SMS and email for political campaigns
Campaign messaging is deadline work. Events, shifts and voting days are fixed dates, and the message either lands before them or it is wasted. Registration for political messaging takes time, so start earlier than feels necessary.

Volunteer coordination
Shift confirmations, location changes and thank-yous. This is operational messaging, and it is where texting earns its keep.
Get out the vote
Dated reminders with polling information. The window is short and the send has to be ready before it opens.
Campaign message examples
Starting points to adapt, not messages to send as written. Swap in your own details and add the opt-out line your sender setup requires.
[Committee]: [Candidate] town hall on [date], [location]. RSVP: [link]. [Required disclaimer] [Opt-out instructions]
[Committee]: Your canvassing shift is [date] at [time], meeting at [location]. [Required disclaimer] [Opt-out instructions]
[Committee]: Polls are open [date] until [time]. Find your polling place: [link]. [Required disclaimer] [Opt-out instructions]
WHY CAMPAIGNS USE THIS.
Everything a campaign sends has a deadline attached. An event on Thursday, a shift on Saturday, a polling day that does not move. A text lands in minutes, which is the only reason to use the channel and a very good one.
One important practical point: political messaging requires carrier registration that takes weeks rather than days. Come to us early in the cycle and it is straightforward. Come to us the week of the event and it will not be.
One price, one campaign
$399 covers up to 100,000 messages, charged once. When the cycle ends there is nothing left running and nothing to cancel.
Built for surge sending
Campaign volume is lumpy by nature. Monthly plans price for a steady programme you do not have.
Start early
Registration and verification sit ahead of your first send. Budget two to four weeks and work backwards from your event date.
How much does a political SMS campaign cost?
$399 for up to 100,000 messages, $599 for up to 500,000 and $899 for up to 2,000,000, charged once per campaign, with nothing continuing after the cycle. Email starts at $499.
How far ahead should we order?
Two to four weeks before you intend to send. Political messaging requires carrier registration and verification that cannot be compressed because your event is close.
Can we run several sends across a cycle?
Yes. Each send is its own campaign at its own price, so you pay when you send rather than every month.
What do you need from us?
The list, the message and the sending window. We arrange a private upload link after payment clears.
