We offer 4 methods for adding subscribers to your account: - Spreadsheet Import - Import your existing contacts by uploading a spreadsheet to your account dashboard. There is no limit to the number of subscribers you can import. - Text Message Opt-in - Have your subscriber opt-in for your messages by texting a specific keyword to your 5-digit shortcode. It’s common to post this opt-in method around the jobsight using signs. Go ahead, test it out! Text “tryit” to 74121 and receive a text reply. - Sign-up page - Once your MTA account is active, we’ll generate a sign-up page for all your potential future subscribers.
