Pro tips

  • Keep first messages short and conversational with a clear call-to-action.
  • Include sender identification: "This is [Name] with [Campaign]...".
  • Always include "STOP=END" for compliance.
  • Test messages on multiple devices (iPhone, Android) before full send.
  • Start small - send to 100–500 contacts first, refine based on responses.
