Businesses without defined values, as well as those who have lost sight of their values, are usually culprits of this purposelessness. A quick look through an "About Us" or "Culture" section of a business's website should give you a pretty good read on whether the company prioritizes purpose or just profit.
Private and profitable - each of these characteristics can exist individually, but when they co-exist, it's magical. Private, profitable businesses provide security. People who care are at the helm of these types of businesses, and they strive to be there long-term. We're a mass text messaging service that cares.
We do more than just send mass texts, a professional, business-class solution should be there for you when you need them. At Text-Em-All, we believe relationships built on trust and mutual understanding lead to growth, scalability, and success, and we pride ourselves on striving to build better relationships with our customers every day.
At Text-Em-All, your dedicated account manager is here to help you discover solutions for your business. They'll work with you closely and honestly get to know you and your goals. In addition, this most likely won't just be a one-time meeting, you'll meet quarterly to review the best bulk text messaging services.
Harness the full power of mass texting with Text-Em-All, where these sought-after features come standard.
A well-structured conversations feature should allow you to have one-on-one text conversations with your contacts directly within your account. In addition, if you need to respond to contacts after you send a mass text, it would be helpful for conversations to be easily accessible through a mobile app.
Boost engagement rates by using custom SMS keywords. These allow for specific messages to be automatically triggered, streamlining communication without taking the time to respond individually to contacts.
Research shows that text messages with personalization, such as "first name" or "last name," can yield a 4-12% better response rate to your messages. We've made it simple to add personalization to your messages with the click of a button during broadcast creation.
What's the point of using a mass messaging service if your messages and texting campaigns aren't getting delivered? We prioritize getting your important messages to the right people quickly. We don't limit, or batch, the number of contacts in your broadcast, and on average, over 95% of our messages are delivered.
Scheduled auto-replies keep the conversation going around the clock. Businesses see a 20% improvement in customer satisfaction scores by using auto-replies to provide timely responses, even when staff are not immediately available.
While it's critical to say everything you need to concisely, it can be difficult to cut down your message character count without omitting important details. For that reason, it's a good idea to look at the character count limit on your mass text message when you're deciding on your mass messaging service. We recently expanded our character count to 1,600 characters per message for Credits accounts and 960 characters for Monthly accounts.
We strive to delight our clients by being easy to work with - from simple, no-contract pricing to the straightforward, practical solutions we build. We work hard to get the details right and are driven by a genuine desire to help make things easier for our clients. Yes, we’re experts in our field. More than that, our clients find us to be partners they can depend on. So, expect us to be professional, knowledgeable, and personable!

Companies work with aggregators to deliver SMS messages. An SMS aggregator is the middleman between wireless carriers and the texting platform. Because service providers deal with large volumes of bulk text messaging, they can negotiate discounted pricing for a mass text messaging service. This allows providers to build enhanced features, interfaces, and create mass texting applications that companies can use to deliver messages from the texting platform to their customers.
This differs from messaging apps in that those services don't really send text messages but rather use the internet to deliver messages and require both the sender and recipient to have the app.
They don't have to be. Text messaging is typically based on volume and how many additional features are available from the text messaging service provider. Many mass text messaging companies operate in an enterprise SaaS environment, locking customers into high priced multi-year agreements.
Some of the common pricing models include a recurring monthly fee with overages, flat-rate monthly fee with unlimited messaging, or pay as you go where you buy credits for mass texts.
At Text-Em-All, we believe in simple, transparent pricing. We’re passionate about creating great user experiences for our customers, and Text-Em-All is a reflection of that passion.
In addition to prioritizing easy to use interfaces, we believe that our mass texting service should be affordable. We have two simple pricing options: monthly subscription or a pay-as-you-go option where you purchase credits to pay for any mass text.
Monthly subscriptions include unlimited text messaging to your group. Pricing is determined by how unique phone numbers you have and starts at just $7.50 per month for a group up to 25. That means you can send as many mass SMS messages as you want to up to 25 contacts.
The pay-as-you-go option is best for high volume mass text messages. The more credits you buy, the lower the per-credit price. One credit is equal to one 160-character outbound text, per recipient. Credits never expire. If you have a large number of contacts that change frequently, or just need to send a text for an emergency, this is the better option.

While mass sms is by no means illegal, it is heavily restricted. The U.S. government has a long history of regulation, protecting consumer privacy concerning telemarketing and robocalls, and this also extends to texting. The most critical piece of legislation narrowing the scope of acceptable telemarketing practices came with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA), which amended the original Communications Act of 1934.
The problem with the 1991 legislation was that the meaning of prior consent could be interpreted somewhat loosely. Consent was considered to be given if a customer or potential customer voluntarily gave the company their phone number. Or, if consent was implied, rather than explicit, that was also considered a green light for telemarketing calls and texts.
Text-Em-All has taken a stand against unwanted texts. Our response to the TCPA is that we've chosen not to allow political or promotional messages on our platform. Although some of the above may be legal in certain circumstances, we respectfully decline to allow this traffic on our network. See our responsible use policy or contact our support team for more information.
Furthermore, our platform has some built-in features to help you stay compliant., such as auto opt out.
Read our blog post - Is mass texting illegal?
While a blocked phone number by the carriers is out of our control, there are some best practices to keep in mind as you compose your message to minimize the chances of being blocked.
Clearly state your audience if applicable (i.e. employees, members)
Each broadcast should be associated with a single web domain owned by your organization. Although a full domain is preferred, a URL shortener may be used to deliver custom links (for example, Disney uses di.sn which they own). You should avoid common, public, or shared domain shorteners.
Clearly identify your organization or business in the body of your message.
For example - ACME Health: You have an appointment for Tuesday at 3 PM. Feel free to let us know if you have any questions.
Do not include a callback number that is different from the number you are sending the message from (Call forwarding is available for Text-Em-All text numbers)
Minimize usage of all caps and excessive punctuation when using texting services (THANKS, ASAP, @, %, !!!, ???)
There is an endless supply of mass text messaging providers available to businesses. Like most services on the web today, digging through the fine print to uncover hidden fees and charges can make it challenging to determine the real costs involved. Here's a quick breakdown of pricing models you will likely come across.
Monthly w/Unlimited ($90/month with unlimited msgs)
Monthly w/Set Messages ($49/month for 2000 msgs)
Monthly w/Unlimited Messages to Some Contacts ($35/month for unlimited msgs to 100 contacts)
Pay As You Go (5 cents per msg)
Customized Packages (submit a quote)
Beware of unlimited plans over long-codes. As mentioned above, long codes are restricted so these aren't truly unlimited. Additionally, you should also be on the lookout for hidden charges. Many service providers charge additional fees for extra features, phone numbers, additional users, and premium support. Not to mention a whole host of services that lock you into long-term contracts with fluffy SLA's (service level agreements) that bosses tend to love, but provide very little real value.
