Text Messaging

Texting is fast and exact.
Any cell phone can receive texts. No smart phone or data plan is required.
All incoming texts are free to receive if you have a text message option with your mobile device plan.
There are three ways to initiate a mobile texting relationship:
- via mobile opt-in
- by online subscription
- through a registration process where cell phone numbers arerecorded then uploaded onto the text messaging platform.
Of the three, mobile opt-in is the easiest and quickest and can be done on location, any time, anywhere.
Open the text messaging application on your cell phone. Compose a new textmessage. Text the word “demo” without the “ ” to short code 767638. Within seconds, you should receive a response regardless of your carrier.
How does mobile opt-in work?
Go to text messaging on your cell phone. Compose a new text message to 767638. Text the word “demo” without the “ ”Click send.
Try it. . . .
Your auto-response is personalized for your event.
Interested fans sign-up for your service to enter a contest, access information, gain entry to an event, etc.
Once registered, a fan can be texted as per the details of what they signed-up for or until they reply to a text message with the word STOP.
Subscribers will sign up for the day or weekend but you must inform them what they are subscribing to, how many texts will be sent and when the subscription ends. It is always best to tell subscribers that their number will be deleted at the end of the weekend.
We would create several keywords for the weekend event, each with its own purpose.
