Abstract
This study examined consumers' acceptance of SMS advertising, as one of the mobile marketing instruments that is increasingly popular in accessing consumers through their mobile devices, by empirically investigating the factors that influence consumers' attitudes towards and acceptance of SMS advertising. A comprehensive model was developed and tested with a sample size of 321 Jordanian mobile phone users, and analysed quantitatively using structural equation modelling-partial least squares (SEM-PLS) method. The findings indicated that SMS advertising values (entertainment and credibility) and SMS content (clarity and relevancy) as well as subjective norm and consumer control have a positive significant influence on consumer attitude and acceptance of SMS advertising. The results represent novel findings that hold important implications and recommendations for future marketing research and practice.
