Text Messaging

Right message + Right People + Right time

98% of texts are read within the first 2 minutes.

Don’t try to compete with flooded inboxes and social feeds, send a direct text instead. It’s instant, clear, and effective—exactly how communication should be.

TEXT MESSAGES

Make your message
the priority. Easily.

For optimal clarity and participation, it’s critical that announcements, time-sensitive reminders, alerts, sign-ups, and more are received in real-time.

Text messages get important, timely communications in front of the right people, right away.

TARGETED MESSAGES

A direct line to your people.

Oftentimes, messages don’t need to go to everyone. Admins can send targeted messages to specific groups with tags and segmentation.

As a result, members don’t get bombarded with information that isn’t relevant to them.”

TEXT-TO-GIVE

Help members tap into generosity.

Text-to-give allows members and visitors to securely give right from their phones without any frustrating logins.

Members simply:

Text the keyword “Give” to your designated number, then click on the link.
Choose donation amount + payment method
Boom! Gift complete.

“We reach more people
with notifications than
we did with just email.”

Amy Eger, Financial & Stewardship Coordinator, All Saints Parish

EASY + VERSATILE TEXTING ACTIONS

Call your members to action with a text.

With Text-to-act, members simply text a keyword like “Connect or Volunteer” to receive relevant forms and next steps.

See for yourself. Text “connect” to 816.760.2684

You can also send links via text. Whether it’s a Spotify worship playlist or a form to buy a T-shirt, text your members the links they need on the go.

CONNECTED MESSAGING

Everything works Together+

Text a member survey. Share a volunteer form. Send links to features and content in your app. The list goes on.

Because text messaging is connected to all your Together+ tools, you can do so much more simultaneously, from one place—communicate, make next steps easy, gather information, and beyond.

“As we started to increase our texting we noticed we had about 200 more people on specifically the text-to-phone-number list than we did on our email list. I noticed if we sent out a text, action happened almost immediately. We’d also have 20 or 30 people sign up in the next 5 minutes after the text message hit as opposed to when an email goes out we maybe get 1 or 2 people sign up… because they may or may not open that email.

For us we use aware3 texting as one of our primary modes of communication because it is effective.”

— Creative Arts Pastor, Conor, The Gathering KC
