Text Messaging
accesible
Texting has become inaccessible for candidates and organizations that cannot pay massive fees to the vendor on top of the costs to send as well as acquiring a list.
At BlueWave we are trying to solve most of that problem. We won’t be charging a retaining fee. Fees the clients will pay will be transparent. You can provide or buy a list and we will work with you on the best way to deliver the best results on your texting.
down-ballot support
BWC has clients up and down the ballot. Texting is used as a way to fundraise and a way to communicate with voters. However, if you are operating on a down-ballot budget you can’t afford retainer fees, you can’t afford digital buys, you can’t afford mailers, and also pay for a texting platform in house or some massive DC Consulting firm to send text messages.
That’s where BWC hopes to step in and support you.
all in house
All of these services are done in house at BlueWave Campaigns. We can help think through messaging, cost benefit, budgets, and targets. BWC does not own lists so we would have to work with vendors to find you a list if you do not already have one.
Pricing
Per Text Cost
Each text has a different cost. Depending on the length of the text and whether or not you include media, these prices can fluctuate. We will work with you to make sure these cost fit within your budget and make sense for your campaign.
Hourly Rate
Each campaign will operate differently. However, at BWC we will be transparent about our hourly costs. What the time was used for an we will do our best to expedite when we can to, again, help keep costs as low as possible while not charging a retainer.
Other Fees
There may be other fees incurred throughout the process. Keep in mind MMS v. SMS are different per text costs. The number of characters in a text can impact costs. Taxes or other fees may also need to be included.
Lists
BWC does not own or provide lists to customers, yet. You can purchase one and we can work with you to find the best deal for your needs or you can provide BWC with a list to work from. Any list you provide BWC will not maintain beyond the engagement.
