A process built for carrier reality

  1. Audit. We inspect consent capture, list source fields, current platform setup, and message history.
  2. Register. We prepare sender and A2P 10DLC details for the platform, then document approved use cases.
  3. Build. We write campaigns and automations, QA links, STOP/HELP copy, quiet hours, and suppression rules.
  4. Measure. We review 5 core KPIs weekly and change cadence before opt-outs tell us too late.

FAQ

Is SMS marketing legal in the United States?

SMS marketing can be legal in the United States when the program has clear consent, accurate records, sender registration where required, and a visible opt-out path. We build every account around consent source fields, STOP handling, quiet hours, and campaign purpose. SMS Marketing Team is not a law firm, so legal counsel should review final policy language.

What platforms does SMS Marketing Team work in?

We usually work in Klaviyo SMS, Postscript, Attentive, SimpleTexting, Twilio, and Sakari. The right platform depends on the list source, ecommerce stack, message volume, compliance needs, and reporting depth. If a brand already uses Shopify and Klaviyo email, Klaviyo SMS is often the fastest first account to audit.

How soon can a new SMS program launch?

A clean setup often needs 2 to 6 weeks because sender registration, consent capture, creative QA, and first-flow testing happen before launch. A brand with imported lists, missing opt-in proof, or a complex promotion calendar should expect a longer start. We prefer a slower first send over carrier filtering or avoidable unsubscribes.
