RCS open rates are hitting 70-85%. Email sits at 20%. That's not a rounding error. For a performance marketing team spending six figures a month on lead gen, that's the difference between a campaign that pays and one that quietly bleeds budget. RCS also delivers 10x higher engagement than traditional channels. The verified sender badge alone boosts trust by 88%. The US is now at roughly 75% RCS adoption, with global business messaging traffic up 50% year over year. Smart teams aren't waiting for this to become obvious. They're already running AI agents over RCS: agents that respond to inbound leads in seconds, qualify on the first reply, and hand off hot prospects before a competitor even picks up the phone. And the cost side is moving too. Hybrid AI outbound pods are reporting 54% lower cost per qualified opportunity. The channel advantage is real. The window to use it before everyone else figures this out is also real. And shrinking fast. What's your team doing about this? ↓
