Turn the Immediacy of Texting into a Powerful Sales Tool

Immediacy, The unique ability to provide detailed information instantly, to anyone, anywhere sets texting apart from other forms of communication. Text messaging is poised to become the most powerful marketing tool of the century. Harnessing that power is the challenge that has everyone scrambling, from savvy presidential candidates to forward-thinking police departments to cutting-edge real estate agents.

Barack Obama's presidential campaign has pioneered the aggressive use of text messaging as a political organizing tool. In our increasingly cell-phone centered world - many under 40s don't even have landlines -- people carry their cells with them 24/7. Texting doesn't depend on computer availability for message checking or, worse, on the questionable and often lethargic delivery of snail mail. It allows you to leave detailed messages to keep people instantly in the loop. Obama's savvy campaign managers have used texting to alert followers to last minute campaign stops, pass along new platform info, rebut campaign ads from opponent McCain and get out the vote. Texting is changing the way politicians connect with their constituents.

Immediacy is also what prompted the Los Angeles Police Department to launch its anonymous SMS text messaging tipline. Text-a-Tip allows nervous citizens to tip police the minute they spot suspicious activity without calling attention to themselves. A third-party provider ensures that the tipster's identity remains anonymous.
