A Text Company You Can Start Using in Minutes

So you want to send texts for your business.

You know the power that texting has to really reach people—since everyone is constantly texting all the time.

And reaching more people means more engagement, and more engagement means more sales.

But starting with a new platform can be difficult and time-consuming. New tools are almost never as easy as they seem, and you end up needing to invest extra hours into figuring things out (extra hours that could and should be better spent elsewhere).

What if there was a text company that wouldn’t take hours and hours to get implemented?

What if you could have a personal representative take the time to walk you through everything you need to know as you get up and going?

What if you could get quick support from real people whenever you had questions?

Enter Mobile Text Alerts.

There are 2 steps to getting started:

1. Load in your contacts: You can do this by importing a spreadsheet, through integrations, or via one of several opt-in methods your customers can use to add themselves to your text list.

2. Send your first message: Just type your message into the platform and click "Send." It's that easy!

How to send company text messages?

You can send company text messages by first creating an account with an SMS platform. You can start a free trial (no credit card needed).

Then you'll need to load your contacts into the platform. Companies often do this by importing a spreadsheet, but there are several other methods as well. Some of those options include:

• Connecting to their CRM via API or via Zapier integrations
• Giving their prospective subscribers a particular word to text in, which will automatically subscribe them
• Giving their prospective subscribers a link to an automatically-generated web form, which they can fill out in order to sign up
• Giving their prospective subscribers an automatically-generated QR code, which they can scan in order to sign up

Lastly, you'll select your recipients, type out your message, and hit "Send." Alternatively, you can schedule your message to send out at a particular date/time, or you can create automated messaging flows by setting up a series of messages to go out over a designated period of time.

How much does it cost?

Plans will vary based primarily on how many messages you'd like to send on a monthly basis, starting at $19 per month.

What are some different use cases for SMS?

There are almost endless possibilities for using SMS for your business, but most of them fall into 2 main categories: "marketing" and "alerts."

"Marketing" would included sending texts such as:

• Promotions
• Product announcements
• Awareness campaigns
• Customer engagement

"Alerts" would be more geared toward internal company notifications such as:

• Company announcements
• Meeting/event reminders
• HR notices
• Emergency notices

Some companies only use SMS for marketing, while others only use it for alerts, while others use it for both.

How do I know how many messages I'll need?

You'll want to take into account how many estimated recipients you'll have for your messages, and consider how often you'll want to text them.

For example, if you have an estimated recipient base of 1,000, and you plan on texting 2–3 times per week, you'll need a plan that gives you at least 3,000 messaging credits per month (since each recipient counts as a single message).

Note also that longer messages use up more messaging credits, so you may want to give yourself extra wiggle room.
