Who Uses Our Mass Texting Software?

With everyone clamoring for your contacts' attention, how do you bypass the endless clutter of email and social media and get your messages seen?

You do it with mass texting.

Whether your message is commercial or “informational”, sending bulk SMS gives you direct access to your contacts via their most trusted communication channel.

When you've got an important message that just can't be missed, you can't risk entrusting it to email or social media.

Only mass texting delivers your message directly via the same channel that your contacts reserve for communication with their nearest and dearest.

This is why every text message is read by its recipient and why you must use it yourself.

Effective communication within large organizations and municipalities can be a challenge, especially since messages are typically sent on heavily congested channels like email, which means they're often missed or ignored.

Mass texting commands your recipient's instant attention and gets your message seen.  Great for notifications of service outages, general updates, COVID outbreaks and so forth.

Made in Canada. Hosted in Canada. Since 2013.

You'll love how easy it is to manage your SMS or MMS campaigns with BROADCASTsms. It's simple, user-friendly, and most importantly, designed for regular people.

Including a web link in your message? Track how many times the link is clicked and by whom. It's a great way to see how your messages are resonating with an audience.

Unlimited Keywords

We don't nickel and dime you by charging an outrageous fee for every additional keyword you need. Every one of our accounts comes with an unlimited amount.

Follow-Up Campaigns

Create custom follow-up mass texting campaigns. You can choose to send messages at a specific interval (i.e., every 7 days), specific days of the week, or specific days of the month.

CASL-Compliant

Our templates include messaging required by Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation and unsubscribes are managed automatically in the software with no input from you.

Optional Two-Way Chat

Want to respond directly to client responses and questions? Enable two-way communication to support your audience with one-to-one text chat.

Unique Access / 2FA-Enabled

Provide select staff with unique, independent access and enable 2-factor authentication for additional security and peace of mind.

Zapier Integration

Connect with hundreds of unique applications via our Zapier integration (late fall 2022) 

QR Codes

Built in QR codes make it easy for contacts to subscribe to receive your SMS promotions or updates. Think of them as a short cut to a destination or an action.  For example, scanning a QR code can direct your customer to an online web form or it can populate your customer's text app with a number and a keyword for a painless handset initiated opt in. 

Mobile Registration Form

Generate opt ins from your custom web form by sharing a link in emails or on social media. Or load it up on a tablet and feature it in your place of business!

Active Clicker

Add your most active “link clickers” to their own specific group for independent messaging. Now you can message your most engaged customers independently!

Rollover Messaging Credits

Any unused messaging credits left over at the end of the month simply “roll over” to the next one. This ensures you never lose any credits, ever.

Message Personalization

Use “tags” to personalize your message or add pieces of custom data to your messages and provide your contacts with a friendly and totally unique experience.

Send SMS or MMS

Send simple text messages or send MMS, which combines text with an image.

Messages with images are more engaging, are easy to scan and generate higher levels of engagement and click throughs.

As a result, MMS is fantastic for promotional campaigns! 

256-Bit Encryption

We protect your clients' data with 256-bit encryption. We maintain PCI DSS compliance and adhere to industry best practices to ensure the safety of your data.

Regular Back Ups

We back up data regularly to two different data centers in separate locations to ensure continued operation even in the face of a major disaster.

API

Integrate directly with your own application or CRM via our internal API.

Concierge Onboarding

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do you have a "pay as you go" option?

Yes. Pay just $19.99/month and add messaging credits as you need them. No monthy top ups. 

What is the difference between SMS and MMS?

SMS stands for “simple text service” and refers to plain text messages.

MMS stands for “multimedia messaging service” and includes a combination of image and text, as featured earlier on this page.

SMS are measured in 160 character segments, with multi-segment messages requiring 7 characters per segment for concatenation.

MMS allows for up to 1600 characters of text (although we would never suggest you send text messages that long). 

What is right for my business - SMS or MMS?

It really depends on two things…

  1. The nature of your business.
  2. The length of the messages you plan on sending.

If you're planning on sending short text messages for “informational” purposes (service outages, COVID updates, etc.), SMS is fine.

When it comes to promotional content though, MMS is the king of the castle.

Using images boosts the impact of your promotional campaigns (human beings are “visual” creatures) making them easier to scan resulting in better click throughs and a higher return on investment (ROI).

In addition, MMS includes 1600 characters which means a lot of flexibility for crafting your message.

While we can't speak for your business, almost all our clients who use our service to send promotional messages use MMS.

 

Can I send SMS from an MMS account?

Yes.

Your account can be set up as a “hybrid” account, allowing you to toggle between SMS and MMS at any time.

Can I use my business' phone number with your service?

If your business has a standard land line (not a VOIP service or cell phone) not already provisioned for SMS, then the short answer is yes.

However, we only recommend this for US businesses.

In Canada, there is no way to register a standard 10 digit long code (i.e., phone number) for mass texting, which means there's a good chance your messages will end up being blocked or filtered.

In the US standard phone numbers can be registered for mass texting campaigns, so it's perfectly acceptable to do so.

What are the extra carrier fees associated with US accounts?

If you want to use your US business' landline number for your messaging, then we will need to register it for bulk messaging.

This requires a one time fee and monthly campaign fee (the amount of which depends on your message volume and the type of messages you send. Prices start at under $2/month).

Please note that these fees are levied by our partners – they are not our fees, and we do not receive any of the funds. 

To avoid these fees, we recommend sending your messages over a special toll free number.

Contact us to discuss.   

Does your service integrate with Shopify?

We are currently in the final stages of getting our Shopify App approved and listed in the Shopify app store.

This app will allow you to collect your customer's cell phone numbers at the checkout and add them to a list in BROADCASTsms for the bulk texting of promotional messages.

For more details on our app and instructions directions, click here.

 

Does your service have a Zapier integration?

Yes.

BROADCASTsms can be integrated with 1,000's of different applications though Zapier. 

Do I need to install software on my computer to use BROADCASTsms?

No. BROADCASTsms is cloud-based. You can access the software with a modern browser anywhere you have a computer and internet access.

Do I need to sign a long term contract?

No. We operate on a month to month basis. You may cancel anytime.

Do you bill in US or Canadian dollars?

We can bill in either currency. We are Canadian company and all our pricing and billing is done in CAD$ by default. However, we are happy to accommodate US customers with billing in USD$.

Is BROADCASTsms secure?

Yes. The BROADCASTsms application is hosted on secure servers in SOC2 certified data centers. All critical database content is encrypted with 256-bit encrytion. We maintain PCI DSS compliance with regular security scanning.

Can I see the software before committing to subscription?

Yes. Click here to book a ZOOM demo for live walk through of the software. 

Will you help me set everything up?

Of course. We'll do everything possible to ensure your success with our system. 

What differentiates you from your competitors?

Personalized service and commitment to our clients is one thing. The second is a massive focus on developing highly usable and unintimidating software. We are often told by clients that our platform is the easiest they have encountered. 

Where is client data stored?

Client data is stored encrypted on Canadian soil. 

I have a cannabis business. Can I send SMS/MMS using BROADCASTsms?

Canadian businesses can send promotional messages but there are some stipulations and restrictions. Contact us for details.
