be relevant and allow the client to evaluate it.
Step 5: Use Your Affiliate Link
If you are an MSpace affiliate, direct the new prospect through your referral link.
Step 6: Track Your Referral
MSpace provides affiliate tracking through its dashboard. The program states that referrals are tracked for 30 days.
Step 7: Continue Serving the Client
Your agency relationship does not have to end after making the introduction.
You can continue managing the client's marketing strategy while MSpace handles the communication service.
Agencies Can Also Refer MSpace to Other Agencies
Your network may extend beyond your direct clients.
You may know:
PR agencies
Branding agencies
Web agencies
SEO agencies
Social media managers
Advertising agencies
Freelance marketers
Digital consultants
Business coaches
IT consultants
These professionals also have clients.
If they identify businesses that need messaging services, they can potentially become MSpace affiliates themselves or refer eligible businesses through their own referral relationships.
Important Affiliate Rules
Affiliate marketing should always be based on genuine referrals.
MSpace's current terms prohibit spam, unsolicited promotional communications, false or exaggerated claims, cookie stuffing, artificial traffic and impersonation. Referrals must also be genuinely new clients.
That means your best strategy is not to blast thousands of businesses with the same affiliate link.
Instead:
Identify a real need → educate the client → recommend the relevant solution → provide your referral link → allow the client to make the decision.
This approach protects your reputation and creates better-quality referrals.
