I must be bored or boring... maybe a dumb shit... I think you're onto something!If you're not, I definitely am. I've been using text marketing for the past year and it's effective for virtually any business you can think of. I'm even working with MC to build a list of lonely house wives looking for a good lasagna recipe. What he does with those #s we collect andwhatever "special sauce" he introduces them to is totally up to him. Needless to say, it's super targeted. "Fish in a barrel", they call it? MC, if they smell like fish, throw 'em back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Quarles 1 Report post Posted May 5, 2011 Dang it that is the question I forgot to ask before I spent money building this thing... Simple asnswer is advertising once I have a user base... And I get to use it for free ... Just cost me about 3k a month... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason (AL) 1 Report post Posted May 5, 2011 I kinda suspected it would be advertising that you'd seek out once you got your list built up. Just cost me about 3k a month...$3k per month?! Wow. I've got a different platform (cheaper) and offer text services to local businesses. Tons of ways to implement text marketing.Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
