Thank you. I've just started my own online business and was in the process of trying to figure out the absolute most efficient and effective way to reach new clients within my very own cell contact list. Out of nowhere your video popped up. Totally amazing information.

Solid video Steve. SMS is definitely effective and should be part of your 1st party data strategy. A direct channel to communicate with your customer is what gets you through bumps in the road like the iOS privacy updates.

*Knowledge Bomb!* Great information, Steve. Thanks for putting this together!

[LoveGuruGreg]

Love this! Thank you! Which platform/software do you use or recommend?

[stevenbarrios]

Thanks for the video, what are some apps for SMS messaging for Wix?

[frankk]

Thanks for the video. With mobile provider becoming aware of spam, many are blocking SMS messages as spam so it goes to a spam folder. How do you combat that?

[internetusers]

I'm not sold on sms marketing just yet. I mean, the ROI mentioned in the video does not add the fact that a human has to respond/reply and nurture those on the SMS list. While email broadcasting... well, this takes zero additional effort or thinking required when adding a few more thousand emails (or tens of thousands) to the email list. Then again, each business is different and testing sms marketing is something I should consider anyway.

Hi does Postcript works well with privy ?

[searchbug]

Hey, Steve! Just wanna share that there is another way to send SMS for free. Businesses just need to get the SMS email of phone number and send it as a regular email. It will still be received as a regular text message then. A lot of businesses don't have an idea about this yet. Hopefully this helps to lower budget cost!
