Text Messaging

Getting Started

Like an email list, we can procure a list of mobile contacts for you and import it into our texting solution. We can also build this list organically by collecting data on your other digital channels. Also like an email list, users can add or remove themselves from the texting distribution at any time. We will help you build a healthy list of contacts for your text messaging campaigns. These contacts can provide valuable, real-time feedback, or you can blast out a quick text to them in order to drive a particular action – like going to vote.

Design

Text message campaigns are keyword-based. A keyword is the message – like a campaign slogan – that users can text to a short code number. We will work with you and your team to include texting promotions on your website, social accounts, push cards, yard signs, TV advertising, print advertising, radio advertising, and direct mail.

Content

The best way to grow your text message contact list is to have strong calls to action – where the user is inherently interested in providing feedback, or in getting feedback from you. We can help you generate this strong messaging, and then implement it into your real-time activities – like town halls, debates, or other public appearances.

Reach

We won’t just help your establish and grow your reach with the above-mentioned methods, we will actively look for opportunities to leverage this proprietary reach. By literally mobilizing your supporters, we can help you drive GOTV efforts, fundraising, and support. 

Data

You can use our text messaging solution to do a real-time poll of sentiment about a policy or issue. Instantly, we can give you the results of that poll – which can either foster further discussion or even help you with a real-time adjustment in your messaging. Either way, those who respond are giving you their cellphone number – thus “opting in” for later text messages. Which means they can become part of your mobilization strategy at a later date.
