Political/Non Profit Messaging
It's been used for announcing a running mate, getting out the vote, and filling a stadium with supporters.
Text Messaging. There's no better, more immediate, more personal way to communicate.
Scott Goodstein, a D.C. - based campaign manager, ran all of the text
- messaging and mobile communications for President Obama's campaign, talked to the media about how text messaging
worked for the campaign. Here's his bottom line, "262 million Americans are using mobile
phones. That’s roughly 84% of the total population. It's one of the fastest - growing industries in the U.S.
And with the decline of TV viewership audiences, I think it’s a must for campaigns to be using mobile
technology."
Text messaging activities in political campaigns and fund raising drives has gotten a lot of attention. And there's good reason. SMS works because:
- 92% of SMS messages are actually delivered to recipients
